Christians are little gods. (Praise the Lord (TBN), redorded 7/7/86)

God draws no distinction between Himself and us.

God opens up the union of the very godhead (Trinity), and brings us into it. (Praise-a-thon (TBN), November 1990)

These individuals would defend to the death their belief in the inerrancy and infallibility of the Word, but have softened, as we will see, in the area of sufficiency. When we speak of the sufficiency of the Bible, we mean that it alone is adequate to train us in godliness. Only the Word reveals God’s truth for living. On the negative side, this naturally implies Read the rest...

“Pray to yourself, because I’m in your self and you’re in Myself. We are one Spirit, saith the Lord.”(2)

“I say this with all respect so that it don’t upset you too bad, but I say it anyway. When I read in the Bible where he [Jesus] says, ‘I Am,’ I just smile and say, ‘Yes, I Am, too!’”(3)

First what is revelation? Revelation is according to the Bible God communicating Himself and His plan for man. There are to types of revelation: Special and General. General revelation applies to the knowledge of God that comes from looking at nature and the universe. We can see God’s handiwork in the universe and thus know that it was created by design. “The heavens declare the glory of God,” (Psa. 19:1) Rom 1:20, says that all (men) can see it and Read the rest...

Tonight we want to go back to our study of the contemporary Charismatic movement. This movement has many fascinations, many unique things. While you are kind of getting your mind geared: Phil Johnson was just telling me (Phil is executive director of Grace to You) and he said the other day a lady called the 800 line and she had good news for us. She said that she was given permission by Read the rest...

The subject tonight in our study of the Charismatic Chaos is the Health, Wealth, and Prosperity gospel. We can title this message with a question, “Does God Promise Health and Wealth?”

When I was in the Soviet Union a couple of weeks ago they said to me, “We want you to preach on the ‘Health and Wealth’ gospel.” I was talking to hundreds of pastors, and Pastor Read the rest...

Huh? Well, you don’t think that God made man in His image, and then made earth in some other image? There is not anything under this whole sun that’s new. Are you hearing what I’m saying?

If we look at what actually happens when people receive the blessing the immediate observable effects, we see the following:

The bible tells us that if a man prophecies and it does not come to pass, that man is not speaking of God. What bothers me today is that when people like Mr. Hinn go around and prophesies false in the name of the Lord, but when you get in a conversation with another Christian and call people like Mr. Hinn a false prophet they get offended. Why? Well one of the Read the rest...

    What was the purpose, qualifications and peculiarities which made someone an apostle?

    Here is my take on this topic. It is based on scripture not on my opinion.

    1. The apostles laid the foundation of the church.

    Ephesians 2:20 And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
