“The former treatise I made, O Theophilus, concerning all that Jesus began both to do and to teach, until the day in which He was received up, after that He had given commandment through the Holy Spirit unto the apostles whom He had chosen” (Acts 1:1–2). “We behold Him Who hath been made a little lo...

These messages and this ministry are based upon a three-fold supposition, or assumption: 1. That you have a very real concern to know the will of God. 2.

"John indeed baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days hence" (Acts 1:5). "They were all filled with the Holy Spirit" (Acts 2:4). "There is one body, and one Spirit... one Lord, one faith, one baptism" (Ephesians 4:4). The Holy Spirit is, of course, the Spirit of... Read More
