Book Synopsis The Spirit-Filled Church by : Terry Virgo
Download or read book The Spirit-Filled Church written by Terry Virgo and published by Monarch Books. This book was released on 2011 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the history of God's people, the constant element has been the manifest presence of the Almighty. Baptism in the Holy Spirit galvanized the young church, equipping and empowering the believers for action, particularly for proclamation. This transformative experience boosted courage, fostered fluency, and granted insights to ordinary men and women--and still does today. The Spirit gives particular gifts. Terry clarifies the distinction between pastors, apostles, and prophets. Every fellowship needs a pastor, someone who can keep the flock close to the Shepherd Himself. Beyond that there is the role of the apostle, whose calling is to act as the master builder. But we are all called to be a prophetic people, able to speak God's word into the current situation, bringing direction, comfort, solutions, and action. This warm and loving description of the work of the Spirit is a delightful articulation of the passion that has driven Terry's life and ministry.
Book Synopsis The Beginning of a Spirit-filled Church by : Herman Hendrik van Alten
Download or read book The Beginning of a Spirit-filled Church written by Herman Hendrik van Alten and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does John Calvin view the church? And how does the pivotal event of Pentecost influence his view on the church? In his commentary on the Acts of the Apostles Calvin shows how Pentecost and the preaching of the Gospel gives rise to the church. For Calvin the new and peculiar aspect of Pentecost is articulated by the phrases »I will pour out« and »on all flesh« (Acts 2:17). The first phrase ("I will pour out") leads to a discussion of the Holy Spirit who leads the church and the believers by the Word and his secret guidance. All gifts flow from the Holy Spirit. Therefore, the study focuses on Calvin's view on the gifts of the Holy Spirit and on their use in church. The author argues that the gifts of the Spirit are the basis of Calvin's interpretation of Christian church. The second phrase ("on all flesh") leads to a discussion of the inclusion of the Gentiles in the church. The author treats different ecclesiologic topics of importance: He analyses the most important aspects of church that Calvin identifies in the book of Acts. His reflections are aiming at a convincing theological appreciation of the sacraments, in particular of the sacrament of baptism. By addressing Calvin's thoughts as elements of his historical context and including contemporary impulses to these issues, the author is able to present conclusive arguments for his main claim: Calvin's commentary on Acts enriches and qualifies Calvin's own systematic ecclesiology as found in his main doctrinal work, the Institutes.

Packer guides us through the riches and depth of the Spirit s work, assesses versions of holiness and the charismatic life, and shows how Christ must always be at the centre of true Spirit-led ministry.

Here is a book for every serious believer to read and re-read.
Book Synopsis The Doctrine of the Spirit-filled Church by : Francis Vlok
Download or read book The Doctrine of the Spirit-filled Church written by Francis Vlok and published by Elm Hill. This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lord Jesus Christ declared . . . I will build My church: and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. (Matthew 16:18). Throughout the past two thousand years, the church has proclaimed a variety of methods for people to follow in Jesus’ steps. Yet, few have followed His instructions and built the church according to Christ’s teachings which were entrusted to the ministers in His church. The first church was rooted and grounded in the Apostles’ Doctrine (Acts 2:42) and as such the church was built on the sure foundation. Sadly, it has not always contended for the faith but designed and adopted methods that are not in accordance with Christ’s teachings. Now is the appropriate time for the church to return to the biblical structure and conform to tenets found in the Bible. This book contains all the tenets of the Apostles’ Doctrine in one volume. It expounds the deep truths within the Holy Writ and leads ministers to once again conform to the perfect will of God (Romans 12:1-2).

Book Synopsis The 10 Characteristics of a Spirit-Filled Church by : Charles MORRIS
Download or read book The 10 Characteristics of a Spirit-Filled Church written by Charles MORRIS and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-22 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 10 Characteristics of a Spirit-Filled Church, Book 1 of The Spirit-Filled Life Bible Study, answers many questions concerning the work and ministry of the Holy Spirit both in our personal lives and in the church. This book helps us answer, What does it mean to be Spirit-filled? What is a Spirit-filled church, and how do I find a Spirit-filled church near me? What is a Spirit-filled person or Christian, and what does living a Spirit-filled life look like? What are Spirit-filled preachers? What are Spirit-filled prayers? What are Spirit-filled Bible studies? What is a Spirit-filled church fellowship? Charles reveals to us in his book the characteristics of the first century church that should be the norm in our churches today. We need to practice these Spirit-Filled traits with our children, our teens, our young adults, and our adults if we want true Biblical revival in our church. Revival starts here in these ten characteristics taken from Acts 2 with the beginning of the first church. This writing is genuinely a great Revival Bible study book that you will find inspirational. This book will ask if your church is an apostolic church, a word church, a fellowshipping church, a giving church, a communing church, a praying church, a supernatural church, a joyful church, an evangelistic church, a praising church, and a worshipping church. If not, there is a good chance your church is more religious than Spirit-filled. A church led by and filled with the Holy Spirit is a church that finds a fountain of praise and victory in praise coming forth to bless God and others. "The 10 Characteristics of a Spirit-Filled Church" is a great Christian Pastoral resource and counseling tool to assist in Christian personal growth. This book will help churches and church leadership in evangelism and the ministry of discipleship and spiritual growth.

Book Synopsis The Misunderstanding of the Church by : Emil Brunner
Download or read book The Misunderstanding of the Church written by Emil Brunner and published by James Clarke & Co.. This book was released on 2002 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brunner sees St Paul's Epistle to the Romans as 'the chapter of destiny of the Christian Church'. Here, in Luther's words, is the 'purest gospel' upon which the very existence of the Christian faith depends and from which it draws its life. Concentrated, decisive and instructive, nothing within the New Testament is more closely argued both theological and personal. Out of his years of scholarly wisdom Brunner meditates on the great Question: What is wrong with the Churches? Brunner finds an answer in thecontrast between the virile Spirit-filled fellowship of the New Testament and the institutions which are now called 'churches'. He writes in his preface: 'The title of the book, The Misunderstanding of the Church, is equivocal. Is it a question of a misunderstanding of which the Church is guilty, or of a misunderstanding of which it is the victim? Or is it that the Church itself, as such, is perhaps the product of a misunderstanding? The author is not responsible for this ambiguity; it is intrinsic in the theme itself.

Book Synopsis How to be Filled with the Holy Spirit by : A. W. Tozer
Download or read book How to be Filled with the Holy Spirit written by A. W. Tozer and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-13 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The following pages represent the gist of a series of sermons given on successive Sunday evenings to the congregation of the church of which I am pastor. The fact that these were originally spoken messages accounts for their racy style and for the personal references which occur in them occasionally. Had I been writing the messages I should have exercised greater care in the composition. The subject is, however, so vitally important that I feel sure the reader will pardon the offhand style of the language. The truth is always good even when the vehicle in which it rides is homely and plain."
