That being justified by His #Grace, we should be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.--Titus 3:5-7
To teach that the filling with the #HolySpirit is given to the #Christian to provide "power for service" is to teach truth, but not the whole #Truth. ..
Power for service is but one effect of the experience, and I do not hesitate to say that it is the least of several effects. It is least for the very reason that it touches service, presumably service to mankind; and contrary to the popular belief, ..

#FridayFeeling #Faith or Experience?
…the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. —Galatians 2:20
We should battle through our moods, feelings, and emotions into absolute devotion to the #Lord #Jesus. ..
We must break out of our own little world of experience into abandoned devotion to Him. Think who the New Testament says #Jesus #Christ is, and then think of the despicable meagerness of the miserable #faith we exhibit ..
by saying, “I haven’t had this experience or that experience”! Think what #faith in #Jesus #Christ claims and provides— He can present us faultless before the throne of God, inexpressibly pure, absolutely righteous, and profoundly justified. ..

Self Deception and How to Avoid It

OF ALL FORMS OF DECEPTION, self-deception is the most deadly, and of all deceived persons the self-deceived are the least likely to discover the fraud.

The reason for this is simple. ..
When a man is deceived by another he is deceived against his will. He is contending against an adversary and is temporarily the victim of the other's guile. Since he expects his foe to take advantage of him he is watchful and quick to suspect trickery. ..
Under such circumstances it is possible to be deceived sometimes and for a short while, but because the victim is resisting he may break out of the trap and escape before too long.

With the self-deceived it is quite different. He is his own enemy ..

#wednesdaythought Hopelessly Lost

Philosophically man has lost his way. Could he think himself out of his age-old predicament he would long ago have done it, for the world has had more than enough serious-minded men of superior intellectual endowments to ..

That (#Jesus) #Christ actually inhabits the nature of the regenerate believer is assumed, implied and overtly stated in the Holy Scriptures(#Bible). All the Persons of the Godhead ..
are said to enter the nature of the one that engages New Testament #Truth in #faith and obedience. "If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him" (John 14:23). ..

1/ This was a dream & vision that God gave me last year on March 24th, 2020. Then, I only shared it w/ 2 other ppl, that I recall.

I saw a man in white robe with a sword in his hand fighting against an enemy. Two young women were standing beside him, one on each side. ...
2/ Fire and smoke shot toward them, and a head appeared from the midst of the smoke. The head was that of a dragon. The head of the dragon had two horns on his head like an antelope. The dragon told the man that he cannot defeat him or protect the two women. The man replied ...
3/ to the dragon, telling him that he is really weak and that he only gets his power by speaking lies. The dragon became enraged and replied, "I will show you my power and strength." The two women told the man that they will help him. The man thanked the women, and he gave ...

I’ve always been inspired by the way @BethMooreLPM brings God’s Word to life here on Twitter by sharing what she’s been reading, so here goes my first Twitter thread where I will try to explain why I was completely undone by my time in Scripture a few days ago.
I have been reading through the 13 letters of Paul, and since I read them slightly out of order, I ended in Philemon. I’ll admit that I had NO IDEA who Philemon was. This is not a book of the Bible I have spent much time in; however, it is now one of my favorites.
If you are like me and don’t know much about Philemon, here is a quick overview: Philemon (pronounced Fuh-Lee-Muhn) was a slave owner who lived in Colossae and was friends with Paul. One of his slaves, Onesimus, stole from him and ran away, which was punishable by death.

THE FEAST OF THE EXALTATION OF THE HOLY CROSS: #SEP14

~thread~
1. Our Divine Redeemer Jesus Christ is the spiritual King of our souls; and it is by the love and spirit of his cross that he must reign in them. By this happy instrument he has rescued
us
#ExaltationoftheHolyCross Image
2. from the power of sin, and conquered death and hell.

But do not our sloth and malice still hold out against him? Have the boundless excess of his love, and the omnipotent power of his grace, yet triumphed over our hearts? Is his holy cross planted there? does it daily grow
3. and spread itself in our affections?

The spirit of the cross, or of Christ crucified, is the spirit of that perfect humility, meekness, charity, patience, and all other virtues, which he preaches to us by his cross. So long as self-love, pride, sensuality, or impatience

@TheReal_JesusC I used to have @almightygod among my 25K followers before those nasty sods working for @jack decided to suspend my account and take away all my followers. I thought since he claimed to be the real Mccoy he would defend me. So if @Twitter decides to penalise me..
unjustly, just for telling the #truths about #Zionists trying to enslave #Gentiles & #Jews alike and you notice my followers disappear, can you please smite @jack for me if he does not get his act together. Now I have had the father, you the son, just the #HolySpirit needs ....
to start following me, He is using a funny name here @TheTweetOfGod. Can you give him a nudge to get on board as together we could cut those #Zionists who are inflicting so much hardship on the people of the world & destroying Earth right down to size. Apologies for long tweet ImageImageImageImage

The Holy Spirit 7/7

He is the third person of the trinity. He is not a wind or fire or dove.

He gives spiritual gifts for the profit of the church and produces fruits in our lives

#HolySpirit
A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other. To one person the Spirit gives the ability to give wise advice; to another the same Spirit gives a message of special knowledge. The same Spirit gives great faith to another, and to someone else the one Spirit
gives the gift of healing. He gives one person the power to perform miracles, and another the ability to prophesy. He gives someone else the ability to discern whether a message is from the Spirit of God or from another spirit. Still another person is given

The Holy Spirit 6/7

He is the third person of the trinity. He is not a wind or fire or dove.

We need to be constantly filled with the Holy Spirit

Praying makes us filled with the Holy Spirit and we are thus in tune with him.

#HolySpirit
But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, gazed steadily into heaven and saw the glory of God, and he saw Jesus standing in the place of honor at God's right hand.
After this prayer, the meeting place shook, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit. Then they preached the word of God with boldness.

The Holy Spirit 5/7

He is the third person of the trinity. He is not a wind or fire or dove.

Speaking in tongues is the evidence of receiving the Holy Spirit

When we speak in tongues, we build up ourselves (innerman) like an edifice and communicate mysteries with God
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.
Then when Paul laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in other tongues and prophesied.

The Holy Spirit 4/7

He is the third person of the trinity. He is not a wind or fire or dove.

He empowers and helps us

Our lives as Christians can only be lived with the help of the Holy Spirit.

#HolySpirit
But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you;...

And my speech and my preaching [was] not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power.

#HolySpirit
Next Paul and Silas traveled through the area of Phrygia and Galatia, because the Holy Spirit had prevented them from preaching the word in the province of Asia at that time.... but again the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them to go there.

The Holy Spirit 3/7

He is the third person of the trinity. He is not a wind or fire or dove.

He is our counselor, guide and revealer of truths/secrets

We have access to the mind and plans of God because of the Holy Spirit.

#HolySpirit
But we know these things because God has revealed them to us by his Spirit, and his Spirit searches out everything and shows us even God's deep secrets. No one can know what anyone else is really thinking except that person alone,
and no one can know God's thoughts except God's own Spirit. And God has actually given us his Spirit (not the world's spirit) so we can know the wonderful things God has freely given us.

The Holy Spirit 2/7

He is the third person of the trinity. He is not a wind or fire or dove.

He is God's gift to all believers

He makes his abode in us.

#HolySpirit
On one occasion, while he was eating with them, he gave them this command: "Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit."
If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!"

The Holy Spirit

He is the third person of the trinity. He is not a wind or fire or dove.

He is the Spirit of God

He came upon those of the old testament but lives in us believers.

#HolySpirit
When he and his servant arrived at Gibeah, a procession of prophets met him; the Spirit of God came powerfully upon him, and he joined in their prophesying.

The Spirit lifted me up and brought me to the exiles in Babylonia in the vision given by the Spirit of God...
For all who are led by the Spirit of God are children of God.

The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you.

God bless the Philippines on Philippine Independence Day! What an amazing history and an even more amazing destiny that is being revealed. We believe the Philippine people will play a key roll in End Time events. My wife and I hope to participate somehow.
Our God wants his people to perform exploits that glorify His Son, Jesus. Just raising a family and making a living demands great courage and virtue- or “Chayil” in the Hebrew. But we are expecting to see events like the parting of the Red Sea and the Battle of Jericho...
Or Gideon’s 300 Warriors. Not just in the Philippines but wherever there are Believers! God is pleased when people believe Him to do great things!#PhilippineIndependenceDay #FederalWay

In his ‘Confessio’ St Patrick writes about the Trinity:

~thread~
1.There is no other God, nor ever was, nor will be, than God the Father
• Unbegotten
• Without beginning
• From whom is all beginning
• Who upholds all things, as we have been taught.
#HolyTrinity #StPatrick Image
2. And His Son Jesus Christ
• Whom we acknowledge to have been always with the Father
• Who before the beginning of the world was spiritually present with the Father
• Begotten in an unspeakable manner before all beginning

#JesusChrist #TrinitySunday
#MostHolyTrinity
#God
3.• By Him are made all things visible and invisible.
• He was made man, and
• Having defeated death, was received into heaven by the Father
• And He has given Him a name which is above all names
• That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow

One of the leading figures of French #islamologie in modern times was Louis Massignon (1883-1962) chair at the Collège de France on #Islam and whose name is forever associated with the study of Sufism and an #empathetic study of #Islam 1/ ImageImageImageImage
In fact his turn to faith before WW1 followed a trip to #Iraq in 1907 and encounter with Muslim hospitality and spirituality reawakened his #Catholicism along with the #intercessionary friendship of Joris-Karl Huysmans (1838-1907) and the hermit Charles de Foucauld (1848-1916) 2/ ImageImage
After his own doubt, De Foucauld became a Trappist monk living in Morocco, Syria and then in the Algerian Sahara with the Tuareg when he was martyred in 1916 and is currently in the process of being canonised by Pope Francis vaticannews.va/en/vatican-cit… 2a/

It is 2020!
At the beginning of each #newyear, we make #new plans, new #resolutions, new #goals , want new #directions, forge new #paths and much more. This is wonderful. It sounds like we all want #CLARITY in our hearts about what to do and how to get it done. @PD_PneumaFaith
As I was thinking about this over the last couple of weeks, the scripture for #PneumaFaith kept coming to my mind. "The unfolding of your word gives light; it gives understanding to the simple." (Psalms 119:130 NIV). @PD_PneumaFaith
The word #UNFOLDING is used in many translations of this verse (#entrance, #teaching, #revelation, #explanation #disclosure #opening #declaration) Whatever translation we read, it implies the #reading or #meditation of the #word brings #light, #illumination ...

If you aren’t sure what #Pentecost means for you or the world, I wrote this book for you.

The Holy Spirit is your life, guide, & heritage, weaving you with all existence, and the perfect seal of Jesus. Returning to the great secret is the work of life, and the Way of Christ. Image
We learn to know the Spirit as a whole Person by becoming whole through his work. Because he is the Sustainer of all, we can meet him in creation, in our holy writings, in our communities, in our own inner being.
Life in the Holy Spirit is like learning to understand a language you already speak.
