Showing titles in Pneumatology

To have found God and still seek Him is a love paradox, rejected by the too-easy-satisfied religious person, but justified by the offspring of the flaming heart in happy experience. This heavenly contradiction was expressed by Saint Bernard of Clairvaux in a musical four-line poem that will be quickly grasped by every worshiping soul.

The Power-And-Love Sandwich tells the story of Jonathan Brenneman’s journey into the miraculous. As part of the journey, Jonathan shares the ensuing victories and struggles, including disappointment, misunderstandings, and the fear of pride. Throughout scripture, God reveals his love and nature through works of power. The saying “Seek God’s face and not his hand” sounds nice, but it is unscriptural. It leaves us with a far inferior revelation of God’s love and Jesus’ character. The Power and Love Sandwich: •Includes many testimonies of healing, signs, and wonders •Exposes ...

The Bible clearly highlights the New Testament gift of prophecy as a powerful blessing that is meant to encourage, exhort, and comfort the body of Christ. Tragically, however, decades of unbalanced teaching, unaccountable prophecies, and unhealthy prophets have driven many churches and individuals to abandon the prophetic ministry altogether. In these troubling times the church cannot afford to neglect any of the Kingdom resources that God has made available to His people. "Prophesy" lays out a clear theological framework for the purpose and necessity of the gift of prophecy among us today....

La Bible enseigne que Dieu est un en substance et trois en personne—le Père, le Fils et le Saint-Esprit. Bien que la Trinité soit clairement enseignée dans la Bible, celle-ci a été attaquée tout au long de l’histoire de l’Église, et de nombreux chrétiens aujourd’hui ne comprennent toujours pas cette doctrine fondamentale. Dans ce petit livre, R. C. Sproul explique clairement la Trinité. Même si la Trinité est mystérieuse, elle ne constitue pas une contradiction, et elle est essentielle pour comprendre la nature de Dieu.

The fantasy worlds of some of our favorite books are not as far away from real life as we might think. The spiritual world of the Bible is dense. In the midst of existence is the Trinity, angels, demons, Satan, monsters, giants, supernatural gifts, the afterlife, bodily resurrection, and much more. As we gaze deeper into these biblical glimpses of the hidden world, we begin to reshape both our understanding of our everyday life and the way in which we can and should live out our faith as Christians.

The concept of "Christ in you" is a profound theological cornerstone within Christian doctrine, embodying the intimate and transformative relationship between the believer and Jesus Christ. This notion transcends mere intellectual assent to faith and delves deeply into the mystical union and indwelling presence of Christ within the hearts and lives of believers. The phrase "Christ in you" is derived from Colossians 1:27, where the Apostle Paul writes, "To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory." ...

There is great confusion and controversy over the doctrine of the Holy Spirit. Who is he, and what does he do? Is he some type of force? Is he an energy or a thing? Likewise, topics such as spiritual gifts, the baptism in the Spirit, and being filled with the Spirit tend to incite differing views and discord, even amongst the sincerest and most devoted Christians. Because of all this, some have hesitated to study or teach on the Holy Spirit. This is unfortunate, since the Holy Spirit makes possible both the redemption (John 6:8-9, Rom 8:11) and sanctification (1 Pet 1:2) of believers. In ...

This book, Holy Spirit the Forgotten God, gives a classical revelation of the Holy Spirit who though is somewhat forgotten in the world, today, but He is the God who is in charge of this era, known as "the Era of the Holy Spirit". Scripture affirms the fact that Jesus had promised not to leave us as orphans (when the time of his departure had come), that he would ask the father and He would give us another helper who would take his place.

This book shows how to provide what the Father seeks. It includes the form of private prayer which Jesus taught, teaches how to come into the presence of the Lord to worship and learn, lights the path to becoming a spiritual person, living a joyful life of agape love. It nourishes the seed of faith in us sufficient to move mountains. What The Father Seeks is two separately written books in a single binding, "Touching the Light" and "Lectio Divina, A Pearl of Great Value". They are also separately published, for those who are only interested in one of the subjects.

People sometimes have difficulty understanding the Trinity. But if that is the case with someone reading this Introduction, then he or she should not feel too bad. It took the scholars and theologians of the early Church about five hundred years after the Incarnation of Jesus to even begin to figure it out. The whole idea of one God is not too difficult to understand. But when the same scholars and theologians start talking about one God in three persons, then the whole matter becomes much more complicated. Is it biblically correct to say or think of three different persons of deity, daily ...

The theological train I am most attached with has often interpreted blasphemy of the Holy Spirit as accrediting the works of Jesus to the devil. This is a solid interpretation, taken directly from context, but it fails to flow with the basic principles found in the rest of the Bible.

The ministry of the Holy Spirit is the prominent feature of the New Testament church. In the Old Testament God promised that His Spirit would be outpoured upon all flesh. On the day of Pentecost, God’s promise was fulfilled. In the pages of this book, the dynamics of the promise of the Father; that is, the baptism of the Holy Spirit and the gift of tongues will be explored.

In this short audiobook, Pastor Jamin Bradley draws from deep Bible study and over 15 years of worship leading experience to address some of the topics that we often ignore. Here, you'll find practical tips for leading worship alongside the Holy Spirit, discover how the Bible sees our music and church services engaging with the spiritual realm, and learn how to create the space for your congregants to experience the intimacy of God.

The term "angels of light" appears in the Bible to describe entities that appear righteous, pure, or divine but are deceptive and aligned with evil purposes. This phrase comes directly from 2 Corinthians 11:14, where Paul writes, “And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.” This warning sets the stage for a broader biblical exploration of the concept, shedding light on the deceptive nature of evil forces, their strategies, and how they attempt to lead people away from the truth of God. At its core, the idea of angels of light highlights the spiritual reality ...

The Holy Spirit is not merely an impersonal force or an abstract concept but the third person of the Trinity, fully and truly God. Scripture consistently reveals the Holy Spirit’s divine attributes, His role in creation, salvation, and sanctification, and His identification as God. Understanding the Holy Spirit as God is foundational to the Christian faith, and the biblical evidence is clear: the Holy Spirit is to be worshipped, honored, and revered as the true and living God. One

In the Old Testament God prepared a people for the coming of Messiah. There were prophets amongst them. In the New Testament He seeds the people of Messiah into the Kingdom He won on the Cross. He is building a prophetic community in which prophets and prophetic leaders are charged with coaching and releasing members of the Body in the many parts and one spirit of 1 Corinthians 12 into their shared destiny of His composite revelation. In these days the Kingdom is very near; its coming is characterized by a season of unusual miracles.

At the heart of the Christian understanding of grace is the life and work of Jesus Christ. The incarnation, crucifixion, and resurrection of Jesus are the ultimate manifestations of God's grace. Jesus’ sacrificial death on the cross paid the penalty for sin, making it possible for humanity to be reconciled with God. This act of grace is described as a substitutionary atonement, where Jesus took upon Himself the punishment that was due to sinners, thereby satisfying the demands of divine justice and demonstrating the depths of God's love. The resurrection of Jesus is also a testament to ...

In this book, we will explore the mystery of God; that is, the doctrine of the Trinity or Triune God. For years, the debate continues as to whether Jesus Christ and the Father are the same or if they are separate. Answers to this controversy are within the word of God which clearly reveals the truth. In this publication, we will plainly discuss the Godhead; that is, the divine nature of God. Through the presentation of biblical truth, we will bring clarity to this controversial subject.
