The nine gifts of the Spirit can be consolidated into three different categories. The reason that they can be consolidated into these categories, is because each of the gifts categorized, do something similar. The third of the three categories, are what we call the speaking gifts. The reason we call them the speaking gifts, is because each one of these gifts, say something. The gifts that fall into this category are; prophecy, different kinds of tongues, and the interpretation of tongues. This book looks at how each of these gifts operate.

The Lord committed to Peter, the gospel for the circumcised, and He committed to Paul, the gospel for the uncircumcised. Confusion arises when the two gospels get mixed up.

In this book, we look at what the bible teaches us regarding these two gospels.

This book looks at the difference between the two types of sin, and specifically what is the sin to death, and how believers can be led to commit this sin.

The scripture plainly calls this doctrine the doctrine of “baptisms” – plural. There are three distinct baptisms taught in the New Testament. Just as each baptism is a separate event, so each baptism also fulfils a different role in our walk as believers.

Colossians 1:19-20 “For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, (20) and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross.” The work of salvation that God the Father accomplished through the sacrifice of His Son Christ Jesus is far more extensive than that which is commonly taught or understood in the church. This book is written to explain just one aspect of the work of the cross, i.e. the cleansing power of the blood of Christ that cleanses mankind from all their ...
