AN INSULT?
To not obey Luke 11:9-13 iS to deny that which Jesus died for!
JOHN CHAPTER 16
1 ¶ These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended. 2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service. 3 And these things will they do unto you, because they have not known the Father, nor me. 4 But these things have I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not unto you at the beginning, because I was with you. 5 But now I go my way to him that sent me; and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou? 6 But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart. 7 ¶ Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. 8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9 Of sin, because they believe not on me; 10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; 11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. 12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. 13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. 14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. 15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you. 16 ¶ A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.

THE BIG QUESTION
In the early church signs and wonders were commonplace.
So why are they so out of place in so many of the presI day churches today?
I would be blessed by your comments

HOLY SPIRIT BAPTISM
I have observed that there is a practice of using the the prepositions in, with, of, and by interchangeably when referring to the baptism in the Holy Spirit. Since they all have different meanings they cannot all be correct. Since baptize means to immerse, "in' would seem to be the correct choice. The use of"by is the most misleading, since it refers to a different baptism.
5 Romans 6:3
Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
6 1 Corinthians 12:13
For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
Galatians 3:27
For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
LUKE 11:9-13 GIVES US OUR MARCHING ORDERS!

THE ULTIMATE BAILOUT
12 Romans 8:11
But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

GOD'S ECONOMY
In God's economy the coin of the realm is His supernatural,
And it is available to His obedient sons and daughters.
Luke 11:9-13
And it is available to His obedient sons and daughters.
Luke 11:9-13
DD YOU AGREE?
Studying the Bible is doing for ourselves.
Doing what is says is doing for God.
Not doing what it says is disobeying God.
If we are not applying what we read, it doesn't matter if we read it or not.

tHE GREAT OMISSION?
when a denomination's leadership avoids the supernatural and
their seminaries avoid the supernatural, and turn out ministers who do the
same, Is it any wonder their church limit themselves in carrying out the
great commission?
Don' they know they are denying very power that launched the early church. Is it any wonder they are losing members?
AN ANNOUNNCEMENT
It took a bit of doing but today I arrived at my 96th birthday.
Tne secret; it was done one day at a time.
