An Excellent Spirit (11) Slides

An excellent spirit discerns its audience and adjusts accordingly - Jesus was the best, for He knew what was in man perfectly, and we do not. Zeal is not impulsive or offensive; zeal is directed passion for what is good, right, and wise for God's glory, without offence to any, and for salvation of some.

Herods of the Bible (#4)

Acts has two Herods - Agrippa I who killed James and wanted to kill Peter. He should not have touched the Lord's anointed, for he was smitten by an angel and died of worms after accepting divine praise. Agrippa II heard Paul's defense and almost converted to Christianity during his fervent testimony.

Five prophecies are fulfilled in Matthew 2. Herod's life also illustrates at least 8 lessons for us to learn.

The gift of the Holy Ghost is given at faith and baptism. Learn His main ministries in your life. He can be increased by greater love and obedience of Christ. But He can be hindered by sin, confidence in self, and your activities and inputs. He can be taken away. Measure and prove Him in you by scripture.

Excellent Spirit (9) Slides

Proud thoughts or words must be crushed and replaced with humility. Rule your spirit by simple decisions to stop bad ideas and start good ones. Paul taught exercise for godliness rather than work your body at the gym. An excellent spirit will sacrifice self, but it will always defend God's word.

To be a great Christian - to have a perfect spirit and life like Daniel - you need the help of the Holy Spirit, whom God sent to us by Jesus Christ for strength.

After some review since it had been two weeks from the last sermon, charity was viewed as a "negative" virtue by forgiving and overlooking the faults of others, rather than doing something positive for them. Hiding secrets to protect reputations was also studied with several other key rules.
