James 5:15 "And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven."In this passage of scripture, the Holy Spirit speaks about the prayer of faith. And He speaks about the certainty of the outcome of this type of prayer. For in this passage, the Holy Spirit tells us categorically, that the prayer of faith will (not might) heal the sick (the word translated "save" more correctly...

The Lord committed to Peter, the gospel for the circumcised, and He committed to Paul, the gospel for the uncircumcised. Confusion arises when the two gospels get mixed up. Most of the confusion arises among the gentile believers, which is why the Lord Jesus specifically anointed the apostle Paul to teach His gentile believers what in the law, was acceptable for them to observe and what was not. In this book, we look at what the bible teaches us regarding...

There is a degree of controversy in the church today, about suffering. There are those, who teach that the church is not meant to suffer at all, but rather, that we are meant to live victoriously in this life. Some even teach, that the church is meant to take dominion in the earth and deliver the kingdoms of the world to the Lord, when He returns. And then there are those, who teach that we are to accept all forms of adversity in this life, as part...

One of the fundamental differences between the saints of the old covenant and the saints of the new covenant, is that we have the Holy Spirit residing on the inside of us, whereas the saints under the old covenant did not. Because of this fact, God leads His children under the new covenant, completely differently to the way that He led His servants under the old. The primary way that the Lord led the saints under the old covenant was through the office...

There are six foundational doctrines to the Christian faith. Because they are foundational, every believer should have a clear understanding of each one of these doctrines, and live by them. Those who have a clear understanding of these doctrines and who also live by them, will have a sure foundation. And they will not be deceived by any false teachings, that they may come across in their Christian walk. Of the six foundational doctrines, the two...

The scripture plainly calls this doctrine the doctrine of "baptisms"—plural. There are three distinct baptisms taught in the New Testament. Just as each baptism is a separate event, so each baptism also fulfils a different role in our walk as believers. This book looks at each baptism in detail, explaining not only what each baptism is about, but also the benefits of each one. Which is why our Lord Jesus put them in place in His church.

It is precisely because we have received complete forgiveness for our sins, that we can in turn extend forgiveness to those who sin against us. In other words, God gave us the example which we are to follow. Believers who struggle to forgive others, have forgotten just how much the Lord Jesus has forgiven them. This book teaches how to forgive.

There is a category of gifts, called ministry gifts. The reason that they are called ministry gifts is because those who receive them, are called by God to the ministry, i.e. they are called to serve the church in the ministry of the gospel. God is the one who gives these gifts, and they are appointed by Him. In total, there are ten ministry gifts listed in the scriptures. There are five main gifts, which are the apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor...
