  FIREPOWER: Willpower vs Firepower | Judah Thomas

  Sep 6, 202631 minS13

  God is not telling you to _________ ___________________. [Galatians 3:3] How foolish can you be? After starting your new lives in the Spirit, why are you now trying to become perfect by your own human effort? Salvation begins with ___________________. We can't trust ___________________ to save us and then trust ___________________ to change us. [Galatians 5:19-23 ESV] Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, [20] idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, [21] envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. [22] But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, [23] gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. We can't produce the Fruit of the Spirit _________________ the Spirit. [John 15:4 ESV] Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. Spiritual fruit isn't the result of trying __________________; It's the result of staying ___________________. Before the Spirit demonstrates His power _______________ you, He wants to develop His character __________ you. [Galatians 2:20] My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. The Holy Spirit is making us like ___________________. [Galatians 5:16] So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won't be doing what your sinful nature craves.

  Your Turn: The Evangelists (March 10, 2019) | Judah Thomas

  Sep 4, 202635 minS5

  Our gifts are to be used in ____________, to ____________ people, and ____________ them to Jesus. [Ephesians 4.11-12] Now these are the gifts Christ gave to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. [12] Their responsibility is to equip God’s people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ. __________ are God's __________ for reaching the world. [Romans 10.13-15] For “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” [14] But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them? [15] And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent? That is why the Scriptures say, “How beautiful are the feet of messengers who bring good news!” Evangelism is simply ____________ people to put their ____________ in Jesus. [Matthew 28.19-20] Go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. [20] Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” We are called to make ______________ not converts. [Matthew 4.18-20] One day as Jesus was walking along the shore of the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers—Simon, also called Peter, and Andrew—throwing a net into the water, for they fished for a living. [19] Jesus called out to them, “Come, follow me, and I will show you how to fish for people!” [20] And they left their nets at once and followed him. We are _________ ____________ to share our faith. Evangelism starts with ____________. [Acts 4.29-31] And now, O Lord, hear their threats, and give us, your servants, great boldness in preaching your word. [30] Stretch out your hand with healing power; may miraculous signs and wonders be done through the name of your holy servant Jesus.” [31] After this prayer, the meeting place shook, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit. Then they preached the word of God with boldness. Religion teaches how to ____________ with sin, but Jesus ________________ it.

  FIREPOWER: The Ghost in You | Judah Thomas

  Aug 30, 202633 minS13

  The Holy Spirit is a ________________, not a _______________. [John 14:26] But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative--that is, the Holy Spirit--he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you. The Holy Ghost isn't the presence of someone _______________, He's the presence of Someone _______________. [Romans 8:11] The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you. [John 16:7] But in fact, it is best for you that I go away, because if I don't, the Advocate won't come. If I do go away, then I will send him to you. [John 14:16-17] And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you. [17] He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth. The world cannot receive him, because it isn't looking for him and doesn't recognize him. But you know him, because he lives with you now and later will be in you. God keeps coming _______________. [Exodus 29:44-45] Yes, I will consecrate the Tabernacle and the altar, and I will consecrate Aaron and his sons to serve me as priests. [45] Then I will live among the people of Israel and be their God. [John 1:14 NIV] The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth. God's presence moved from _______________ us, to __________ us, to _________ us. [Matthew 27:51a] At that moment the curtain in the sanctuary of the Temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. [1 Corinthians 3:16] Don't you realize that all of you together are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God lives in you? You don't have to get God's _______________ when you already have His _______________. [Romans 8:9] But you are not controlled by your sinful nature. You are controlled by the Spirit if you have the Spirit of God living in you. (And remember that those who do not have the Spirit of Christ living in them do not belong to him at all.) The Spirit is God's _______________ to everyone who _______________ to Jesus. [Galatians 5:25 NIV] Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Stop trying to accomplish through _______________ what God wants to accomplish through _______________.

  MIND THE GAP: Purpose in the Gap | Chris Varanelli

  Aug 23, 202638 minS13

  Minding the gap isn’t always ________________. It can be full of ________________. Our stories don’t have to end at our ________________, when we’re most ________________. [Acts 9:3-6] As he was approaching Damascus on this mission, a light from heaven suddenly shone down around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul! Saul! Why are you persecuting me?” “Who are you, lord?” Saul asked. And the voice replied, “I am Jesus, the one you are persecuting! Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.” Life in the gap can be ________________, disheartening, and can feel ________________. God can use our ________________ as ________________. [Philippians 1:12-14] And I want you to know, my dear brothers and sisters, that everything that has happened to me here has helped to spread the Good News. For everyone here, including the whole palace guard, knows that I am in chains because of Christ. And because of my imprisonment, most of the believers here have gained confidence and boldly speak God’s message without fear. The place you ________________ want to be could be the place God wants to ________________ you most. [2 Corinthians 12:7b-10] Three different times I begged the Lord to take it away. Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong. There is as much purpose in the ________________ as in the ________________. [Romans 5:3-4] We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation. [2 Corinthians 1:4] God comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us. God uses the gap to ________________ our faith and ________________ our faith. The gap isn’t just ________________ us for our purpose. It’s ________________ of our purpose. [Romans 8:28] And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.
