Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are spiritual gifts? Storms has spent several decades teaching on the topic of the spiritual gifts and equipping believers in the faithful practice of God's gifts. Yet there remains a great deal of confusion about the nature of the gifts and how they best function in the body of Christ. In this comprehensive guide to the spiritual gifts, Storms addresses the many bizarre and misleading interpretations while confronting the tendency to downplay the urgency of spiritual gifts for Christian living and ministry. He explains how spiritual gifts--both the more miraculous and the everyday--are given to build up the body of Christ. God has graciously provided these "manifestations of the Spirit" so that believers might encourage, edify, strengthen, instruct, and console one another, all with a view to an ever-increasing, incremental transformation into the image of Jesus Christ. Throughout this guide, Sam Storms unpacks the glorious truth that there is a supernatural and divine energy or power that fills and indwells the body and soul of every Christian believer. Understanding Spiritual Gifts is useful as a reference to address common questions about the gifts, but it also serves as a training manual for using and exercising the gifts in ministry. It is perfect for any individual or group who wants to grow in their understanding of spiritual gifts for today.

Download or read book Supernatural written by Heiser, Michael S. and published by Lexham Press. This book was released on 2015-11-10 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Michael S. Heiser presents fifteen years of research on what the Bible really says about the unseen world of the supernatural, unfiltered by tradition or by theological presuppositions. Who were the sons of God? Who were the Nephilim? Where do angels fit into the supernatural hierarchy? What relation does Jesus bear to the rest of the supernatural world? Heiser tackles these questions and many more as he shines a light on the ancient context of Scripture. After reading this book, you may never read your Bible the same way again. In Supernatural, Heiser takes the core message from his recent best-seller, The Unseen Realm, and presents it for the person in the pew. He offers the same approach to reading and understanding Scripture, but without all the extra footnotes and supporting information needed for the scholarly treatment. “We can’t believe what we don’t understand. In Supernatural, Michael Heiser helps us to do both. It may open your eyes to the scripture in a new way.” —John Ortberg, author of If You Want to Walk on Water, You’ve Got to Get Out of the Boat

Book excerpt: In The Unseen Realm, Dr. Michael Heiser examines the ancient context of Scripture, explaining how its supernatural worldview can help us grow in our understanding of God. He illuminates intriguing and amazing passages of the Bible that have been hiding in plain sight. You'll find yourself engaged in an enthusiastic pursuit of the truth, resulting in a new appreciation for God's Word. Why wasn't Eve surprised when the serpent spoke to her? How did descendants of the Nephilim survive the flood? Why did Jacob fuse Yahweh and his Angel together in his prayer? Who are the assembly of divine beings that God presides over? In what way do those beings participate in God's decisions? Why do Peter and Jude promote belief in imprisoned spirits? Why does Paul describe evil spirits in terms of geographical rulership? Who are the "glorious ones" that even angels dare not rebuke? After reading this book, you may never read your Bible the same way again. Endorsements "There is a world referred to in the Scripture that is quite unseen, but also quite present and active. Michael Heiser's The Unseen Realm seeks to unmask this world. Heiser shows how important it is to understand this world and appreciate how its contribution helps to make sense of Scripture. The book is clear and well done, treating many ideas and themes that often go unseen themselves. With this book, such themes will no longer be neglected, so read it and discover a new realm for reflection about what Scripture teaches." --Darrell L. Bock, Executive Director for Cultural Engagement, Senior Research Professor of New Testament Studies, Howard G. Hendricks Center for Christian Leadership and Cultural Engagement "'How was it possible that I had never seen that before?' Dr. Heiser's survey of the complex reality of the supernatural world as the Scriptures portray it covers a subject that is strangely sidestepped. No one is going to agree with everything in his book, but the subject deserves careful study, and so does this book." --John Goldingay, David Allan Hubbard Professor of Old Testament, School of Theology, Fuller Theological Seminary "This is a 'big' book in the best sense of the term. It is big in its scope and in its depth of analysis. Michael Heiser is a scholar who knows Scripture intimately in its ancient cultural context. All--scholars, clergy, and laypeople--who read this profound and accessible book will grow in their understanding of both the Old and New Testaments, particularly as their eyes are opened to the Bible's 'unseen world.'" --Tremper Longman III, Robert H. Gundry Professor of Biblical Studies, Westmont College

Download or read book Understanding the Supernatural written by James Ejeh and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-31 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everything around us is clear witness to the fact that there is a powerful God behind the entirety of creation. Our Father is not a weak, impotent, empty and powerless God. He is the source, centre and author of power (Ps. 62:11). If power belongs to God, then it is very absurd that His church is so feeble in our time. The church that started in power cannot survive without it. The power bankruptcy massively evident in the body of Christ today is not only retarding the advancement of our kingdom but making a mockery of the cross. A lot of the victims of hell are forced to look elsewhere for help since the accredited channels of hope are unable to deliver Calvary dividends to ailing humanity.If satanic counterfeits must not overshadow the original works of the Holy Ghost, bearers of genuine fire must arise now. God is willing and able to restore apostolic mantle back to the church, if men who angry at their emptiness will rise to pay the price for unction. Being angry at emptiness and hungry for fullness are the two catalysts of virtue release. God's servant James Ejeh is a man sold out to God and passionate about the restoration of the church to her position of purity, purpose and power. God has used him to meticulously and elaborately discuss this critical and timely matter, in this spirit motivated and monitored book.He did not write as one exempted from this dearth but in a graphic manner showed us how he personally travailed and of course still travails, to lay hold on the full grace of God. This is a book that if read well will surely keep you on your knees until you are engulfed in fire from above. It will help you to groan for grace.This is one book that will not show your need alone but dwelt greatly on what you can do to attain and retain the supernatural. I encourage all Christian leaders in particular and Christians in general to read this book. However, for maximum impact, it must be read prayerfully.Understanding the supernatural is a valuable resource material for churches, Bible Colleges and those committed to disciple making.It is our prayer that this book will make you restless until you are soaked in the spirit. May it positively adjust your speed in your pursuit of God. May it make you hate powerlessness to the point that you are ready to get the mantle at whatever cost.I wish you an unforgettable encounter with the spirit and the Word, as you read this book.
