00:00:01.260 --> 00:00:03.750
This program is made
possible by the giving
2
00:00:03.750 --> 00:00:06.990
of the God called partners
of Renner Ministries.
3
00:00:07.920 --> 00:00:09.330
Welcome to today's program.
4
00:00:09.330 --> 00:00:11.850
My name is Rick Renner
and I'm very excited
5
00:00:11.850 --> 00:00:15.690 line:15%
because today we're gonna be
discussing the other benefits
6
00:00:15.690 --> 00:00:19.530 line:15%
of being regularly filled
with the Holy Spirit.
7
00:00:19.530 --> 00:00:22.290 line:15%
You see, we begin with an
initial baptism in the Holy
8
00:00:22.290 --> 00:00:25.920 line:15%
Spirit, but after that there
are additional in fillings.
9
00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:29.040 line:15%
And if you've been baptized
in the Holy Spirit once,
10
00:00:29.040 --> 00:00:31.950 line:15%
which I call the work of
grace, that's not the end.
11
00:00:31.950 --> 00:00:33.960 line:15%
That just starts you in the power of God
12
00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:35.940 line:15%
and gets you speaking in tongues.
13
00:00:35.940 --> 00:00:38.280 line:15%
But later in life, there are multiple in
14
00:00:38.280 --> 00:00:39.810
fillings with the Holy Spirit.
15
00:00:39.810 --> 00:00:42.540
And I'm gonna be showing this
to you today in scripture.
16
00:00:42.540 --> 00:00:44.580 line:15%
Maybe you need a fresh touch.
17
00:00:44.580 --> 00:00:48.060 line:15%
Well, God wants to give you
a fresh infilling today.
18
00:00:48.060 --> 00:00:50.070 line:15%
But hey, order the entire series.
19
00:00:50.070 --> 00:00:52.230 line:15%
And today is the last day that
we're offering this on the
20
00:00:52.230 --> 00:00:54.720 line:15%
program, which is called, Speaking in Tongues:
21
00:00:54.720 --> 00:00:58.050 line:15%
What is it and is it really for everyone?
22
00:00:58.050 --> 00:00:59.730 line:15%
We've explained what it is.
23
00:00:59.730 --> 00:01:01.650 line:15%
It's your spirit speaking to God.
24
00:01:01.650 --> 00:01:04.530 line:15%
And I've showed you very
clearly in scripture
25
00:01:04.530 --> 00:01:07.440 line:15%
that it really is for everyone.
26
00:01:07.440 --> 00:01:10.530 line:15%
Those who say, well, it's for some and not for others,
27
00:01:10.530 --> 00:01:13.620 line:15%
they don't understand what it's all about.
28
00:01:13.620 --> 00:01:15.540 line:15%
When you really understand
that your spirit
29
00:01:15.540 --> 00:01:18.150 line:15%
and your spirit wants
to communicate with God,
30
00:01:18.150 --> 00:01:20.970 line:15%
and every born again person
spirit wants to communicate
31
00:01:20.970 --> 00:01:23.460 line:15%
with God, then you understand
that when the spirit
32
00:01:23.460 --> 00:01:25.140 line:15%
of God baptizes you in power
33
00:01:25.140 --> 00:01:28.530 line:15%
and looses the tongue of
your spirit, it's natural
34
00:01:28.530 --> 00:01:29.820 line:15%
for every Christian
35
00:01:29.820 --> 00:01:32.370 line:15%
to speak in tongues which is their spirit
36
00:01:32.370 --> 00:01:34.410 line:15%
communicating with God.
37
00:01:34.410 --> 00:01:38.250 line:15%
In John 4:24, Jesus said, God's a spirit.
38
00:01:38.250 --> 00:01:41.040 line:15%
And in 1 Thessalonians 5:23, we find out
39
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:42.240 line:15%
that we are spirits.
40
00:01:42.240 --> 00:01:44.640 line:15%
So when you pray in tongues,
it's not just gibberish,
41
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:47.730 line:15%
it is your spirit speaking
to God who is a spirit.
42
00:01:47.730 --> 00:01:50.190 line:15%
You're speaking in a spiritual language,
43
00:01:50.190 --> 00:01:53.670 line:15%
and that's why it really is
for everyone that is born
44
00:01:53.670 --> 00:01:56.880 line:15%
again. This series will make it very clear to you,
45
00:01:56.880 --> 00:01:58.380 line:15%
by the way, it's 5-parts
46
00:01:58.380 --> 00:02:01.410 line:15%
and it comes in all kinds of
formats with a study guide.
47
00:02:01.410 --> 00:02:03.960 line:15%
And I believe this study
guide's really important
48
00:02:03.960 --> 00:02:05.970 line:15%
because when you read the
material while you're seeing
49
00:02:05.970 --> 00:02:08.940 line:15%
or hearing the series, it
really causes all of this
50
00:02:08.940 --> 00:02:10.860 line:15%
to gel inside of you.
51
00:02:10.860 --> 00:02:12.930 line:15%
And we're also offering you today,
52
00:02:12.930 --> 00:02:14.670 line:15%
the last day on the program,
53
00:02:14.670 --> 00:02:16.260 line:15%
my book called, The Holy Spirit and You -
54
00:02:16.260 --> 00:02:19.890 line:15%
Working Together as Heaven's Dynamic Duo.
55
00:02:19.890 --> 00:02:23.820 line:15%
We saw in the last program
that power is a byproduct
56
00:02:23.820 --> 00:02:26.130 line:15%
of receiving the baptism
and the Holy Spirit.
57
00:02:26.130 --> 00:02:27.840 line:15%
And when you receive the baptism
58
00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:29.010 line:15%
and the Holy Spirit, you're supposed
59
00:02:29.010 --> 00:02:32.520 line:15%
to become the Dynamic Duo
you and the spirit of God.
60
00:02:32.520 --> 00:02:35.580 line:15%
And when you receive the
baptism in the Holy Spirit,
61
00:02:35.580 --> 00:02:38.220 line:15%
it unlooses the gifts of the Holy Spirit
62
00:02:38.220 --> 00:02:40.050 line:15%
to operate through you.
63
00:02:40.050 --> 00:02:42.210 line:15%
And I wrote a book called, Why We Need The
64
00:02:42.210 --> 00:02:43.530 line:15%
Gifts of the Holy Spirit.
65
00:02:43.530 --> 00:02:46.080 line:15%
We need them and this book will show you how
66
00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:50.490 line:15%
to operate in supernatural gifts. And because it's brand new
67
00:02:50.490 --> 00:02:52.170 line:15%
and I want you to know about it,
68
00:02:52.170 --> 00:02:54.690 line:15%
I have a book which is called, Fallen Angels, Giants,
69
00:02:54.690 --> 00:02:57.900 line:15%
Monsters, and the World Before the Flood.
70
00:02:57.900 --> 00:03:00.880 line:15%
And the Forewords are written by my friend Perry Stone
71
00:03:00.880 --> 00:03:02.170 line:15%
and Andrew Jones.
72
00:03:02.170 --> 00:03:05.080 line:15%
And the subtitle says, How the events of Noah's Ark
73
00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:08.800 line:15%
and the Flood are relevant to the End of The Age.
74
00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:12.730 line:15%
And this book has more than 300 end notes.
75
00:03:12.730 --> 00:03:14.830 line:15%
That's how researched it is.
76
00:03:14.830 --> 00:03:19.000 line:15%
And it has more than 300 pieces of art, graphs,
77
00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:23.170 line:15%
illustrations, and original
photography that my team took
78
00:03:23.170 --> 00:03:25.660 line:15%
of the ruins of Noah's Ark and my friend,
79
00:03:25.660 --> 00:03:29.950 line:15%
it really is laying on the lower slopes of Mount Ararat.
80
00:03:29.950 --> 00:03:32.530 line:15%
It's amazing. But all that's in this book.
81
00:03:32.530 --> 00:03:34.450 line:15%
Hey, if you need prayer also let us
82
00:03:34.450 --> 00:03:35.470 line:15%
know how to pray for you.
83
00:03:35.470 --> 00:03:38.650 line:15%
We believe there's a miracle
with your name on it waiting
84
00:03:38.650 --> 00:03:40.630 line:15%
for you right now.
85
00:03:40.630 --> 00:03:42.850 line:15%
And if you'll just send us an email
86
00:03:42.850 --> 00:03:45.970 line:15%
or call the number that's
on the screen right now,
87
00:03:45.970 --> 00:03:48.070 line:15%
we are waiting for your call.
88
00:03:48.070 --> 00:03:52.060 line:15%
We're gonna pray and Jesus
will do what needs to be done.
89
00:03:52.060 --> 00:03:54.880 line:15%
He knows what needs to
be done and he'll move.
90
00:03:54.880 --> 00:03:56.740 line:15%
You may not even know
what needs to be done.
91
00:03:56.740 --> 00:03:59.260 line:15%
Jesus knows and we'll pray with you.
92
00:03:59.260 --> 00:04:03.460 line:15%
And Jesus who knows your situation, he will do what needs
93
00:04:03.460 --> 00:04:04.510 line:15%
to be done for you.
94
00:04:04.510 --> 00:04:07.270 line:15%
We'll pray in faith and he'll move.
95
00:04:07.270 --> 00:04:09.700 line:15%
So reach out to us and
let us know how to pray.
96
00:04:09.700 --> 00:04:11.770 line:15%
But when we come back, we're going
97
00:04:11.770 --> 00:04:14.050 line:15%
to see there's one
baptism in the Holy Spirit
98
00:04:14.050 --> 00:04:16.000 line:15%
and there are many in fillings,
99
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:17.890 line:15%
and we're going to see the result
100
00:04:17.890 --> 00:04:21.070 line:15%
of being continually filled
with the Holy Spirit.
101
00:04:21.070 --> 00:04:22.270
I'll be back in just a moment.
102
00:04:23.200 --> 00:04:26.380
Get ready for a teaching
that feeds your spirit
103
00:04:26.380 --> 00:04:30.580
and your mind where the word
is the anchor in uncertain
104
00:04:30.580 --> 00:04:35.230
times and doctrine
doesn't bend to culture.
105
00:04:35.230 --> 00:04:36.670
We keep it simple,
106
00:04:36.670 --> 00:04:41.670
but dive deep revealing a
truth that strengthens us,
107
00:04:42.100 --> 00:04:43.750
a love that emboldens
108
00:04:45.130 --> 00:04:47.290
and a mission that touches the world.
109
00:04:49.630 --> 00:04:51.190
Let's join Rick Renner.
110
00:04:52.810 --> 00:04:54.040
I want you to reach for your Bible.
111
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:55.570 line:15%
We always use the Bible in this program,
112
00:04:55.570 --> 00:04:59.920 line:15%
and today we're going to be going to Ephesians 5.
113
00:04:59.920 --> 00:05:02.050 line:15%
But before we go there, first I want
114
00:05:02.050 --> 00:05:03.400 line:15%
to share two testimonies.
115
00:05:03.400 --> 00:05:05.980 line:15%
You say, Rick, why do you
wanna share these testimonies?
116
00:05:05.980 --> 00:05:08.320 line:15%
Because they demonstrate the power of God.
117
00:05:08.320 --> 00:05:11.110 line:15%
They demonstrate answers to prayer.
118
00:05:11.110 --> 00:05:14.140 line:15%
And my friends, Jesus will
answer you if you'll cry
119
00:05:14.140 --> 00:05:15.460
out to him in faith.
120
00:05:15.460 --> 00:05:18.880 line:15%
But listen to these two
amazing testimonies.
121
00:05:18.880 --> 00:05:22.390 line:15%
One woman called for prayer
for a 17-year-old young man
122
00:05:22.390 --> 00:05:24.850 line:15%
who came down with viral pneumonia.
123
00:05:24.850 --> 00:05:27.820 line:15%
He was so seriously ill
that he was life flighted
124
00:05:27.820 --> 00:05:29.320 line:15%
to another hospital.
125
00:05:29.320 --> 00:05:31.870 line:15%
We prayed for healing and they would live
126
00:05:31.870 --> 00:05:35.230 line:15%
and proclaimed God's amazing
goodness over his life.
127
00:05:35.230 --> 00:05:38.230 line:15%
And this morning we made
a follow up call to see
128
00:05:38.230 --> 00:05:40.635 line:15%
how he was doing after prayer was made.
129
00:05:40.635 --> 00:05:43.750 line:15%
And the good news is
he's off the ventilator
130
00:05:43.750 --> 00:05:46.270 line:15%
and came out of a coma.
131
00:05:46.270 --> 00:05:49.540
My friends, God really
does miracles when we ask.
132
00:05:49.540 --> 00:05:52.060
But here's one more testimony.
133
00:05:52.060 --> 00:05:54.100 line:15%
We spoke with a man today who along
134
00:05:54.100 --> 00:05:56.470 line:15%
with his wife has been a
partner with the ministry
135
00:05:56.470 --> 00:05:58.250 line:15%
for years. He called
136
00:05:58.250 --> 00:06:00.410 line:15%
to give a praise report about their son,
137
00:06:00.410 --> 00:06:02.870 line:15%
who last year got a severe case of the flu
138
00:06:02.870 --> 00:06:04.940 line:15%
and was put on a ventilator.
139
00:06:04.940 --> 00:06:07.460 line:15%
The doctors said they did
not expect him to live,
140
00:06:07.460 --> 00:06:09.590 line:15%
but we began to pray for him.
141
00:06:09.590 --> 00:06:12.320 line:15%
After prayer, he was
taken off the ventilator
142
00:06:12.320 --> 00:06:14.150 line:15%
and they brought their son home
143
00:06:14.150 --> 00:06:17.390 line:15%
yesterday. The doctor said he was in too good a shape
144
00:06:17.390 --> 00:06:19.490 line:15%
to be sent to our rehab facility
145
00:06:19.490 --> 00:06:22.400 line:15%
so they went ahead and sent him home.
146
00:06:22.400 --> 00:06:26.300
One doctor asked him why he thought he healed so amazingly.
147
00:06:26.300 --> 00:06:28.700 line:15%
He told him it was because of God
148
00:06:28.700 --> 00:06:31.820 line:15%
and the faith filled prayers
that had been prayed for him.
149
00:06:31.820 --> 00:06:33.830 line:15%
The doctor was amazed.
150
00:06:33.830 --> 00:06:37.670 line:15%
Their son is an absolute miracle.
151
00:06:37.670 --> 00:06:42.050 line:15%
Is that exciting? That's what
happens when we pray in faith.
152
00:06:42.050 --> 00:06:44.360 line:15%
Wow. But hey, reach for your Bible.
153
00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:47.750 line:15%
And today let's go to Ephesians 5,
154
00:06:47.750 --> 00:06:51.710 line:15%
where we read - in verse 17: Wherefore,
155
00:06:51.710 --> 00:06:53.480
be ye not unwise,
156
00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:58.220
but understand what the
will of the Lord is.
157
00:06:58.220 --> 00:07:01.040
And now Paul's going to
tell us what the will
158
00:07:01.040 --> 00:07:02.780
of the Lord is.
159
00:07:02.780 --> 00:07:05.300
Do you want to do the will
of God with your life?
160
00:07:05.300 --> 00:07:08.870
I know you do. Now He
says, let's understand
161
00:07:08.870 --> 00:07:10.730
what the will of the Lord is.
162
00:07:10.730 --> 00:07:12.800
So he is gonna tell us what it is.
163
00:07:13.670 --> 00:07:16.220
The next verse he gives us the answer -
164
00:07:16.220 --> 00:07:19.850
And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess,
165
00:07:19.850 --> 00:07:23.810
but be filled with the spirit.
166
00:07:23.810 --> 00:07:26.510
Let me ask you a question.
Why do people drink wine?
167
00:07:27.380 --> 00:07:28.820
Do they drink it because they like the
168
00:07:28.820 --> 00:07:30.140
taste or even hard liquor?
169
00:07:30.140 --> 00:07:33.230
Why do people drink? People usually drink
170
00:07:33.230 --> 00:07:35.540
because they like the effect.
171
00:07:35.540 --> 00:07:37.670
For example, if they're having a hard day,
172
00:07:37.670 --> 00:07:39.200
maybe they go out and take a drink.
173
00:07:39.200 --> 00:07:41.330
Well, my friends, you
shouldn't drink at all.
174
00:07:41.330 --> 00:07:43.460
You shouldn't drink at
all. You're a Christian.
175
00:07:43.460 --> 00:07:44.840
You don't need to be drinking.
176
00:07:44.840 --> 00:07:47.600
But we're talking about worldly people. Why do they drink?
177
00:07:47.600 --> 00:07:49.700
They drink to loosen up.
178
00:07:49.700 --> 00:07:52.250
They drink because they've
had a bad day or they drink
179
00:07:52.250 --> 00:07:54.320
because they want to have a good time.
180
00:07:54.320 --> 00:07:56.990
When people drink, they come under the influence:
181
00:07:56.990 --> 00:07:59.180
they feel different, they talk different,
182
00:07:59.180 --> 00:08:00.740
they behave different.
183
00:08:00.740 --> 00:08:02.810
They're going after the effect.
184
00:08:02.810 --> 00:08:05.660
And the truth is when most
people begin to drink,
185
00:08:05.660 --> 00:08:08.090
they don't even like the taste of alcohol.
186
00:08:08.090 --> 00:08:12.290
Why? Because your body is
not made to consume alcohol.
187
00:08:12.290 --> 00:08:16.100
You have to develop a taste for alcohol.
188
00:08:16.100 --> 00:08:17.180
My friends, you don't need it.
189
00:08:17.180 --> 00:08:19.400
Why even develop the taste? You don't need it.
190
00:08:20.300 --> 00:08:24.165
People drink because they feel
different when they're drunk.
191
00:08:25.265 --> 00:08:29.870
But the Bible says be not drunk with wine.
192
00:08:29.870 --> 00:08:33.740
The Greek literally means - don't be intoxicated with wine.
193
00:08:33.740 --> 00:08:37.550
But Paul says, be filled with the spirit -
194
00:08:38.480 --> 00:08:41.150
which means - if you're filled with the spirit,
195
00:08:41.150 --> 00:08:43.970
it's also going to give you an effect.
196
00:08:43.970 --> 00:08:46.130
So rather than go for
the effect of alcohol,
197
00:08:46.130 --> 00:08:47.270
which is temporary
198
00:08:47.270 --> 00:08:49.880
and it's bad for you, Paul says, guys,
199
00:08:49.880 --> 00:08:51.590
leave the alcohol alone.
200
00:08:51.590 --> 00:08:55.380
Instead be filled with the spirit, speaking
201
00:08:55.380 --> 00:08:58.080
to yourselves in psalms and hymns
202
00:08:58.080 --> 00:08:59.550
and spiritual songs, singing
203
00:08:59.550 --> 00:09:02.010
and making melody in
your heart to the Lord
204
00:09:02.010 --> 00:09:05.070
and submitting one to another
out of the fear of God.
205
00:09:05.070 --> 00:09:07.920
Well, my friends, when you're singing,
206
00:09:07.920 --> 00:09:10.710
making melody in your heart
to the Lord, psalms. hymns,
207
00:09:10.710 --> 00:09:14.040
spiritual songs, and just loving to submit to one another,
208
00:09:14.040 --> 00:09:16.620
you're definitely under some kind of an effect.
209
00:09:16.620 --> 00:09:18.270
Something has happened to you
210
00:09:18.270 --> 00:09:20.400
that has changed your attitude.
211
00:09:20.400 --> 00:09:22.140
It has changed your behavior.
212
00:09:22.140 --> 00:09:25.260
It's changed the way that you see things.
213
00:09:25.260 --> 00:09:30.260
And I call this the inebriating effect of the Holy Spirit.
214
00:09:30.360 --> 00:09:31.500
Let's talk about drunk people.
215
00:09:31.500 --> 00:09:34.950
When people get drunk,
they behave different.
216
00:09:34.950 --> 00:09:39.000
They sing songs, they
become very demonstrative.
217
00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:40.890
They might dance a dance.
218
00:09:40.890 --> 00:09:44.760
They do things they would
never, ever, ever naturally do
219
00:09:44.760 --> 00:09:47.910
because they're under
the effect of alcohol.
220
00:09:47.910 --> 00:09:50.880
And in fact, sometimes
when people get drunk,
221
00:09:50.880 --> 00:09:54.360
they even see things that
aren't really even there.
222
00:09:55.590 --> 00:09:57.450
Paul says, leave the alcohol alone.
223
00:09:57.450 --> 00:09:59.430
Instead go for the alternative,
224
00:09:59.430 --> 00:10:01.650
which is far better - be filled with the spirit.
225
00:10:01.650 --> 00:10:03.930
And when you're filled with the spirit,
226
00:10:03.930 --> 00:10:05.730
it will also change you,
227
00:10:05.730 --> 00:10:08.100
but it will have a long lasting effect.
228
00:10:08.100 --> 00:10:11.700
You'll be speaking to yourself in psalms and hymns
229
00:10:11.700 --> 00:10:13.680
and spiritual songs,
230
00:10:13.680 --> 00:10:15.690
which means rather than
being in a bad mood
231
00:10:15.690 --> 00:10:16.980
and speaking negative things,
232
00:10:16.980 --> 00:10:19.230
suddenly you're filled
with the spirit of God.
233
00:10:19.230 --> 00:10:20.790
And when you're filled
with the spirit of God,
234
00:10:20.790 --> 00:10:24.390
you come under the inebriating
effect of the Holy Spirit.
235
00:10:24.390 --> 00:10:28.350 line:15%
He changes your attitude,
he changes what you feel.
236
00:10:28.350 --> 00:10:31.080 line:15%
He changes you into a demonstrative person.
237
00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:33.900 line:15%
And sometimes you become opened up to the spiritual realm.
238
00:10:33.900 --> 00:10:35.130 line:15%
You begin to see visions
239
00:10:35.130 --> 00:10:36.660 line:15%
and see things in the spirit
240
00:10:36.660 --> 00:10:38.910 line:15%
that you wouldn't normally be able to see.
241
00:10:38.910 --> 00:10:42.210 line:15%
Everything changes when you
come under the influence
242
00:10:42.210 --> 00:10:43.470 line:15%
of the Holy Spirit.
243
00:10:43.470 --> 00:10:47.430 line:15%
Now, we have seen that there's
a 2nd-work of grace,
244
00:10:47.430 --> 00:10:49.470
which is called the
baptism in the Holy Spirit.
245
00:10:49.470 --> 00:10:53.730
That is one distinct experience just like salvation.
246
00:10:53.730 --> 00:10:56.220
Salvation is one distinct experience.
247
00:10:56.220 --> 00:10:59.160
You just experience it once in life.
248
00:10:59.160 --> 00:11:01.410
And when you receive salvation, the 1st-work
249
00:11:01.410 --> 00:11:03.030
of grace, you receive peace.
250
00:11:03.030 --> 00:11:06.360
But when you receive the subsequent work of grace,
251
00:11:06.360 --> 00:11:09.510
the 2nd one which is called the baptism in the Holy
252
00:11:09.510 --> 00:11:12.180
Spirit, that's just one time in your life
253
00:11:12.180 --> 00:11:14.670
and in that experience, you receive power
254
00:11:14.670 --> 00:11:16.350
and your spirit is loose.
255
00:11:16.350 --> 00:11:17.850
So you have the ability to speak
256
00:11:17.850 --> 00:11:19.830
to God in the spiritual language.
257
00:11:19.830 --> 00:11:21.600
That's one time.
258
00:11:21.600 --> 00:11:25.890
But after that one time
experience, you can be filled
259
00:11:25.890 --> 00:11:28.650
with the spirit again and
again and again and again
260
00:11:28.650 --> 00:11:30.780
and again as time goes by.
261
00:11:30.780 --> 00:11:34.980
And in fact, look again at Ephesians 5:
262
00:11:34.980 --> 00:11:39.360
18 - And be not drunk with wine wherein is excess -
263
00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:41.910
it's not needed. Paul says instead,
264
00:11:41.910 --> 00:11:45.600
this is far better - be filled with the spirit.
265
00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:47.640
And guess what the Greek means?
266
00:11:47.640 --> 00:11:51.150
The Greek literally says - Be being continually filled
267
00:11:51.150 --> 00:11:52.470
with the spirit -
268
00:11:52.470 --> 00:11:55.030
which means - though you received the one initial experience
269
00:11:55.030 --> 00:11:56.980
of the baptism in the Holy Spirit,
270
00:11:56.980 --> 00:12:00.190
after that you can go back
to the gas station again
271
00:12:00.190 --> 00:12:02.470
and again and again and again and again.
272
00:12:02.470 --> 00:12:05.740
You can be filled and filled
and refilled and refilled
273
00:12:05.740 --> 00:12:08.710
and refilled and refilled and refilled.
274
00:12:08.710 --> 00:12:10.960
And I'm gonna show you that to you in the Book of Acts.
275
00:12:10.960 --> 00:12:12.550
So go to Acts 2.
276
00:12:12.550 --> 00:12:15.250
And when we come to Acts 2,
277
00:12:15.250 --> 00:12:17.590
we find the initial baptism in the Holy Spirit,
278
00:12:17.590 --> 00:12:19.870
which occurred on the day of Pentecost.
279
00:12:19.870 --> 00:12:21.700
Go to Acts 2,
280
00:12:21.700 --> 00:12:25.840
and in Acts 2, the Bible tells us - verse 1:
281
00:12:25.840 --> 00:12:28.450
And when the day of Pentecost
was fully come, they were all
282
00:12:28.450 --> 00:12:29.920
with one accord in one place,
283
00:12:29.920 --> 00:12:33.100
and suddenly there came
a sound from heaven as
284
00:12:33.100 --> 00:12:35.050
of a mighty rushing wind,
285
00:12:35.050 --> 00:12:37.300
and it filled all the house where they were sitting
286
00:12:37.300 --> 00:12:40.480
and there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire
287
00:12:40.480 --> 00:12:42.130
that set upon each of them - verse 4 -
288
00:12:42.130 --> 00:12:44.890
And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost
289
00:12:44.890 --> 00:12:47.290
and began to speak with other tongues
290
00:12:47.290 --> 00:12:49.240
as the Spirit gave them utterance.
291
00:12:50.140 --> 00:12:52.000
They received the baptism in the Holy Spirit.
292
00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:55.510
That was the 1st time anybody had ever received the
293
00:12:55.510 --> 00:12:59.140
baptism in the Holy Spirit, which is the 2nd-work
294
00:12:59.140 --> 00:13:02.500
of grace, which is separate from salvation.
295
00:13:02.500 --> 00:13:05.530
It is subsequent to salvation.
296
00:13:05.530 --> 00:13:07.660
They received the power of God.
297
00:13:07.660 --> 00:13:09.100
They begin to speak another tongues.
298
00:13:09.100 --> 00:13:11.410
They begin to pray in a divine language.
299
00:13:11.410 --> 00:13:16.390
That happened in Acts 2. But wait, hold on.
300
00:13:16.390 --> 00:13:18.550
Go over to Acts 4.
301
00:13:18.550 --> 00:13:21.400
And when you come to Acts 4, you find that Peter
302
00:13:21.400 --> 00:13:25.180
and John had been arrested for
demonstrating spiritual power
303
00:13:25.180 --> 00:13:27.400
for healing the sick and for preaching.
304
00:13:27.400 --> 00:13:29.200
They've been dragged before the court
305
00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:30.820
and now they're being tried.
306
00:13:31.750 --> 00:13:33.670
They're put on the witness
stand where they're
307
00:13:33.670 --> 00:13:35.860
to defend themselves and to speak up.
308
00:13:35.860 --> 00:13:39.970
And the Bible tells us in Acts 4:8 -
309
00:13:39.970 --> 00:13:44.470
Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them
310
00:13:44.470 --> 00:13:46.120
and he began to preach.
311
00:13:46.120 --> 00:13:48.520
But when you read this in
the Greek text, it says,
312
00:13:48.520 --> 00:13:52.510
then Peter just then in that moment
313
00:13:52.510 --> 00:13:56.650
being filled with the Holy Ghost. Well, hang on.
314
00:13:57.580 --> 00:14:00.040
He was in the upper room in Acts 2.
315
00:14:00.040 --> 00:14:03.730
He had just been baptized
in the Holy Ghost.
316
00:14:03.730 --> 00:14:06.190
So now when you come to Acts 4:8,
317
00:14:06.190 --> 00:14:07.570
this is another infilling.
318
00:14:07.570 --> 00:14:10.540
He's come back to the gas
station for a new infilling.
319
00:14:10.540 --> 00:14:15.540
The Holy Spirit is refilling him again. My friends,
320
00:14:15.700 --> 00:14:18.430
there's one initial experience, the baptism
321
00:14:18.430 --> 00:14:20.200
and the Holy Spirit, but
there are many, many,
322
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:21.370
many infilling.
323
00:14:21.370 --> 00:14:22.810
And now between chapter 2
324
00:14:22.810 --> 00:14:23.950
and chapter 4, we find
325
00:14:23.950 --> 00:14:27.280
that Peter needs another infilling of the Holy Spirit.
326
00:14:27.280 --> 00:14:31.780
And we're not done yet. Go to the end of Acts 4.
327
00:14:31.780 --> 00:14:34.930
And when you come to the end of Acts 4:31,
328
00:14:34.930 --> 00:14:38.320
you find all the believers,
the very same believers
329
00:14:38.320 --> 00:14:41.260
who had received the baptism
in the Holy Spirit in Acts-
330
00:14:41.260 --> 00:14:44.800
2, are now gathered together in the same upper room
331
00:14:44.800 --> 00:14:46.660
again for more prayer.
332
00:14:46.660 --> 00:14:49.030
And in Acts 4:31, it says -
333
00:14:49.030 --> 00:14:52.400
And when they had prayed, the place was shaken
334
00:14:52.400 --> 00:14:53.810
where they were assembled together
335
00:14:53.810 --> 00:14:56.630
and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost
336
00:14:56.630 --> 00:14:59.030
and they spake the word of God with boldness
337
00:14:59.030 --> 00:15:02.690
or they were refilled with the Holy Ghost.
338
00:15:03.980 --> 00:15:07.940
One infilling, one baptism, but many in-fillings.
339
00:15:09.470 --> 00:15:12.350
I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit
340
00:15:12.350 --> 00:15:17.300
on January the 11th, 1974: changed my life.
341
00:15:17.300 --> 00:15:19.040
I was already saved.
342
00:15:19.040 --> 00:15:21.590
I was saved when I was a very
young man: walked the aisle
343
00:15:21.590 --> 00:15:24.140
of our Baptist church, gave my heart to Jesus.
344
00:15:24.140 --> 00:15:26.270
I was baptized in water that night
345
00:15:26.270 --> 00:15:27.830
and I received the peace of God.
346
00:15:27.830 --> 00:15:32.660
I knew I was going to heaven; but nearly 10 years passed
347
00:15:32.660 --> 00:15:36.350
and then I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
348
00:15:36.350 --> 00:15:38.810
That gave me power with God:
349
00:15:38.810 --> 00:15:40.670
suddenly, I began to pray in tongues.
350
00:15:40.670 --> 00:15:43.190
That was a one time experience.
351
00:15:43.190 --> 00:15:47.090
But my friend, since that time in 1974,
352
00:15:47.090 --> 00:15:50.120
I have been refilled with the Holy Spirit hundreds
353
00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:51.440
and hundreds of times.
354
00:15:51.440 --> 00:15:54.800
And in fact, I begin every
day of my life by praying,
355
00:15:54.800 --> 00:15:58.010
Holy Spirit, refill me today for what I face today.
356
00:15:58.010 --> 00:15:59.570
Give me what I need
357
00:15:59.570 --> 00:16:02.840
and I open myself up for a fresh infilling
358
00:16:02.840 --> 00:16:05.150
of the Holy Spirit.
359
00:16:05.150 --> 00:16:08.180
You can have a new infilling
of the Holy Spirit over
360
00:16:08.180 --> 00:16:10.430
and over and over again.
361
00:16:10.430 --> 00:16:15.080
And now let's go back to Ephesians 5 to see
362
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:17.000
what happens when you're filled and filled
363
00:16:17.000 --> 00:16:20.270
and filled with the Holy Spirit.
364
00:16:20.270 --> 00:16:23.750
And we're told again in verse 18 - Be not drunk
365
00:16:23.750 --> 00:16:25.370
with wine wherein his excess.
366
00:16:25.370 --> 00:16:29.990
Leave it alone. Leave the alcohol alone; instead, be filled
367
00:16:29.990 --> 00:16:31.220
and filled and filled
368
00:16:31.220 --> 00:16:33.980
and continuously filled with the spirit.
369
00:16:33.980 --> 00:16:38.060
And just like alcohol has an inebriating effect, we find
370
00:16:38.060 --> 00:16:40.040
that when you're filled with the Holy Spirit,
371
00:16:40.040 --> 00:16:42.950
it has a spiritually intoxicating effect.
372
00:16:42.950 --> 00:16:44.600
It changes how you feel.
373
00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:46.880
It changes how you behave, it changes
374
00:16:46.880 --> 00:16:48.020
how you relate to others.
375
00:16:48.020 --> 00:16:50.300
It turns you into a super Christian
376
00:16:50.300 --> 00:16:53.480
because now you are under the
control of the Holy Spirit.
377
00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:57.380
And verse 19 says - speaking to yourselves - that is
378
00:16:57.380 --> 00:17:02.060
to one another, in psalms and in hymns
379
00:17:02.060 --> 00:17:05.240
and in spiritual songs, singing,
380
00:17:05.240 --> 00:17:07.490
making melody in your heart to the Lord.
381
00:17:07.490 --> 00:17:10.760
Verse 20: giving thanks always
382
00:17:10.760 --> 00:17:12.590
for all things unto God
383
00:17:12.590 --> 00:17:14.870
and the Father in the name
of our Lord Jesus Christ.
384
00:17:14.870 --> 00:17:17.450
Verse 21: submitting yourselves one
385
00:17:17.450 --> 00:17:20.300
to another in the fear of God.
386
00:17:20.300 --> 00:17:22.340
Let's just talk about
giving thanks in all things.
387
00:17:22.340 --> 00:17:24.500
You know, normally just by yourself,
388
00:17:24.500 --> 00:17:26.720
you probably are not thankful every day.
389
00:17:26.720 --> 00:17:28.160
In fact, you might even grumble
390
00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:31.040
and complain. That's who you are, naturally.
391
00:17:32.150 --> 00:17:34.280
But when you come under the inebriating effect
392
00:17:34.280 --> 00:17:36.440
of the Holy Spirit, when you're filled with the Spirit
393
00:17:36.440 --> 00:17:38.180
and you're controlled by the Holy Spirit,
394
00:17:38.180 --> 00:17:40.040
suddenly he changes your attitude.
395
00:17:40.040 --> 00:17:43.130
You're different. He changes how you see things.
396
00:17:43.130 --> 00:17:46.190
Even when something bad happens, you see the good in it.
397
00:17:46.190 --> 00:17:48.170
You're just filled with thanksgiving
398
00:17:48.170 --> 00:17:49.980
because when the holy is in you
399
00:17:49.980 --> 00:17:53.370
and working in you, it changes your outlook.
400
00:17:53.370 --> 00:17:57.180
You're able to give thanks to God in all things.
401
00:17:57.180 --> 00:18:00.210
And then the next verse is really amazing to me -
402
00:18:00.210 --> 00:18:03.030
Submitting yourselves to one another in the fear of God.
403
00:18:03.030 --> 00:18:06.630
Rather than find it really hard to get along with others,
404
00:18:07.470 --> 00:18:09.360
when you're filled with the Holy Spirit,
405
00:18:09.360 --> 00:18:12.060
suddenly you become compliable.
406
00:18:12.060 --> 00:18:13.830
You become relatable.
407
00:18:13.830 --> 00:18:16.800
You even say - I can submit to that. My friends,
408
00:18:16.800 --> 00:18:17.633
if you found yourself having a hard time
409
00:18:17.633 --> 00:18:19.791
submitting to authority
410
00:18:19.791 --> 00:18:22.230
or getting along in relationships, you need
411
00:18:22.230 --> 00:18:24.210
to be filled with the spirit.
412
00:18:24.210 --> 00:18:29.100
And according to Ephesians 5:18,
413
00:18:29.100 --> 00:18:31.650
you're to be filled and filled and filled
414
00:18:31.650 --> 00:18:35.790
and filled, being continuously
filled with the spirit
415
00:18:35.790 --> 00:18:36.810
of God.
416
00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:41.010
My friends, there's one salvation
417
00:18:41.010 --> 00:18:43.260
and there's one initial
baptism in the Holy Spirit.
418
00:18:43.260 --> 00:18:46.830
But after that, there are many, many, many in fillings.
419
00:18:46.830 --> 00:18:50.460
You can go back for another filling and another and another
420
00:18:50.460 --> 00:18:52.470
and another and another and another.
421
00:18:52.470 --> 00:18:56.880
And when you are continually filled by the Holy Spirit,
422
00:18:56.880 --> 00:19:00.720
it brings you under the spirit's control.
423
00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:03.030
Now, let me show you one more amazing verse.
424
00:19:03.030 --> 00:19:07.080
Go to 1 Corinthians 12. This is just amazing.
425
00:19:07.080 --> 00:19:10.260
And in 1 Corinthians 12, listen to
426
00:19:10.260 --> 00:19:12.960
what it says in verse 13 -
427
00:19:12.960 --> 00:19:16.110
For by one spirit are we all baptized into one body,
428
00:19:16.110 --> 00:19:19.620
whether it be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free.
429
00:19:19.620 --> 00:19:23.730
And we've all been made to drink
430
00:19:23.730 --> 00:19:25.620
of that one spirit.
431
00:19:25.620 --> 00:19:29.310
We've been made to drink of that one spirit. My friends,
432
00:19:29.310 --> 00:19:31.980
you are to learn how to drink of the spirit.
433
00:19:31.980 --> 00:19:34.950
And the word drink here really means to be imbibed.
434
00:19:34.950 --> 00:19:37.470
You're to be imbibed with the spirit of God.
435
00:19:37.470 --> 00:19:39.030
God doesn't just want to touch you,
436
00:19:39.030 --> 00:19:41.760
he wants to fill you. Not just today:
437
00:19:41.760 --> 00:19:43.920
he wants to refill you tomorrow and the next day
438
00:19:43.920 --> 00:19:45.180 line:15%
and the next day and the next day.
439
00:19:45.180 --> 00:19:48.720 line:15%
And according to this verse,
you were fashioned by God
440
00:19:48.720 --> 00:19:51.150 line:15%
to drink of the Spirit.
441
00:19:52.110 --> 00:19:53.760 line:15%
And when you drink of the Spirit
442
00:19:54.720 --> 00:19:57.270 line:15%
and you become refilled
with the Holy Spirit,
443
00:19:57.270 --> 00:20:00.720 line:15%
it puts you under the spirit's control.
444
00:20:00.720 --> 00:20:05.130
Put the alcohol away. It's bad
for you, you don't need it.
445
00:20:05.130 --> 00:20:08.490
Believers do not need to drink.
446
00:20:08.490 --> 00:20:10.530
It's not even natural to drink it,
447
00:20:10.530 --> 00:20:14.250 line:15%
but you were made to drink of the Holy Spirit.
448
00:20:15.330 --> 00:20:16.770 line:15%
And when you open yourself up
449
00:20:16.770 --> 00:20:19.110 line:15%
and say - Holy Spirit, I'm here to drink of you.
450
00:20:19.110 --> 00:20:21.570 line:15%
Fill me Jesus with the Holy Spirit,
451
00:20:21.570 --> 00:20:25.170 line:15%
and he refills you, suddenly
your thinking begins
452
00:20:25.170 --> 00:20:26.490 line:15%
to be changed,
453
00:20:26.490 --> 00:20:28.440 line:15%
you're no longer grumbly and complaining.
454
00:20:28.440 --> 00:20:29.970
Suddenly you become thankful.
455
00:20:29.970 --> 00:20:32.550
You see the best in everything, even what is bad.
456
00:20:32.550 --> 00:20:33.780 line:15%
You can see what is good
457
00:20:33.780 --> 00:20:36.450 line:15%
and you begin to get along in your relationships
458
00:20:36.450 --> 00:20:39.150 line:15%
as you begin to speak among yourselves in psalms and hymns
459
00:20:39.150 --> 00:20:41.550 line:15%
and spiritual songs, giving thanks to God
460
00:20:41.550 --> 00:20:43.500 line:15%
and making melody in your heart.
461
00:20:43.500 --> 00:20:46.440 line:15%
That's a person who's really under the
462
00:20:46.440 --> 00:20:47.800 line:15%
control of Holy Spirit.
463
00:20:47.800 --> 00:20:49.270 line:15%
And that can be you.
464
00:20:49.270 --> 00:20:52.120 line:15%
And if you need a new in-filling of the spirit,
465
00:20:52.120 --> 00:20:55.870 line:15%
it can be yours today just for the asking.
466
00:20:55.870 --> 00:20:57.790
I'll be back in just a moment.
467
00:21:05.770 --> 00:21:08.500 line:15%
How did you receive the baptism in the Holy Spirit?
468
00:21:08.500 --> 00:21:12.400 line:15%
Well, Joel, I was saved in 1963 when I was 5 years old.
469
00:21:12.400 --> 00:21:15.790 line:15%
But when I became 12 years old, which I know was very young,
470
00:21:15.790 --> 00:21:17.620
I began to ask questions.
471
00:21:17.620 --> 00:21:20.140 line:15%
I began to wonder why don't we see miracles
472
00:21:20.140 --> 00:21:23.170 line:15%
and healings in our church like they
473
00:21:23.170 --> 00:21:24.430 line:15%
had in the New Testament?
474
00:21:24.430 --> 00:21:27.010 line:15%
And I became very hungry for God
475
00:21:27.010 --> 00:21:29.380 line:15%
and I began to pursue answers.
476
00:21:29.380 --> 00:21:32.830 line:15%
And in 1974, I was filled
477
00:21:32.830 --> 00:21:35.530 line:15%
with the Holy Spirit on February 11th
478
00:21:35.530 --> 00:21:38.770 line:15%
and it totally transformed my life.
479
00:21:38.770 --> 00:21:40.870 line:15%
I'd been listening to Kenneth Hagin.
480
00:21:40.870 --> 00:21:43.780 line:15%
I'd been following the ministry of Kathryn Kuhlman
481
00:21:43.780 --> 00:21:47.200 line:15%
and I had just tasted enough to know there was more
482
00:21:47.200 --> 00:21:50.200
to the Holy Spirit than I had ever experienced.
483
00:21:50.200 --> 00:21:52.420
And I'll tell you, I would not be sitting here today
484
00:21:52.420 --> 00:21:55.900
speaking to you and in the ministry like we are if I hadn't
485
00:21:55.900 --> 00:21:58.390
received the baptism in the Holy Spirit
486
00:21:58.390 --> 00:22:00.910
because it was a transforming experience
487
00:22:00.910 --> 00:22:03.550
that really empowered my life.
488
00:22:03.550 --> 00:22:05.230
If you do not speak in tongues
489
00:22:05.230 --> 00:22:07.090
or if you do speak in tongues,
490
00:22:07.090 --> 00:22:09.100
this series, Speaking In Tongues: What is it
491
00:22:09.100 --> 00:22:11.740
and is it really for everyone - will be an eyeopener
492
00:22:11.740 --> 00:22:14.080
and a game changer in your life.
493
00:22:14.080 --> 00:22:16.360
Many people are confused about tongues.
494
00:22:16.360 --> 00:22:19.480
So Rick, who was also once
confused about this subject,
495
00:22:19.480 --> 00:22:21.130
takes you into the scriptures to see
496
00:22:21.130 --> 00:22:24.190
what the Bible says about - Speaking in tongues:
497
00:22:24.190 --> 00:22:26.500
The purpose of tongues: Are tongues really
498
00:22:26.500 --> 00:22:29.410 line:15%
for every believer: The value of speaking in tongues -
499
00:22:29.410 --> 00:22:31.120
and so much more.
500
00:22:31.120 --> 00:22:32.440 line:15%
You'll forever thank God
501
00:22:32.440 --> 00:22:34.600 line:15%
for the clarity you receive in this important
502
00:22:34.600 --> 00:22:36.040 line:15%
5-part series.
503
00:22:36.040 --> 00:22:37.360 line:15%

521
00:23:34.240 --> 00:23:35.500
Hey, this is Rick Renner
522
00:23:35.500 --> 00:23:39.070
and I'm standing outside our Ministry Headquarters in
523
00:23:39.070 --> 00:23:40.540
Tulsa, Oklahoma.
524
00:23:40.540 --> 00:23:43.270
Look at it, it's just so wonderful.
525
00:23:43.270 --> 00:23:46.640
And from this location, we are ministering
526
00:23:46.640 --> 00:23:49.790 line:15%
to people all over the world.
527
00:23:49.790 --> 00:23:53.480 line:15%
We have thousands and thousands of phone calls,
528
00:23:53.480 --> 00:23:56.930 line:15%
and I'm not exaggerating, from every single part
529
00:23:56.930 --> 00:23:59.630
of the planet from people that are watching us on all kinds
530
00:23:59.630 --> 00:24:02.930
of social media or television, so many different kinds
531
00:24:02.930 --> 00:24:04.460
of platforms.
532
00:24:04.460 --> 00:24:07.250
And from here, we're sending our programs
533
00:24:07.250 --> 00:24:08.990
to the ends of the earth.
534
00:24:08.990 --> 00:24:10.700
And that's our assignment.
535
00:24:10.700 --> 00:24:14.900 line:15%
Proverbs 10:21 says, The lips of the righteous feed many.
536
00:24:14.900 --> 00:24:17.630 line:15%
That's our job, to feed many the wonderful word of God.
537
00:24:17.630 --> 00:24:20.660
And you're a big part of
that because you're friend
538
00:24:20.660 --> 00:24:22.280
and you are a partner.
539
00:24:22.280 --> 00:24:25.730 line:15%
And right now we have a goal
to pay off this facility.
540
00:24:25.730 --> 00:24:29.390 line:15%
And guess what? We're already at 88% of our goal:
541
00:24:29.390 --> 00:24:30.740 line:15%
88% -
542
00:24:30.740 --> 00:24:33.560 line:15%
we're almost there! Week by week
543
00:24:33.560 --> 00:24:36.530 line:15%
we're just inching further and further toward completion.
544
00:24:36.530 --> 00:24:40.610 line:15%
And when we're finished, it's
gonna release so many finances
545
00:24:40.610 --> 00:24:42.470 line:15%
to help us take the teaching of the Bible
546
00:24:42.470 --> 00:24:44.750 line:15%
to the ends of the earth.
547
00:24:44.750 --> 00:24:45.920 line:15%
And I wanna say "thank you"
548
00:24:45.920 --> 00:24:47.390 line:15%
for being a part of our Giving Team.
549
00:24:47.390 --> 00:24:50.420 line:15%
And if you're not yet a part of our Giving Team,
550
00:24:50.420 --> 00:24:52.520 line:15%
I'm asking you to please join us
551
00:24:52.520 --> 00:24:54.740 line:15%
to help us retire the
dead on this facility
552
00:24:54.740 --> 00:24:56.900 line:15%
so we can obey the great commission
553
00:24:56.900 --> 00:24:58.760 line:15%
and take the teaching of the Bible
554
00:24:58.760 --> 00:25:01.400 line:15%
and the words of Jesus to the ends of the earth.
555
00:25:09.320 --> 00:25:11.690
Well, today I just wrapped up my series,
556
00:25:11.690 --> 00:25:13.370 line:15%
which is called - Speaking in Tongues:
557
00:25:13.370 --> 00:25:17.000 line:15%
What is it and is it really for everyone?
558
00:25:17.000 --> 00:25:18.740 line:15%
I pray this has been a blessing to you,
559
00:25:18.740 --> 00:25:19.760 line:15%
but today's the last day
560
00:25:19.760 --> 00:25:23.270 line:15%
we're offering this on the program with the study guide.
561
00:25:23.270 --> 00:25:25.580 line:15%
And today is also the last day right now,
562
00:25:25.580 --> 00:25:27.770 line:15%
which we're offering you my book called, The Holy Spirit and
563
00:25:27.770 --> 00:25:31.850 line:15%
You Working Together as Heaven's Dynamic Duo.
564
00:25:31.850 --> 00:25:35.180 line:15%
Don't you want to be the Dynamic Duo with the Holy Spirit?
565
00:25:35.180 --> 00:25:37.580 line:15%
This book is designed to
help you walk into that.
566
00:25:37.580 --> 00:25:39.860 line:15%
And we're also offering you my book,
567
00:25:39.860 --> 00:25:43.970 line:15%
which is called, Why We Need The Gifts of the Holy Spirit.
568
00:25:43.970 --> 00:25:46.520 line:15%
I'm sorry, I would even
have to ask that question.
569
00:25:46.520 --> 00:25:48.740 line:15%
But today people are saying,
do we really need them?
570
00:25:48.740 --> 00:25:51.535 line:15%
The answer is yes - we need the gifts of the Holy Spirit
571
00:25:51.535 --> 00:25:54.860 line:15%
and this book will tell you why and how to activate them.
572
00:25:54.860 --> 00:25:56.870 line:15%
And we're also offering you my book,
573
00:25:56.870 --> 00:26:00.290 line:15%
which is called Fallen Angels, Giants, Monsters,
574
00:26:00.290 --> 00:26:01.670 line:15%
and the World Before the Flood.
575
00:26:01.670 --> 00:26:04.730 line:15%
Please order this. You will
read it from cover to cover.
576
00:26:04.730 --> 00:26:08.150 line:15%
It is riveting as we describe
events that took place
577
00:26:08.150 --> 00:26:10.430 line:15%
before the flood and how
they're gonna be replicated
578
00:26:10.430 --> 00:26:12.200 line:15%
again at the end of the age.
579
00:26:12.200 --> 00:26:14.930 line:15%
And we're living at the end
of the age, so we need to know
580
00:26:14.930 --> 00:26:16.460 line:15%
what the Bible says about this.
581
00:26:16.460 --> 00:26:19.760 line:15%
But Father, I thank you in
the wonderful name of Jesus
582
00:26:19.760 --> 00:26:22.520 line:15%
that we have salvation,
we have the baptism
583
00:26:22.520 --> 00:26:24.980 line:15%
of the Holy Spirit and many in-fillings.
584
00:26:24.980 --> 00:26:27.650 line:15%
And Lord, if my friend is
already baptized in the Holy
585
00:26:27.650 --> 00:26:31.370 line:15%
Spirit, I pray to you would just give them a brand new fresh
586
00:26:31.370 --> 00:26:34.880 line:15%
infilling right now in Jesus' name -
587
00:26:34.880 --> 00:26:37.910 line:15%
Amen. I'll see you in the next program.
588
00:26:37.910 --> 00:26:41.000 line:15%
But remember Ecclesiastes 8:4, "Where the word
589
00:26:41.000 --> 00:26:43.680
of a king is there is power."
590
00:26:44.910 --> 00:26:47.160 line:15%
If you've never received
Jesus as your Savior
591
00:26:47.160 --> 00:26:51.570 line:15%
and Lord, now is the time for
you to experience a new life
592
00:26:51.570 --> 00:26:53.730 line:15%
Jesus has to give you.
593
00:26:53.730 --> 00:26:58.350 line:15%
Pray this prayer with me right now - Lord, I repent
594
00:26:58.350 --> 00:27:01.830 line:15%
of my sin and receive you as my Savior
595
00:27:01.830 --> 00:27:04.800 line:15%
and Lord. Wash away my sin
596
00:27:04.800 --> 00:27:07.800 line:15%
and make me completely new.
597
00:27:07.800 --> 00:27:11.670
I thank you that my sin is removed
598
00:27:11.670 --> 00:27:16.670 line:15%
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
599
00:27:17.160 --> 00:27:21.120
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord
600
00:27:21.120 --> 00:27:22.800
for the rest of my life -
601
00:27:23.700 --> 00:27:24.700
Amen.
602
00:27:27.630 --> 00:27:30.450
If you just prayed the prayer of salvation with us,
603
00:27:30.450 --> 00:27:32.400
