Exodus 35 : 20-29….Obedience means action!
Then all the congregation of the people of Israel departed from the presence of Moses. And they came, everyone whose heart stirred him, and everyone whose spirit moved him, and brought the LORD’S contribution to be used for the tent of meeting, and for all its service, and for the holy garments. So they came,Continue reading “Exodus 35 : 20-29….Obedience means action!”
Exodus 30: 11-16….Israel was then a Theocracy!
The LORD said to Moses, “When you take the census of the people of Israel, then each shall give a ransom for his life to the LORD when you number them, that there be no plague among them when you number them.

Revelation 2: 18-29….A self-proclaimed prophetess
“And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write: ‘The words of the Son of God, who has eyes like a flame of fire, and whose feet are like burnished bronze.“‘I know your works, your love and faith and service and patient endurance, and that your latter works exceed the first.

1 Corinthians 14: 6-16….Making the good news known.
Now, brothers, if I come to you speaking in tongues, how will I benefit you unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or teaching? If even lifeless instruments, such as the flute or the harp, do not give distinct notes, how will anyone know what is played? And if the bugle givesContinue reading “1 Corinthians 14: 6-16….Making the good news known.”
1 Corinthians 14: 1-6….Prophecy and Tongues
Pursue love, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy. For one who speaks in a tongue speaks not to men but to God; for no one understands him, but he utters mysteries in the Spirit. On the other hand, the one who prophesies speaks to people for their upbuilding and encouragementContinue reading “1 Corinthians 14: 1-6….Prophecy and Tongues”

1 Corinthians 12: 12-20….A Body has many bits and pieces!
For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and all were made to drink of one SpiritFor the body doesContinue reading “1 Corinthians 12: 12-20….A Body has many bits and pieces!”
1 Corinthians 12: 1-11….Christians, by the will of God have different ‘gifts’.
Now concerning spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not want you to be uninformed. You know that when you were pagans you were led astray to mute idols, however you were led. Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking in the Spirit of God ever says “Jesus is accursed!” and no one canContinue reading “1 Corinthians 12: 1-11….Christians, by the will of God have different ‘gifts’.”
