Open your Bibles to The Book Of Ephesians. For those of you who watch at home, we use the King James Bible. We make corrections, but it is still the best that we have. Many people call and say, “What book is that?” Well it’s the Bible. That’s the first starting point. But the second thing [...]
You may think “Well what’s the big deal?” He already made Adam and Eve. They were already vessels. This is the point that this represents, this marring represents our freewill, like Isaiah; each person goes their own way. Sin at its root, “I do what works for me. I’m going to go my way, not [...]

“Well my child’s been born in the church” versus “I just came into the church,” two different worlds? No. All born in Adam. You don’t have to turn there; I’m going to read it to you right out Romans 5. You can turn there if you want. I’m not going to stay there. I want [...]

So “His for we are masterpiece, poem” as I’ve translated this ktisthentes “having been created.” And this is what’s so great about Paul’s writing. He doesn’t make it confusing, “Having been created” something that previously wasn’t there. What is it? “In Christ” en Kristo Yesou “in Christ Jesus.” What wasn’t there before. Why? Because if [...]

This shows you by the way, before progressive education, before a lot of things. This actually emanated from Tyndale’s translation, I believe, in 1525. “To program the mind, let me give you something cushiony before I give you the one-two punch. Let me give you something good to digest, ‘You hath He quickened.’” No. He [...]

I will tell you what is my heart’s desire for this church. I am not empowered to go and save the world, but I am empowered and commissioned by God to help you have a fuller life in Christ. I do not teach a doctrine of prosperity. To those who ask, “Are you going to [...]

So, to understand who the “thy people” really are, we must delineate between peoples at an historic “Y” fork in the road of prophetic revelation. When it was time for Jacob, who had been renamed Israel, to pass on the birthright and decide who is going to get what, you begin to see at that [...]

There are those who will take a promise and twist it “As thy day, so shall thy faith be.” No. “As thy day, so shall thy strength be.” I really have come to terms with this. You can wake up in the morning and not feel your best. It shouldn’t affect your Faith. Your Faith [...]
