Pentecost Day in the Word 2011
Part 1
Matt Tompary
2 Timothy 1:7 Matt was reminded in Paul's prayer : we've been given power, love, and sound mind
We're just scratching the surface. You are not who you used to be. We get born again and we must grow up. T
The starting point of any life is birth. We have newness of life...
John 3:1 no man can do these miracles unless God be with him. YOU CANNOT see the kingdom of God except a man be born again. Nicodemeous couldn't see verse 4 and 9. Verse 17- He did it when we needed it. Romans 10:9 and 10 it's no longer dependent on JC. Nicodemeous needed something to get out of the dark. Here it is, our starting point. You look like your parents. If you got all the characteristics you needed to grow up. Being born again of God's spirit you have all you need. There are limits to being your parents children. With Gods spirit your potential is limitless. Philippians 1:3-6 When he reads this he thinks about the Memphis believers. Always in every prayer of mine for you all making request with joy. Romans 8:9
The new birth is a spiritual birth. It's beyond the realm of the five senses. Look how many times "Christ in you" is referred to here. Romans is the starting point for finding out who you are. Verse 11 Spirit quickens your corruptible bodies. Verse 15 He's not God the creator to us here. He's your personal daddy
It wasn't possible to be Gods kids before Pentecost. This gives us a life... Not just exist. Imagine life without the spirit of God. We can Speak in Tongues! Verse 16
Galatians 4:4-7 heir of God's through Christ Acts 2:1-4 day of Pentecost (spoke in tongues)
I John 3 Behold
Ephesians 3:27 When is then last time God created? He created in you...
Colossians 3:10 we can't get any better than that!
1 Peter 1:23 being born again (thank you God) being incorruptible by the Word of God. He just spoke it. Romans 5:18- 6:1-Look for "life" Saved is not some distant thing. It's right now. Romans is the starting point. It tells what we have, where we are, and where we are going. Corinthians were doing Romans 6:1
2 Corinthians 5:14-
Verse 16 Look at your bros and sisters in Christ like this "We know no man after the flesh."
Do you know how great you really are? This is reproof! You want to wake up loving God, you want to speak in tongues... If you have the attitude that you want to do better. God will show you what you need. When you have the Word over yourself, you will have the Word over your family, the Word over your town, Word over the World. Just fall in love with God. Carole Bowden
1 Timothy 2:4 Grow up!
Hosea 4:6 People are destroyed for a lack of knowledge. 2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is God breathed. God wrote the bible to pour out his heart. You can't get below the surface unless you get your head in the book. Romans 12:2 the way you change is to change your mind. She used to think God was angry; she learned God's true nature and had to change her mind. Ephesians 4:15 God wants us to grow up by speaking and sharing your heart the things God is blessing you with.
