A chapter by chapter and verse by verse study of Acts taught by Pastor Paul LeBoutillier of Calvary Chapel Ontario, Oregon. Visit us at www.ccontario.com for online studies through the entire Bible.
My children’s and many of my family members are none believers. It breaks my heart to watch and see this in my life. Can everyone hear please please lift up my kids especially so they can have their eyes opened and no longer be burdened with this spiritual blindness. I’m so desperate for them to know God and his ways. I was in a situation last night where I felt exactly like Paul speaking to the Pharisee. They ask question but only to try to argue the Bible and its truths with me. I’m not a scholar by any means but I know the Holy Spirit lives in me and can do anything. My kids need a heart change and mind reset. Holy Spirit move in their lives open their eyes to see you and your truth God. The wolf has a grip on them. Break the chains that bind them. Help them see you. Please everyone help me pray for their salvation. I am desperate. I was mocked, ridiculed and acoffed at by them. I had nothing to say and only sat quit while they asked me all kinds of ridiculous questions that knew any answer I have would be further mocked. God help them and help me to remain steadfast in your love.
I will be praying for your children as well as continue to pray for mine but I finally told mine I am always learning and don't have all the answers because I am not God but if you hear God's voice and pray then if it is something he wants you to understand HE WILL AND IS ABLE TO GIVE YOU THE UNDERSTANDING, I don't argue with them anymore I tell them that if they want answers Pray to God for the answer but I will not argue about my beliefs, yes they are our children but God does say we must basically love him more than family and I truly believe if we do this God is able to do the impossible for us ❤.
I prayed for yours and mine as well. ❤ God’s children will wake up but they will wake up in their own time. Sometimes they will have to go through some things in order to come to God. That’s how it usually goes. That’s what happened to me. We are some heard headed people. 🙈😔 But! I came to the Lord and I have tough times but I will never leave again. 💕
I thank God for the wisdom and insight given to you, and the platform you have to spread that knowledge and understanding to us. May God continue to bless you!
Very deep and thorough study today. Enjoyed every minute. A powerful study. Well worth watching again and again. LORD I PRAY SOFTEN HEARTS TO BE READY FOR YOUR WORD AMEN.
That was excellent teaching Pastor and covers important points for me about sharing the word. I currently have two members of my family...a sister and a brother in law that are both dying from untreatable cancer. I have tried to share the word with them pointing out that ' if not now then when ? ' and both have refused point blank with different excuses. I have each time prayed before I said anything so as to not say anything stupid but neither will hear it. They will both be dead within a few months if not weeks and will not see the gift that GOD is offering ... it's heartbreaking tbh.. I pray daily that the seed I have planted will be watered and grow before it is too late .... meanwhile I am grateful for this frank teaching that sometimes hearts are so hardened that there is nothing I can do . But GOD !!!!! 🙏🙏🙏. GOD bless you Pastor and the church and Israel till HE comes for us. Gilly wife of Mark
This helps me understand so much. I attended a service in which people were claiming to be “drunk in the spirit” - falling, hysterical etc, the pastor asked the holy spirit to “come down” just before these things started to happen. It nearly ruined my faith experience. For the last two years I have been trying to understand what this baptism means, and denying that it is even a thing. Thank you for helping with my understanding of how the Holy Spirit works. “Power” is certainly not gibberish, drunkenness, and loss of control of one’s actions. Thank you God for your work in us ♥️
