Acts 5:1-3 But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession. And he kept back part of the proceeds, his wife also being aware of it, and brought a certain part and laid it at the apostles' feet. But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back part of the price of the land for yourself?”
2 Timothy 3:13 But evil men and impostors will grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived.
- Peter, through this gift, discerned that Ananias and Sapphira's hearts were filled with Satan's lies. They held back a portion of money which had been pledged to the ministry.
# distinguishing between spirits insures the body of Christ against the infiltration of deceivers.
- Through the distinguishing between spirits, we can know when we are being deceived either by Satan through people or situations, or by people themselves. This revealed knowledge becomes our protection.

Verse of the Day: Isaiah 55:8-11
"For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," declares the Lord. "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways And My thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, And do not return there without watering the earth , And making it bear and sprout, And furnishing seed to the sower and bread to the eater; So will My word be which goes forth from My mouth; It will not return to Me empty, Without accomplishing what I desire, And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it.
- God's ways are beyond our understanding

“for though the twins were not yet born and had not done anything good or bad, so that God's purpose according to His choice would stand, not because of works but because of Him who calls,”

My heart for ministry is to see communities living with a passionate heart for the Gospel, forever transformed and equipped to take care of themselves and assist new disciples to meet their needs and those of others.
I am passionate about equipping believers to do everything as an outcome of their daily conversation with God, and to train others to do the same.
I do this because God told me that He will teach me His word so that I teach it to others.

- The enmity of kings foreordained (Acts 4:25-28)

NO DOUBT!!! And it would probably be a Scriptural 40 pages long!
The question is:
Would organized church (i.e., what Church has become) leaders open the letter?
Or, because of how many “ships have sailed” over the last 1800 years – dogma, fear mongering, customs, practices, traditions of which a significant number were acquired by merger – would Paul’s letter get thrown into the shredder?
—I would like to share how my wife stood up for Marriage at the Great Frederick Fair in Frederick, Md. and how it challenged a violinist to also stand up and share about the Lord Jesus.
At the fair there is a spot which is called the free stage. There was a band. Led by Dennis Lee, who rented it and held outdoor concerts at the fair. Dennis is a Christian as well and openly talks about the Lord as well. The Dennis Lee, when we got there, was interviewing a couple who have been married for over 55 years. My wife is proud that we have been married 55 years. She got his attention and shared it with him. Dennis asked her what held us together, and my wife unashamedly that it was the Lord. She also shared briefly about reading the Bible together and praying together with her husband.
In Dennis Lee’s Band was a violinist, an accomplished violinist—Stephanie Ann Simon. (StephanieAnn.com) She was going to play the National Anthem at the Demolition Derby that night. The Band leader asked her to play it for us while we were there. Before she did, she looked at my wife and told her that what she said about Marriage encouraged to her to share her thoughts too. She proceeded to talk about Jesus, and how Jesus was important to her and her home. Wow!!!!!!!!!! Talk about a move of God’s Holy Spirit. One person spoke up initially—my wife, then what was said encouraged someone else to share—Stephanie Ann Simon.
—She ended her testimony with playing the National Anthem—with a performance that I wish you could have heard. It was so moving that this retired Army officer rendered a military salute as it was played.
Seeing this move of God’s Holy Spirit in sharing a word about Christ—there must have been someone in the crowd who needed to hear that word. May God’s word bring the fruit to which it was sent.
The above has been shared to encourage others to share their testimony.
A few years agok my wife and I were saddened to learn that the VBS director of my church did not encourage asking children to put their faith in Jesus by asking Him into their heart. She did not believe children understood the concept of a Spiritual Heart. She thought most thought of the heart as an organ that pumps blood. The result was, no one was Saved during that VBS. SAD.
On hearing this, my wife and I both wanted to find a way to explain the Spiritual Heart. I looked for a visual way to help a verbal explanation. From my past studies, I decided on using some etymology discipline and my studies of the ancient Hebrew Pictographic letters. I found that the the ancient Hebrew Pictographic letters in this case were very helpful.
The attached document are lessons that may be helpful in explaining the Spiritual Heart, both verbally and visually.
In posting these Lessons, I would apprecaite feed back.
One other consideration--Sunday School attendance is down, and possibly VBS too. Someone could veryfy if that is correct--but I believe it may well be true. We have many of our youth leaving church and Christianity. My heart in sharing this study is to provide a way that can help people and children learn about the Spiritual Heart. Hopefully when they do, they will desire to put their faith in Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
Please, if you take the time to read this, study the lesson provided and let me know some constructive thoughts about how we can encourage leaders to teach about what the Spiritual Heart is.
Thank you very much.
