HOLY SPIRIT LIP-SERVICE

Non-charismatic may give lip- service to the Holy Spirit but still keep Him at a distance. He offers His power but they cower instead.

THE GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

Soothern Baptists, and others, teach the gifts of the Holy Spirit passed away with the early church. .Although Pentecostals and charismatics can prove otherwise, given the modern church's indifference in seeking them, for rhem they might as wall have.
As to quenching the power of the Holy Spirit, they couldn't care less.

OUR LIFESTYLE

God intends our Christian faith to be our lifestyle, not just a
supplement to a wrdly one.

SAVED BY FAITH

We may be saved by faith and not by works but does that mean we can just sit onour duff?

Phil. 2:12 ¶ Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

GOD'S AQUIREMENT PLAN

It is out of this world.

IN GOD WE TRUST

"In God We Trust" appears on our money but do we do what's fair, give God His share, give God His due...Do you? Or jus accrue?

CHURCH TRADITION

Church tradition is a hindrance to the vitality of the work of the Holy Spirit.

THE SNOOZE BUTTON

The things of this world are a snooze button for the reality of God's supernatural.
