What is the nature of the kingdom of God? And what is the "power" that the kingdom exerts now in the church?

Satan is not opposed to most ordinary things you do, as long as you do them like the rest of the world.

Peaceful, non-violent, ready-to-suffer protest is one way that the truth and beauty of God's kingdom shines in this world.

Since Jesus has come, God exerts his right to rule in new and powerful ways.

The kingdom of God is present and future. There has been fulfillment, but there has not been consummation.

The kingdom has come and it has overcome the aimlessness and futility of our lives and given us an awesome reason to live.

Did the apostles have spiritual gifts that are now obsolete?

"Gifts of healings" and "workings of miracles" are for the church and the mission of Christ in the world today.

James 5 is a rebuke to pastors that never have the faith to heal and churches that don't pray in the spirit of Elijah.

The spiritual gift of prophecy has not passed away, but is meant for the good of the church until Jesus comes.

Prophecy is prompted and sustained by the Spirit and yet does not carry intrinsic, divine authority.

God doesn't tell us to forsake thinking and just listen for messages. He tells us to be changed in the way we think.

Deep down we know so much truth that we fear and therefore deny.

Jesus died to meet your needs. He rose to meet your needs. He reigns to meet your needs—and make you happy in him forever.

God causes us to persevere in the fight of faith. Therefore he gets the glory.

Through the sky God ministers humility and hope and healing and happiness.

How do you deal with sin in your life if you love God?

This age is too evil for us to treat fellowship as a kind of comfortable togetherness that has no transforming, empowering, explosive effect.

The book of Acts is not just the acts of the apostles; it is the acts of the risen, living, enthroned Jesus.

In order to be effective instruments of Jesus' life in the world, you need to be baptized in the Holy Spirit.

The extraordinary experience of being "clothed with power" is available to us for the fulfillment of the Great Commission.

The purpose of the Holy Spirit is invincible and he has an unwavering zeal for the glory of the God-man, Jesus.

When the Spirit comes in power, he comes suddenly—on his own terms and in his own time—and he comes for harvesting.

May God unite us in one vision of what he is doing so that we might not only endure but delight in the design of these days.

We live between the beginning of the kingdom of God and the consummation of the kingdom. What is that like?

Do you join God in his affirmation of Jesus, or do you stand against God in the life of Jesus?

Jesus, the Son of God, is alive today, and stands ready to serve you as your advocate with God the Father.

Even if you are a murderer of the Son of God, God himself is ready to forgive you! And not only to forgive you but to give you his Spirit!

A holy, happy fear of God makes our material possessions insignificant to us, except as means to serve others.

The Father is the ultimate source of all healing. Through Jesus the Father does his healing will.

God will one day establish the kingdom of Christ on the earth.

God is moving toward you today with blessing.

May the Lord forbid that we would lose heart and fail in the very thing needful: mighty prevailing prayer.
