What is a Christian Fast? This will be in my own words, but a fast really is a specified duration of time during which we abstain from foods, drinks, sexual intimacy, and we focus on afflicting the soul and seeking God through prayer, reading our scriptures, for a specific objective, a specific goal. That's what I consider to be a fast.
What does the Bible say about the interpretation of tongues? Now, in order to address this problem, we are going to look at what Apostle Paul taught the Corinthian Church. The interpretation of tongues is not a skill, it is a gift from God, it’s a gift of the Holy Ghost. If you possess this gift, you will learn about it only by using it. You will learn from experience and from listening to the Holy Ghost.
To possess the spiritual gift of discerning of spirits is to know or to recognize, to identify, or to differentiate or distinguish spirits. We are dealing with spirits, when we can know them, identify them, distinguish them, then we are able to discern spirits.
When do we receive the gift of prophecy? Gifts of prophecy are gifts God gives to leaders who are prophets in his church. He supplies them with these favors when they are born again. First Corinthians Twelve verse eight tells us that “to one is given by the Spirit“. It’s the Holy Ghost that gives the gift. Now you may ask, so why is it that Paul says that he imparted gifts to Timothy? I’ll explain.

This week, we are going to look at the gifts of healing. We have been looking at spiritual gifts over the past weeks. Why is the gifts of healing plural? We start at (1 Corinthians 12). Paul addressed two groups of church leaders. He started out by focusing on individual administrations of spiritual gifts. Then he shifted his attention to corporate administrations of spiritual gifts, and specifically, we are dealing with gifts of healing today.

A. What is the word of knowledge in this instance, in this example?
B. The word of knowledge comes by the Holy Ghost.
C. The word of knowledge comes through a leader of the church, and
D. The word of knowledge motivates faith in God.
Just like the word of wisdom does, so too does the word of knowledge, it motivates faith in God. So using these four criteria, I'll be able to show you using at least these two examples that the word of knowledge, follows this pattern.
What Are Gifts Of Tongues? What book are they reading? Many Christians are confusing speaking in tongues with the gifts of tongues; are they the same thing? Who speaks in…
Welcome to my blog. I'm all pumped up and ready to go. I have a very exciting topic I want to discuss with you today, How to be born again?…
My name is Leroy Daley and today I will be doing a Bible study on the born again experience. I pursue Bible studies that are not driven by opinions, but I utilize scriptures to explicate scriptures. First, I'm going to look at what born again is not, then what born again is; finally, I’m going to give you a bonus and then wrap this all up. Born again is not a phrase used by Protestants to describe gaining faith in Jesus Christ. It is not! It is entirely not true and is also not a phrase applied to people who have accepted Jesus Christ as their Redeemer and Savior. Again this is not true. This is just not the case. Next, we cannot say a prayer and be born again. We cannot say any prayer and be reborn. That is not scriptural; it's not in the Bible.
