The Scriptural command to all believers is “Be filled with the Spirit” (Eph. 5:18). Dr. C I. Scofield points out that the... Read More

God is constantly both receiving and issuing emergency calls. Some events, which you could not have foreseen, call for God’s immediate intervention. Other situations develop to a point of crisis.

The Holy Spirit is the wonderful third Person of the Trinity about whom we know so little. He loves so tenderly, cares so personally, and ministers to us so faithfully. How amazing that perhaps the most common symbol of this beautiful Person found in the Bible is flaming fire! Why does Scripture cho... Read More

Joel, the prophet of the coming of the Holy Ghost, held up as the first of Israel’s prophets the immense beaconlight of His coming.
