Where would your life be right now without Jesus? The fact is, you would be wallowing in sin, and you would be faced with a debt you could never pay.

Do we really understand all that God’s grace has brought to us? It truly is amazing grace!

The Holy Spirit is the least understood and least taught person of the Trinity. Scripture demonstrates the person of the Holy Spirit as evident by having mind, will and emotions. The Holy Spirit searches the depths of God, knows the mind of God and the will of God and communicates spiritual thoughts, spiritual knowledge, spiritual wisdom and the spiritual will of God to the mind of a born again believer of Jesus Christ. Scripture calls upon believers to have fellowship with the Holy Spirit.

Is He Enough?

Date: May 8, 2022 | Speaker:

God created a world to be enjoyed and filled by all creation. He fellowshipped with Adam and Eve every day, delighting most in their love for and dependence upon Him. However, Satan twisted the words and commands of God, and in so doing, deceived Adam and Eve into believing what God had provided, just wasn’t enough. As we look through key figures in God’s Word, we can see how the curse of sin is alive and well, wreaking havoc in the lives of God’s people; however, there are times the outcome of this great deception served as an agent of change for the unsuspecting… leading them to turn from their active rebellion against God and acknowledge, “He is Enough”.
