Today's message is very raw because it was given less than two months after our beloved Pastor Jan went home to be with Jesus. This sermon has followed me now for many years and here are some of the key things to listen for.

Pastor Ray clearly lays out from the scriptures what this life of love look like (primarily from Ephesians 5) and follows up with some examples from his own life. It's important to note that agape love doesn't have sticky hands, which is much different from eros and phileo. The most amazing thing to me as I've listened so many times is how the Holy Spirit demonstrated His love for Pastor Ray. He didn't belittle him, denigrate him or castigate him for his pain but called him to this sacrificial love that we're calling to walk in. Although God is mighty, he is capable of incredible tenderness.

Scriptures: Ephesians 5, Ephesians 1

To act in agape love is to respond to someone else’s need, pay attention to that need, and then do something about it.

Pawson, David. Is John 3:16 the Gospel?

Soldiering On

Soldiering On Is your church soldiering on without th... Is your church soldiering on without the Holy Spirit, perhaps while praying for revival? This will never produce revival. We must take the position, "Either the Holy Spirit comes, or the church closes. And it's over." How do you know if you're soldiering on? When your church stops confession and repentance. Instead, the church fills up broken cisterns with washed up doctrine, programs and Bible studies, casualness, and happy praise and worship. As a result, the church makes no impact on the culture. Christians remain carnal and unsanctified, and the lost unsaved. This isn't God's heart for the church. Before, the church had revivals. Refreshings of the Holy Spirit brought general change to entire cities and nations. Criminal activities stopped, bars closed, broken families made peace, and people paid back old debts. But, the modern church is so used to soldiering on that we don't even...

Are Only A Few People Going To Be Saved

Are Only A Few People Going To Be Saved https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RZKyB... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RZKyBw32Qk&t=1s Scriptures Used During Today's Broadcast: Luke 13, Matthew 16, Romans 6 Pastor Ray comes against the modern lie that all who say they are Christian must be, regardless of anything else. We must deny ourselves take up our cross and be crucified with Jesus. It's a losing or forfeiting of our dreams and desires, everything to follow Jesus. It's also an intentional leaving of sin and giving of ourselves fully to Jesus. Have you crossed that line dear one??? https://nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=61039&feed_id=5106

End Time Apostasy

End Time Apostasy https://youtu.be/FKOWuM2jb-Q Pasto... https://youtu.be/FKOWuM2jb-Q Pastor Ray focuses today on the End Time apostasy, which has resulted in a lukewarm church with no power. Will you cry out for the church and allow the Holy Spirit to meld you down? Do you hear the lies of the modern church saying that there is no victory by the blood of Jesus. It's time for victory in Jesus, do you have it? It's time to awaken for many and cry out to Jesus. https://www.nationalprayerchapel.com/?p=13126&feed_id=3031
