TRIUMPHANT TRILOGIES – Examining JOHN 14 – Part 3 of 3

TRIUMPHANT TRILOGIES – JOHN 12, 13, 14 – Chapter 14: Part 3 of 3

Introduction: We’re wrapping up this trilogy of JOHN 12, 13 and 14. Then we shall proceed with JOHN 15, 16 and 17. What we have here in this chapter is the LORD’s expression of spiritual family and the love shared, obedience as an indication of that love, and how the Holy Spirit will take up where the LORD Jesus left off.

Further revelation is spoken of, and the means of peace – with GOD and of GOD. The LORD spoke in very explicit terms when He spoke about how the enemy would be defeated and of course it’s by the Cross of Christ that his advantage was taken away, and our liberation began!

CRASH COURSE ON OCCULT, CONFLICT & CHRISTIAN CONVICTION Pt 2 of 2

PART TWO

Teaching #4 – Demonic Influences on Sinners and Saints

Teaching #5 – Spiritual Warfare in the 21st Century


Teaching #4 – Demonic Influences on Sinners and Saints

Are demons a part of our ultra-modern, technologically sophisticated world? Isn’t such a belief rather medieval?
Well instead of thinking of a bunch of pesky red suited gremlins with pitchforks and pointed tails, how about some non-corporeal hyper intelligent entities composed of pure mind?

There are those that believe fallen angels and demons or unclean spirits are synonyms, just different names to describe the same sort of beings.

Others believe that demons and fallen angels are related, but different. I tend to agree with the latter.

The union between fallen angels and human females produced giants or nephilim (“fallen ones”) and they all died at the Flood Judgment. Since they are neither fully angelic nor are they fully human (they weren’t at all intended by the Creator to exist, being a sort of hellish hybrid), they were not consigned to hades or the abyss.

The G.E.P.C Study – PHILIPPIANS 2: Part Three

Going Through Paul’s epistles to Galatia, Ephesus, Philippi, and Colossae

INTRODUCTION: In Part Two of this study in Chapter 2, we examined at some length this passage:

PHILIPPIANS 2:5-7
5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 Who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, 7 but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men.

“…made Himself of no reputation…” – in other words, He disrobed Himself of all His glory and power just so that He’d look like any one of us (The only time He let us peek at Him as He really is, was on the Mount of Transfiguration; MATT 28:3; MARK 9:3) and perhaps in the Garden of Gethsemane when He declared “I AM” (JOHN 18:5-8). Rather, He took upon Himself the form of a bondservant – this is GOD made flesh! He exemplified precisely what it means to be humble, and how He willingly humiliated Himself in order to serve us!

This is astonishing to me – that the Almighty would wash feet, reason with unreasonable religious hypocrites, minister to an inexhaustible degree for the needs of people in healings and provisions.

In continuing in this train of thought. We continue on now in Part Three of Chapter 2…

SEDUCTIONS of SAMHAIN a.k.a. HALLOWEEN

This entry is about the very old custom and tradition of the pagan holiday Samhain (pronounced 'SOW-wane'), known more recently as Halloween whose own origins are based somewhat on its preceding pagan holiday in a blending of the observance of Roman Catholic saints (the dead ones (their only kind), that is).

First, let's have some background on this day from Wikipedia:

Samhain (sɑːwɪn)[1] was a Gaelic harvest festival held on October 31–November 1. It was linked to festivals held around the same time in other Celtic cultures and was popularized as the "Celtic New Year" from the late 19th century, following Sir John Rhys and Sir James Frazer.[2] The date of Samhain was associated with the Catholic All Saints' Day (and later All Souls' Day) from at least the 8th century, and both the secular Gaelic and the Catholic liturgical festival have influenced the secular customs now connected with Halloween.[3]

The medieval Goidelic festival of Samhain marked the end of the harvest, the end of the "lighter half" of the year and beginning of the "darker half". It was celebrated over the course of several days and had some elements of a Festival of the Dead. Bonfires (read about the origins of 'bone fires' and related pagan practices of the Druids and later, the Celts here; note: this is a secular source) played a large part in the festivities. People and their livestock would often walk between two bonfires as a cleansing ritual, and the bones of slaughtered livestock were cast into its flames.[4]

Samhain is celebrated as a religious festival by some neopagans.[5]
