Seminar on "The Holy Spirit" Powering, Baptizing, Indwelling By Sammy Flanary

The Seminar on "The Holy Spirit" Empower, Baptism and Indwelling, was an absolutley amazing study. God,s Word is powerful and His Spirit is still alive and indwells His children. God's power is just as powerful today as it ever was or ever will be. Even though the outward manifestation of that power has ceased, the apostle John in John 20:30-31 said "Jesus did many other miraculous signs in the presence of His disciples which are not recorded in this book, but that these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name." We do not need to see miracals today to believe that God is powerful, there is sufficent evidence that Jesus is God and that He can save us, and that through Jesus we can be reconciled unto God. Separated from God by our sins, we can be reunited with God through the one time for all time sacrifice of Jesus Christ. When baptized into Christ we are forgiven of our sin's and we recieve the gift of the Holy Spirit and God add's us to His church (The Kingdom of God). Romans 8:9-11 say that "... if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ. But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness. And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through the Spirit, who lives in you."
