How has God wired you spiritually? What is your spiritual gift/gifts?
When a person comes to Christ, that person receives a spiritual gift and most receive several spiritual gifts through the Power of the Holy Spirit that now inhabits their soul. For a list of those spiritual gifts you can read I Cor. 12 and Romans 12. However, using your spiritual gifts is very much like physical exercise. You need to practice and serve at all times in your gifts so that the Holy Spirit can build up your soul spiritually so that you may be bold in living and serving in your faith. But if you avoid serving with the spiritual gifts Jesus gave you then you will spiritually atrophy. You won't lose your gifts but you will be ineffective in your faith. Paul encourages Timothy to fan into flame the power of the Holy Spirit to use his spiritual gifts and not to be timid. Because the more you use your gifts the more the Power of God is revealed through YOU !!!
Here is the 5th talk by Pastor Jeff in the series called "The Power of the Gospel" and this talk is labeled "Powering Forward"!! Pastor Jeff a talented speaker and teacher of the Bible in this video sermon/audio only if you choose gives much encouragement, joy and hope to both Christians and unbelievers. To discover and develop their spiritual gifts through the person of Jesus Christ. For those of you who have not heard him speak he is truly one of the most authentic, genuine, straight from the heart, pull no punches, tells it like it is, gifted speaker of the Gospel that I have heard in a long time and have met. He is the 'real deal' and your time will not be wasted listening to him. Blessings to all !!! http://www.harvestdenver.org/sermons/power-forward-5816 |

Proverbs 16:25-
There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death. I pray for you Ash !! I pray for everyone here that the blinders be removed from their eyes and the hard heartedness be melted away by God's Holy Spirit. ![]()

No I am not. Because when I let the flesh rule I am a very sinfully ugly person with my words and proved it a lot here on CP years ago when I first became a member until God got my attention and reminded me that I was His and I was being a horrible witness for Christ. But I get what you are saying and appreciate the support but it is really Jesus who is the perfect good man that lives through you and me that people see not us in an of ourselves. Who can boast on their own apart from Christ ?? No one !!
Keep fighting the good fight brother !!

People ask questions and make statements and I reply with respectful tact never shoving down anyone's throat whatsoever BUT...... in Hebrews 4:11-13 it does say that God's Word is like a double edged sword...
11 Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following the same pattern of disobedience. 12 For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it pierces even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It is able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. 13 Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight; everything is uncovered and exposed before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.… so in essence I can understand why your throat(a la your heart) feels like it does because unless you are a professional sword swallower your getting cut up pretty bad not just physically but more importantly having your heart filleted open exposing the real you that needs changed by Jesus coming into your life. ![]()
