JESUS CHRIST IS: God Savior Coming Messiah Healer Baptizer Miracle Worker
JESUS PERFORMED MANY MIRACLES (John 21:25 NIV) Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written.
HOLY SPIRIT DOWNLOADS ARE FOR TODAY --- IT S HOW GOD SPEAKS TODAY We Pentecostals Believe God Speaks. We Need To Make Sure We Recognize His Voice And Hear Him.
Why Is It Important To Hear From God 1. It s the only way that we can be SAVED 2. It assures us that we are in GOD S FAMILY 3. It protects us from DANGER and MISTAKES 4. It is a secret to a SPIRITUALLY productive life
How Does God Speak to Us Today? 1. By the Holy Spirit thru THE BIBLE 2. By the Holy Spirit thru THE CHURCH 3. Thru the impression of THE HOLY SPIRIT 4. The Holy Spirit speaks thru CIRCUMSTANCES
How Do We Know If The Download Is Of God? Three Voices That Try To Influence Us: 1. It Could Be GOD 2. It Could Be SELF 3. It Could Be THE DEVIL (Those Who Belong To Him)
Don t Always Believe Everything You Hear; Test It! Does it agree with THE BIBLE? Does it make me more like CHRIST? Does my CHURCH family confirm it? Is it consistent with how GOD MADE ME? Does it concern my RESPONSIBILITY? Is it CONVICTING rather than condemning? Do I sense God s PEACE about it?
Jesus Says : "My Sheep Know My Voice" --As You Grow In Christ You Will Know When The Lord Is Speaking -- You Will Recognize His Voice As You Become Spiritually Mature You Can Begin To Distinguish Between God's Voice And Anything Else " You Can Know In Your Knower"
When We Want To Know God's Will There Are Three Things Which Always Concur: 1. The Inward Impulse (That Is The Spirit) 2. The Word Of God 3.

The Ability To Love Is Given To Us Thru Our Relationship With God 1 John 4:7-8 (NIV) (7) Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. (8) Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 1 John 4:19-21 (NIV) (19) We love because he first loved us. (20) If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. (21) And he has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother.
