“Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.” Continuing with key words of winning for God, Bro. Jeff takes tonight’s word “direction” and describes the path of the believer, what it is, what it isn’t.

Tonight, Bro. Jeff takes us on a trip to the graveyard with a list of what the Bible indicates needs to be buried and never dug back up.
If you’ve been made new and alive, why would you want to hang on to the old and dead? Paul tells us that believers still battle with our sinful nature; Bro. Jeff explains how allowing the Holy Spirit to control pleases God and avoids misery and destruction.
Temperance is more than self-control. We’re learning about this fruit of the Spirit, including some key words that provide understanding and instruction on how this fruit grows in the life of a Christian. Previously, Bro. Jeff discussed “danger” and “deprive.” Learn about the third key word “death” and the Bible’s hit list.
Previously, Bro. Jeff detailed five areas of spiritual growth where temperance plays a key role. In this continuation, he guides our thoughts with regard to this fruit of the Spirit with two key words: danger and deprive.
There are two ways of living: in the flesh with the consequences of misery, or in the Spirit where we can enjoy peace. Some Bibles translate the ninth fruit of the Spirit as “self-control,” but Bro. Jeff explains how “temperance” is much more.
Beginning with a definition of meekness, Bro. Jeff explores this next fruit of the Spirit by examining two great Biblical examples. When the Holy Spirit is living and working within us, we will have the meekness of Moses and our Master.
We’ve learned that those who have been born again, who have the Holy Spirit living inside of them, believe the Word of God and trust the will of God. Bro. Jeff continues to help us understand how the Spirit of God produces faith in the regenerated. More examples of Biblical faith challenge us to examine our own lives for evidence of this fruit of the Spirit.
The Christmas Story is one of many examples of faith, faith that conceived, received, believed, and perceived. Do you have the faith that comes from being born again?
When we are filled with the Holy Spirit, we are filled with love, joy, and peace. Tonight, Bro. Jeff continues to show what a spirit-filled Christian looks like as he discusses longsuffering, gentleness, and goodness. Do you have the Holy Spirit living in you?
