Transcripts: Pastor Chris 001

There is no Christianity without the Holy Spirit.
Shall I say that again? 
There is no Christianity without the Holy Spirit. 
Christianity is a living thing. 
It’s not a religion. 
Most of the world thinks it’s a religion but it’s not. 
Christianity is the living, pulsating, life of Christ in a human being. 
Christianity is the outworking of divinity in humanity. 
It is a revelation of Christ in and through you. 
Are you hearing this? 
It is the everyday walk of God through you among human beings. 
Christianity is the word of God alive in human flesh. 
This is all so far removed from religion. 
When you study your Bible, you not only get information, you get revelation. 
And then beyond that, is the fact that that word which you read; which you study in the Bible; the revealed word of God; becomes one with you as you digest it spiritually. 
In the same way that the food that you eat; the physical food that you eat becomes one with your body; it gets into your system and is responsible for how you grow physically. 
That’s the same way what the word of God does with you when you digest the word of God. 
It gets into your system and becomes one with you; you become so much one that there is no other life, but the life of God in you. 
Are you hearing this? 
Oh this is very, very important; very, very important.

The Operation of God

Col 2:12  Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. The word operation was translated from the Greek:   G1753 ἐνέργεια energeia en-erg'-i-ah From G1756; efficiency (“energy”): - operation, strong, (effectual) working. This gives us an idea of what goes on in the spirit realm when a person comes to Christ. The Scripture says, we are risen with Him through the faith of the operation of God... the energy... the effectual working of God.  Here is what happens in the spirit realm, believers are risen from the dead by this energy - the effectual working of God. And it is made to pass through the faith of this energy. Now, this clearly tells us that this is not Man's faith, it is God's faith.  Notice the first part of this Scripture. It says, Buried with Him in baptism. This is where Man's faith is in operation. Baptism is the answer of a good conscience toward God. The a...

A New Creation

2Co 5:17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. A very simple yet so profound truth that we must not forget: we are new creations in Christ. We are not the person that we were before we came to know Christ. We are a new person, a new creature in Christ. This is very foundational and very, very important. Many Christians tend to dwell on the Cross. They stay there and never want to be removed from there because the Cross meant the forgiveness of sins. And that is true. But the very purpose of the Cross was not the forgiveness of sins, but rather, to condemn sin. A Christian is not a sinner saved by grace as some denominations teach. And that phrase, sinner saved by grace, is never really found in the Bible. A Christian is not a sinner. We were sinners before we became Christians, but when we became Christians, we put on the new man. Religion would tell you that you are not worthy, how that you are ...

Looking At The Big Picture

By looking at Creation from a bird's eye view, perhaps we can have a hint and understand better the work which God has created. In the beginning God said, Let us make man according to our image. (Gen 1:27) So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And throughout the Bible, looking from a macro level, we can see that the purpose of God for man was not changed. God has it in His heart to make us like Him. And the things that has happened in the past and those that are happening now and will still happen in the future all add up to that end. But we cannot really say that God has authored everything that takes place because even right now, we know we are free to do whatever we want, and we know that we do it by ourselves only and not by some controlling force from the outside. We can be persuaded and moved by some external forces, but still the decision to act is solely attributed to the individual. God has foreknowle...
