AMERICAN CHRISTIAN #47“What Say the Scriptures” (Part 2)Yep, part 2, where we will investigate the Word of God in the New Testament regarding tyranny.  There is a distinction between the Kingdom of Heaven and the earthly kingdom, that which belongs to Caesar and that which belongs to God.  Join us in the Book of Acts and the Gospel of Matthew.  Have you ever said or thought that you should be obeying God rather than men?  If so, you’re in good company, you are His witnesses!

AMERICAN CHRISTIAN #46“What Say the Scriptures”

Today we will investigate the Word of God to see if we have any supporting context for the doctrine of the Lesser Magistrate.  Remember we are talking about resisting tyranny, does that mean we fight back with swords and/or the modern warfare of the time?  Not really. Is there risk?  Yes.  Join us in Books of Exodus, I Samuel, Jeremiah and Daniel where you’ll learn more about how the people of God have interposed (see Ep 45) in the role of being a lesser magistrate.

AMERICAN CHRISTIAN #45“What is a Lesser Magistrate”

Dr. Nichols asks the question: Is there a direct relationship between reformation and revival? What happens when an Amish dairy farmer goes toe to toe with the FDA and Washington lawyers?  Also, defining the terms interposition and remonstrance, how do these two terms fit into defining the “lesser magistrate”?  We also look at the passage in Luke 4:18 is where Jesus makes His address to the people early on in His ministry.

AMERICAN CHRISTIAN #44“God and Caesar”The Christian's Relationship to the Civil Government

Dr. Nichols asks the question: What does Jesus mean by, “Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s” in Matthew 22:15-22?  We also do a fly over on Romans 12:21-13:7, just what does this scripture teach us about obeying our government officials?  When rulers punish good with evil and reward good to those who do evil, what are we, as Christians, to do?  AND… what do we see the Apostle Paul doing in 2 Cor 11:32-33 in regard those civil authorities that want to arrest Paul?  American Christian let’s awaken and remember that the Word of God is superior to the words of men.

AMERICAN CHRISTIAN #43“Chose and Decide”Charismatic Renewal (Part 1)

In Acts 2:17,

    And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God,

    That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh;

    Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,

    Your young men shall see visions,

    Your old men shall dream dreams.

We will all need to chose and decide what to do with the Holy Spirit.  Also, we’ll be investigating the Charismatic Renewal among Catholics and Lutherans.

AMERICAN CHRISTIAN #42“God Is Ready!”

The Father has sent redemption, Jesus Christ, to redeem His people.  In Ep 42, we are exploring what comes next when we come into agreement that we are “ready” for what is next.  What does it mean to tarry (wait)? Be assured, waiting is a good place to be, out of the wait, comes the power from on High.  We will be discussing the promise of that power as seen in in the last chapter of Luke, Acts 2, 10 and 19.  The solution to the problems in the US is for Christians to break into the worldly realm with the power of the Holy Ghost!  Believe this: The “age to come” is breaking in, that God is ready, and so are you!  Also, how to have a Holy Ghost conversation with other “water baptized” Christians and how can we have a Holy Ghost conversation with other believers about the Holy Ghost?

AMERICAN CHRISTIAN #41“Are You Ready?”

Today, being ready in the Lord looks like what?  What is the parable of the 10 virgins about (Mt 25:1-13)?  It’s about what the Kingdom of Heaven likened to.  Likened to a readiness, a preparedness, when those in the Kingdom are ready, they will enter in with the Bridegroom (Jesus).  Those who are not ready will come up to a closed door; they will ask to be let in, they will be denied entry and told by the Bridegroom, “I do not know you…”.  So, how do we get ready?  Also, we will look at Rivers of Living Water (John 7:37-39).

AMERICAN CHRISTIAN #40“Press Through the Wall”

What a blessing it is to be filled with the Holy Ghost and fire!  This episode, we look at the wall Christians can come up against as they pursue the Holy Ghost.  We know we have a blood covenant with Jesus Christ; there is a tarry that comes to each of us when we are in pursuit of revival.  We know that the world is experiencing very difficult times and we say the solution to the difficulty is to tarry and press through the wall and finish the race we are in.  

Also, hear the testimony of a woman being baptized in the Holy Ghost while sitting in a hot tub in rural Wisconsin over a cell phone.  The driver, being her brother, gave testimony to a church service on Pentecost Sunday (2021) where the church prayed to receive the Holy Ghost and the evidence of speaking in tongues.  Her faith rose up, and her brother prayed for her to receive, as she asked and knew there was more - she was baptized in the Holy Ghost with the Evidence of speaking in tongues!

KOREA – The Jerusalem of the East (Pt 3 of 3)

One of the great lessons out of the Korean revival is to wait upon the Lord and allow Him to move while His people pray.  It is true that many wonderful things came out of this revival, churches, hospitals, and universities.  But know that this happened in the midst of Japanese occupation, it happened under persecution and it happened across denominational lines.  Kim Jung Un (leader of North Korea) is a great grandson of revival, but what happened over the generations?  The prayers of Korean people happened in secret and quiet places, it was not manufactured by men, but by the Holy Spirit’s leading.  We too must be in want of this transformation where God steps down out of heaven, to loosen our modern methods and criticism of the Word of God and let the Word of God criticize us.  Generations later, Pastor David Cho founds the largest Christian church in the world producing over 700,000 members, in Seoul, Korea.  To become a member of Pastor Cho’s church you were required to have led one person to Jesus, been baptize in water and willing to offer your tithes to the church.  American Christian, would you fit this profile?

KOREA – The Jerusalem of the East (Part 2 of 3)

What are the early warning signs that revival can and should come?  Where exactly is God working? What manner does the Holy Spirit come and begin His work in the hearts of men and women?  The confession of sin, the realization of sin’s work in the saved and unsaved, American Christian, the power of sin MUST be broken, the truth is, it has been broken… but do you believe it to be so?  Without revival, America is destined to die.  The outward signs of the believer are miracles, signs and wonders, BUT the inward sign of the believer is LOVE.  Hear the written testimony of those that were present in Korea when God stepped down of heaven in the 1907 revival of Pongyang.
