Life in the modern American church

  • What is intimacy?
  • So, let’s use the following for our definition:
  • One of Jesus’ most frightening warnings
  • How straight and narrow?
  • The will of the Father
  • Then He goes after powerful ministers
  • Gifts of the Spirit
  • Ministry gifts are peripheral—knowing is what matters
  • The gifts in lawlessness?
  • Missing the mark

Knowing God is required of us

  • Hearing from God
  • Knowing scripture
  • Prayer is the answer?
  • Here’s some quotes to help us:
  • Religion is anathema to this
  • Finding a church home
  • Developing skill in prayer

Hearing God

  • Developing dialog
  • The practice of prayer
  • Discerning your thoughts
  • Evil thoughts
  • Your own thoughts are as dangerous as the enemy’s words
  • Inadequate knowledge is the norm
  • Examine your thoughts
  • Thoughts and impressions from God
  • Thoughts and feelings from the enemy
  • Counterfeits to watch for
  • Attacks from people
  • Thoughts from your flesh
  • Testing the spirits
  • Letting the Holy Spirit control your memory
  • Remember the sound & feel of the voices
  • Don’t become attached to methods

We can only know God if Jesus chooses to reveal Him

  • For many of the best things you must ask
  • Growth without “resources”
  • Baptism of the Holy Spirit
  • Entering oneness with the Father
  • Don’t hesitate to pray now
  • The thoughts & intentions of the heart
  • The Word of God is not the Bible

Know as we are known

  • Made in the image of God
  • It’s a process of growth
  • We begin to see what made in His image means
  • This is eternal life: to know you

Knowing Jesus as His Bride

  • Marriage gives us a glimpse of this
  • Jesus is the perfect husband
  • We are his bride
  • The role of the wife
  • Let’s define submit:

Giving up our rights

  • Feelings
  • Thoughts
  • Give it up!
  • Laying down our lives
  • I am dead & you should be
  • Martin Luther
  • Making your baptism real
  • Let’s not be religious
  • Still doing drugs after rebirth?
  • How our death helps us know the Lord
  • Giving permission
  • Our old minds cannot hear him
  • We must take the mind to the cross—constantly
  • Our lives in Christ are not to be spent on frivolity
  • We only come to know who we are by knowing Him

We can know Him!
