Ray Bentley

Pastor Ray Bentley says, Jesus wants us to come to him by faith. I want you to know that first we put our faith in Jesus and confess him, and then he gives us the wonderful confirmation of experience. Now, quite honestly, if God wanted to, he could just have sent Jesus burning and dazzling seven times like the sun and everybody go, well, obviously he's the Messiah.

If we're really believers, pastor Ray Bentley says it'll show one of the signs that you're actually born again is that you're growing because you're saved. And you're, like, running from that life of the past that brought you to brokenness and repentance in the first place. So if you're not really wanting to grow, then where is your assurance or confidence that you really know the Lord?

Salvation is a free gift. Christian growth requires some work. Pastor Wright says the effort is worthwhile. It is worth pressing for the mark of the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Amen. It is worth the effort. God rewards those he said that diligently seek him. You seek me with all your heart. You will find me.

Pastor Ray Bentley says, God never lets go of us, but neither does he let us off the hook. I think that our father in Heaven sometimes allows us in situations where we stomp and we pout and we cry and we kick and we scream and we throw ourselves around and he goes, you're not quitting. You're not quitting on life, and you're not quitting on me.

Salvation doesn't come by the good works we do. But pastor Ray Bentley says, once we're followers, we'll do good works. Salvation is a gift that you don't earn it. But once you are saved, then you work that salvation out. Why? Because it is God who is at work in you, and he is the one giving you the will, both the will and the power to do his good pleasure spreading.

Pastor Ray Bentley says, we need to remember we're on the winning side in spiritual warfare. There are times when you get intimidated by overemphasis izing the enemy. Rather than emphasizing the greatness of our God, the greatness of our Savior, the greatness of the power of the Holy Spirit. We don't stand against Ray Bentley, against the devil. You laugh.

Pastor Ray Bentley has important information for all of us last days believers. The enemy is pulling out all the stops. He wants to keep people from looking for, naming or calling upon the name of Jesus. But here's the good news. First, John chapter two says we have an advocate before the father. That word advocate means we have a lawyer.

We are like sheep. Jesus is the shepherd. Pastor Ray Bentley explains why every single one of us was like a string lost sheep. And yet Jesus left the beauty and the perfection and the glories of Paradise and of heaven came into the wilderness. And he found us, and the idea with the shepherd would grab you and pick you up and lift you upon his shoulders, and literally carry you back to the fold.

Thoughts on the fellowship of suffering from pastor Ray Bentley. There is no such thing as private pain. All pain is communal. We are to share it with one another, and we're to bear it with one another and have compassion for one another. Someone has said that suffering is like love. It can only be shared. And if we truly share our suffering with one another, then we can also share our joys spread.

Pastor Ray Bentley has insight on inner and outer beauty. Any one of my sisters who will now spend time and attention and focus upon adorning that inner beauty of the gentle and quiet spirit will be beautiful, regardless of what your frame may seem to appear, it will compliment. It will draw people in. You'll all be beauties. Spread. You see all of these people coming down before the King.
