Beginning Your New Faith Adventure with the Spirit

 As you get ready to start your new faith adventure it is imperative that you have a good solid understanding of what happened to you when you got saved, what the Spirit did then and is doing now, and what He will be doing in the days ahead.  This all begins when you get saved and enter into a living relationship with the Lord.   Let's begin with this teaching about the indwelling of the Spirit...

Basic Premise:  Jesus Christ has completely met every obligation, need, and requirement to totally secure us as a child of God.

Basic Truth:  The Son of God takes up residence in our lives at the moment of salvation.

Text:  I John 5:13  “These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, in order that you may know that you have eternal life.

Revelation 3:20  “Behold, I stand at the door and knock, if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with Me.”

Colossians 1:27  “…Christ in you, the hope of glory.”

Romans 8:11  “But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who indwells you.”

**  INDWELLING is a once and for all experience that needs never to be repeated.

**  We can be sure of the indwelling.  (I John 5:13)

**  Once that question is settled, then you can grow on into maturity.

**  INDWELLING means you have all that God is, has been, and ever will be dwelling inside you.

**  Settle the question and then launch out into your adventure of faith.

    I love this. It is a foundation that sets the tone for our spiritual growth. If you are a Christian of one hour, or 50 years, these promises of God remain truthful and eternal.

A new beginning for a new concept of ministry.

 After retiring from active pastoral ministry in 2010, I have finally decided to get back into a new form of Christian and Biblical ministry--and that is through a totally Christian blog based on Biblical truth.  It will be an opportunity to share Biblical truths and insights and also to minister the Gospel in a new and unique way.   We will be blogging about the entire spectrum of Christian topics, thoughts, and concepts.   This is the beginning of our new step of faith.   I hope you enjoy it, study with us, and contribute when you are comfortable doing so.   We are open to your thoughts and ideas about how to embark on our new venture.   The vast majority of our time and efforts will be studying, sharing, and learning about how to "walk in the Spirit" and to discover all of the marvelous things the Spirit of the Lord can do in and through a consecrated life. In our Lord, Randy

Moving Along in our Faith Adventure: Understanding and Appropriating Justification and Propitiation

  Understanding and appropriating justification and propitiation are two critical foundations for your faith experience.  Let's lay the groundwork with our understanding of justification and then move on to propitiation.   Two big words but easy to understand and experience when you search out the Scriptures.  Integrate these two words into your spiritual vocabulary so you can depend on them and use them in your walk of faith.   JUSTIFICATION Romans 3:24   “being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus. Romans 5:1   “Therefore having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” Romans 5:9   “having now been justified by His blood…” Romans 8:30 “whom He called, these He also justified…” Galatians 2:16   “nevertheless knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the Law but through faith in Christ Jesus, even we have believe in Christ Jesus, tha...
