Join us as Pastor Samuel delivers the message entitled, "Put on the Whole Armor of God."

Notes

LORD Jesus demonstrated how powerful His words are whenever He confronted demons. Holy Spirit had Paul to write and tell us to put on the Whole Armor of God. LORD Jesus never took His Armor off. He used the Sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God to conquer His enemies. There is Power in the Name of JESUS.

Notes

Paul explains that the wisdom of God surpasses the wisdom of men which is coming to nothing. Paul uses the Corinthians own love of wisdom to point them to the One true God.

Notes

One of the greatest weapons Father has given His children in the battle against spiritual darkness is true worship and praise of Him and LORD Jesus, His Son. God said, “Draw closer to God and resist the devil and he will flee from you.”

Join us as Pastor Sammy delivers the message entitled, "I Corinthians 2 Part One: Paul’s Reliance Upon the Spirit."

Notes

The people of Corinth were embedded into a culture where everything goes. This church was the first of Paul’s planting and nurturing. If it could go wrong, it went wrong in the Corinthian church. Paul was in Ephesus when he received a letter alerting him of the problems. In the opening chapter, Paul addressed the different problems that plagued the church. In chapter two, Paul squelched human philosophy and reasoning that some of the leaders used in their deliverance of the gospel. Here is what we can expect in chapter two:

Part One of the chapter: Paul’s deliverance of the gospel

Verses 1-5 Paul used simple language in the deliverance of the gospel while simultaneously

refuted human intellect in the proclamation of the gospel.

V.1 Paul relied upon the Spirit of God to help him to deliver the gospel.

V.2 Paul provided his motivation behind preaching the gospel (Jesus Christ and Him (crucified) 

Vs.3-4 Trembling and fear; excellence of speech and fancy oration do not add power to the gospel; Holy Spirit is the only One who can add power to the gospel

V.5 Faith in Jesus is not to be dispensed to man’s ability to deliver the gospel with human 

intellect and reasoning, but in the power of God

Part Two of the Chapter: Paul did not come with Jewish symbolism and Greek philosophy

V.6 Corinthians who understood the crucifixion of Christ received salvation, knowledge, 

wisdom, understanding, and deep revelation by the Spirit of God (Col 1:26)

V.7 Deep revelation does not come from human wisdom and is hidden from the world 

V.8 Chief men of the world were completely ignorant of the divine revelation of God (Luke 23:24)

V.9 God previously did not disclose His final reward of those who love Him (Isaiah 64:4)

V.10 The Spirit of God is the only One on earth who knows what God has in store for believers

V.11 Holy Spirit is everywhere at the same time disclosing the heart of God to men who love Him and His Christ

V.12 Human spirits cannot know the things of God, thus, impeaching any human efforts that claim insight into the Divine. Holy Spirit is the sole keeper of the things of God

V.13 Holy Spirit endows wisdom upon men to preach the gospel with power.  

V.14 Natural men only know the things of natural men. It is impossible for them to know the wisdom of God under their own fallen human nature. 

V.15 Only Spirit-filled people receive revelation knowledge from God by Holy Spirit. With this spiritual knowledge, Spirit-filled people are able to do self-spiritual assessments. 

V.16 Holy Spirit makes known the mind of God and LORD Jesus to the mind of every believer. 

Only believers in the LORD Jesus Christ have been given this blessing from Holy Spirit. We have the mind of Christ by His Word and by His Spirit.

Notes

God went to Cain as a loving and caring Father and warned him about a supernatural presence called sin, and how sin would be waiting at the doorway for him.

Join us as Pastor Sammy delivers the message entitled, "How Study the Bible."

Notes

God told Timothy through the teaching of Apostle Paul to study the Holy Scriptures in order to show himself approved by God. Most Christians today do not know how to study the Scriptures. Tonight’s Bible will focus on how to study God’s Word.

Join us as Pastor Sammy continues the message entitled, "Spiritual Warfare Continues in Paradise."

Notes

We see in Genesis 3 where the enemy of God and of the WORD makes his first assault on the human race. Our father Adam and our mother Eve did not do so well in that battle and it cost us huge. One warrior, Eve, engaged in the battle, while Adam, the other warrior stood by and did nothing. God gave the life-saving WORD to Adam and Adam did give it to Eve. The enemy of God and the WORD showed up and he twisted everything that the WORD is. Then he instilled in Adam and Eve his spirit of fear. God would later by His Holy Spirit have His servant Paul to write:

God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. I Tim 1:7

Jesus, the Son of God, would demonstrate God’s power over the prince of darkness and his army, the love of the Father for humanity, and the soundness of mind of the Holy Spirit.

God Himself entered the battle that the serpent or satan started in Paradise. God knew that this enemy would wage a war against His children for a very long time. But, God does not leave His children helpless and without hope against such an enemy. Let’s see what the Father’s promise is to the human race against the prince of darkness.

Join us as Pastor Sammy continues the series in Romans entitled, "Romans 15: Paul by Holy Spirit talks about Unity through Mutual Respect."

Notes

Paul urges the stronger Christians to stand stronger in the LORD Jesus Christ by helping others rather than to just bring pleasure to themselves. There were stronger Christians in both groups of believers in the Roman church. Paul reminded the Jewish Christians of their historic command from God to love their neighbors and to do good for them. He then gives them Christ’s example of Him coming and receiving the penalty for their sins as well as for the sins of the Gentiles. To sum up what he wanted them to know about living together as the body of Christ in Rome, they were to worship God together and to praise His Holy Name together. The rest of this chapter is about Paul’s desire to come and visit the Roman church after he had visited Jerusalem and on his way to Spain.

Notes

Holy Spirit had Paul to address cultural differences between Jewish Christians and non-Jewish Christians in Rome. Jewish Christians who desired to observe Jewish dietary laws and the Sabbath clashed with non-Jewish Christians. Paul intervenes with a plea of acceptance on both groups of Christians. He categorized the Jewish Christians as “weak in the faith” because of their intolerance of Gentile Christians who ate meat offered to idols. Gentile Christians on the other hand were categorized as “strong in the faith” because they ate meat offered to idols and drink wine. However, they did so with a conceited spirit towards the Jewish Christians. Such observes and the lack thereof has no bearing on salvation given by LORD Jesus.
