    What is the armor of God? How do you put on the armor of God?
    Jul 29 2025
    The armor of God represents who Jesus Christ is to us and how He is our defense against the fiery darts of the enemy. The belt of truth? Jesus is the Truth. The breastplate of righteousness? Jesus is our righteousness. Feet shod with the gospel of peace? Jesus is the Prince of Peace. The helmet of salvation? Jesus is our salvation. Sword of the Spirit (the Word of God)? Jesus is the living Word! The bottom line is that Jesus Himself is our greatest defense and offense in spiritual battle.

  • What is God's Will for My Life?

    What is God's Will for My Life?
    Jul 22 2025
    It’s this sort of teaching that can really paralyze a person. What is God’s will for your life? Scripture actually tells us! God’s will is that we give thanks, talk to our Heavenly Father, and bear the fruit of the Spirit. In short, God’s will is knowing and expressing Jesus. And there’s no falling in and out of God’s will either. God never intended us to fall prey to such an idea. God’s will is Jesus, and since you’re always in Him, you’ll never fall out!

  • How can you hear from God?

    How can you hear from God?
    Jul 15 2025
    While some claim to hear audibly from God, the New Testament never says we’ll hear from Him in this way. Instead, it encourages us that we are in union with Christ and can walk by faith in Him (1 Corinthians 6:17; Galatians 2:20). God’s Spirit communicates with us through the new, obedient heart and new spirit He has given us (2 Peter 1:3-4; Hebrews 8:8-12; John 4:24).

  • What does being filled with the Spirit mean?

    What does being filled with the Spirit mean?
    Jul 8 2025
    Some believe that being “filled with the Spirit” is about having a certain spiritual gift like tongues or prophecy. They imagine being “filled with the Spirit” to mean getting more of God’s Spirit, a second blessing, or an extra anointing. But Ephesians is clear that being “filled with the Spirit” is simply knowing the love of Christ and being inspired by His great love (Ephesians 3:19; 5:18-21).

  • Do you need a “second baptism” or a “second blessing”?

    Do you need a “second baptism” or a “second blessing”?
    Jul 1 2025
    No, all believers are baptized into the Spirit at salvation when we believe. At that time, we are blessed with every spiritual blessing (Ephesians 1:3), and we have everything we need for life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3-4). We are complete in Christ, and we do not need anything more than what we already have in Him.

  • What does it mean to “walk by the Spirit?"

    What does it mean to “walk by the Spirit?"
    Jun 24 2025
    Walking by the Spirit (Galatians 5:16) is simply trusting Christ in you to produce the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23). Walking by the Spirit should not be confused with being “in” the Spirit, which refers to salvation. All Christians are always in the Spirit (Romans 8:9), even though we don’t always walk by the Spirit.

  • How do you get more of God’s Spirit?

    How do you get more of God’s Spirit?
    Jun 17 2025
    Some believe we can get more of God’s Spirit over time. However, God has given every believer the Holy Spirit in full (John 14:23). This means there is no need for a second portion or second blessing from the Holy Spirit. We are blessed with every spiritual blessing in Christ Jesus, and we have everything we need for life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3-4; Ephesians 1:3).

  • What is the gift of tongues?

    What is the gift of tongues?
    Jun 10 2025
    Some believe the gift of tongues involves a heavenly prayer language for the purpose of talking to God and/or edifying one’s own self. But Scripture teaches us that tongues involves sharing the Gospel in foreign (human) languages for the purpose of evangelism (Acts 2:8). 1 Corinthians 14 is actually encouraging believers not to abuse their missionary gift of tongues by bringing it into the church service and speaking in a mysterious way that only God understands.
