The Power behind what we do is…

Friday, July 10th, 2009

It’s really just Him!  God has given us His Holy Spirit because we need Him.  The state of the world, the challenges to reach lost people, transform our neighborhoods and society around us is much too much for us.  The filling of the Holy Spirit, the gifts of the Holy Spirit, the power of God to change lives and hearts by the Holy Spirit is what is needed, now as much as in the early New Testament days.  The Spirit, the Word and unified believers can and will bring needed change to human lives and society.  Open your heart to the Holy Spirit!  His Blessings, PB

Happy 4th of July! 

I’m preaching a message entitled “True Freedom” tomorrow.  The Lord showed me again what’s obvious: true freedom doesn’t always mean that you’re free on the outside, but you’re definitely free if you’re free on the inside.  The Lord Jesus Christ is freedom and He sets people free as a “byproduct” of knowing Him, as His nature is freedom.  He is a slave to no one and just by being near Him you become free, a slave to no one or nothing!  His Blessings, PB
