LOVING TO FAST

“When the days come that the Groom is removed from their midst, they will surely fast in those days.” —Luke 5:35 Jesus said that we, His disciples, will surely fast. However, our fasting as Jesus’ followers differs from Old Testament fasting. New Testament fasting is so powerful that it is compatible only with a New Testament lifestyle (Lk 5:37). Without the new wineskin of a new lifestyle to contain the new wine of our new fasting, our fasting will not be constructive but destructive. Therefore, to fast as the Lord calls us, we must first be letting the Spirit create...

HEALING THE MIND

Jesus “stood over her and addressed Himself to the fever, and it left her. She got up immediately and waited on them.” —Luke 4:39 Jesus heals the sick not only from cancer, heart disease, AIDS, schizophrenia, arthritis, etc., but He also heals for evangelization and ministry.

Yet we can “flee from the wrath to come” (Mt 3:7) by being baptized into Jesus’ justifying death and by living our Baptisms. Thus, we accept that Jesus on Calvary took our punishment on Himself. “Now that we have been justified by His blood, it is all the more certain that we shall...

A BIG TO-DO

“Act on this word. If all you do is listen to it, you are deceiving yourselves.” –James 1:22 Some of you have been reading this booklet, One Bread, One Body, for years. You have read hundreds and thousands of Scripture passages. You are greatly blessed. The Lord is not expecting us to remember all these Bible verses or to know how to interpret them all. He does expect us to live them all by His grace. Knowing God’s Word demands doing His Word. On Judgment Day, the Lord will not ask us what we know of His Word, but how...
