The Spirit of Truth

September 17, 2021September 17, 2021 taylorjamesalbert

“Everything I do, every decision I make is according to St. John 16:13” Jesse Duplantis.

“When the Holy Spirit, who is truth, comes, he shall guide you into all truth, for he will not be presenting his own ideas, but will be passing on to you what he has heard. He will tell you about the future.”

~~~John 16:13 (TLB)~~~

“But when He, the Spirit of Truth (the Truth-giving Spirit) comes, He will guide you into all the Truth (the whole, full Truth). For He will not speak His own message [on His own authority]; but He will tell whatever He hears [from the Father; He will give the message that has been given to Him], and He will announce and declare to you the things that are to come [that will happen in the future].”

~~~John 16:13 (AMPC)~~~

The Inspiring Words of the Lord

August 26, 2021August 26, 2021 taylorjamesalbert

“Oh how I love your law! It is my meditation all the day. Your commandment makes me wiser than my enemies, for it is ever with me. I have more understanding than all my teachers, for your testimonies are my meditation. I understand more than the aged, for I keep your precepts. I hold back my feet from every evil way, in order to keep your word. I do not turn aside from your rules, for you have taught me. How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Through your precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way.”

Is Your Christian Faith Just Your Religion or Is It Your TRUTH?

July 22, 2021July 22, 2021 taylorjamesalbert

Former atheist Police Detective J. Warner Wallace* “Faith is not something that’s blind. It’s the step you take at the end of the evidence trail…And I knew two things, that He was who He said He was and…I am in need of who He says He is….And it changed who Jesus was to me….but that doesn’t make you a Christian….I had believed that the Gospels were telling me the truth. You don’t move from belief that to belief in until you stop reading the Bible for what it says about Jesus and you start reading the Bible for what it says about you…You eventually have to come back to the truth”.

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness”.

~~~1 John 1:9 (KJV)~~~

*Warner, along with Lee Strobel, are called as expert witnesses in “God’s Not Dead 2“.

The Empowering Whole Armor of God

July 14, 2021July 14, 2021 taylorjamesalbert

“In conclusion, be strong in the Lord [be empowered through your union with Him]; draw your strength from Him [that strength which His boundless might provides]. Put on God’s whole armor [the armor of a heavy-armed soldier which God supplies], that you may be able successfully to stand up against [all] the strategies and the deceits of the devil. For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere. Therefore put on God’s complete armor, that you may be able to resist and stand your ground on the evil day [of danger], and, having done all [the crisis demands], to stand [firmly in your place]. Stand therefore [hold your ground], having tightened the belt of truth around your loins and having put on the breastplate of integrity and of moral rectitude and right standing with God, And having shod your feet in preparation [to face the enemy with the firm-footed stability, the promptness, and the readiness produced by the good news] of the Gospel of peace. Lift up over all the [covering] shield of saving faith, upon which you can quench all the flaming missiles of the wicked [one]. And take the helmet of salvation and the sword that the Spirit wields, which is the Word of God. Pray at all times (on every occasion, in every season) in the Spirit, with all [manner of] prayer and entreaty. To that end keep alert and watch with strong purpose and perseverance, interceding in behalf of all the saints (God’s consecrated people)”.

~~~Ephesians 6:10-18 (AMPC)~~~
