THE JOURNEY

Personal development is the very foundation of all leadership and ministry. Without a rock-solid foundation at the very core of our lives, all superstructures of leadership and ministry are vulnerable to fragmentation and even collapse. Emotional, intellectual and spiritual maturation are necessary for influential leadership.

Bi-131 The Divine Inspiration Of The bible

Christianity is the religion of a Book. Christianity is based upon the impregnable rock of Holy Scripture. The starting point of all doctrinal discussion must be the Bible. Upon the foundation of the Divine inspiration of the Bible stands or falls the entire edifice of Christian truth.—“If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?” (Ps. 11:3). Surrender the dogma of verbal inspiration and you are left like a rudderless ship on a stormy sea—at the mercy of every wind that blows. Deny that the Bible is, without any qualifications, the very Word of God, and you are left without any ultimate standard of measurement and without any supreme authority. It is useless to discuss any doctrine taught by the Bible until you are prepared to acknowledge, unreservedly, that the Bible is the final court of appeal. Grant that the Bible is a Divine revelation and communication of God’s own mind and will to men, and you have a fixed starting point from which advance can be made into the domain of truth. Grant that the Bible is (in its original manuscripts) inerrant and infallible and you reach the place where study of its contents is both practicable and profitable.

His-131 The Way To Pentecost

PayPal

The Apostles' Creed contains ten articles on the Person and Work of Christ, and only one on the Holy Spirit. The proportion of ten to one about represents the interest in the doctrine of the Spirit in the history of Christian thought. No doctrine of the Christian faith has been so neglected. Sermons and hymns are singularly barren on this subject, and the last great book on the Spirit was written in 1674. This is all the more remarkable when we remember that the Holy Spirit is the ultimate fact of Revelation and the unique force in Redemption. No other religion has anything corresponding to the Christian doctrine of the Spirit, and in the Christian religion there is nothing so vital, pervasive, and effective.

RLEdu131 The Pursuit of God

There is deep insight, sobriety of style, and a insight that is refreshing. The author A.W. Tozer has few quotations but he knows the saints and mystics of the centuries—Augustine, Nicholas of Cusa, Thomas a Kempis, von Hegel, Finney, Wesley and many more. The ten chapters are heart searching and the prayers at the close of each are for the closet, not pulpit. One can feel the nearness of God while reading and perhaps reciting them. A course that is essential and everyone will pass!

This handbook, Pray Like a Pro, will not only equip the battle proven veteran, but will also empower the newest recruit in the army of God. This simple tool will enable every Christian to employ the most powerful force known to mankind - the power of prayer! Having watched the author of this work as she agonized in prayer and study and then to see the fruit of her prayers produced through the years, I yield thanksgiving to Jesus Christ for such revelation on the teaching of how to pray! As believers of all faiths study and follow the prayer guidelines in Pray Like a Pro, each will be led to a new dimension in prayer that will ultimately produce victory after victory in this new millennium. Leroy R. Kelly Pastor



The weapon of Prayer

"GOD'S great plan for the redemption of mankind is as much bound up to prayer for its prosperity and success as when the decree creating the movement was issued from the Father, bearing on its frontage the imperative, universal and eternal condition, "Ask of me, and I will give thee the heathen for thy inheritance and the uttermost part of the earth for thy possession." In many places an alarming state of things has come to pass, in that the many who are enrolled in our churches are not praying men and women. Many of those occupying prominent positions in church life are not praying men. It is greatly to feared that much of the work of the Church is being done by those who are perfect strangers to the closet. Small wonder that the work does not succeed.
