As you grow in God you have to grow in love as well.

2 Timothy 1:5-6 NKJV

[5] when I call to remembrance the genuine faith that is in you, which dwelt first in your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am persuaded is in you also. [6] Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.

Paul is telling Timothy to stir up the gifts. Which means there is something we can do to make it active and effective.

There is an age where every believer would have the spirit and every believer would prophesy as Moses wished and Joel prophecied. This is that generation. The gifts of the spirit are available to all.

Charisma is a Greek word that means divine gifting or graces. And throughout this month we are going to be discussing the subject of spiritual gifts in-depth and knowing all that God has put inside of us by his spirit.

Earnest means going overboard to assure the other person and eradicating any doubt on your willingness to keep up your end.

God did that by giving you the spirit to also ensure there is no doubt in your heart about your salvation.

By the spirit, Jesus would purge his floor leaving the good ones. This is the Job of the governor in a new land.

When a country colonizes another country, they establish governors. Whose Job is to enact the culture of the home culture in the new place.

The Holy Ghost changes your desires and makes your desires similar to the hometown separating you. That is sanctification.

Making you identify as a citizen of heaven. That way the chaff is separated from the wheat.

He would purge the floor. He would govern from within you. Blowing off all inconsistencies and marking you for God.

From understanding the Gospel and all I have taught you about who Christ is, there are results that should be birthed in you.

There are fruits that have to be birthed in you.

There are the fruits that should be evident. We should be able to tell that you are a believer in how you live your life.

Salvation is a miracle of a changed heart, not just a miracle of a changed heart but also a miracle of changed desires.

A man in Christ has his desires changed completely.

The Results of the Good News!

Salvation is a miracle of transformation. The Old is gone and the new is here. The spirit of God makes you a new man. Your old life is dead and you now live the life of Christ.

We have spoken about the problem and we have seen the solution in the Messiah or Christos and how Jesus is the Christ. We have seen his passion and suffering and we have seen his glorification which can also mean his ascension.

In today’s teaching, I want to put all you have learnt together and give you a full understanding of the Gospel and how a man is saved. You know the problem, you know the solution but how do you get to be a part of this. How does it apply to you?
