Excerpted reading from a sermon by Smith Wigglesworth (1859-1947) from the book: "Ever Increasing Faith"
Scriptures:
"But an hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for such people the Father seeks to be His worshipers. God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth." John 4:23-24
"For this reason I remind you to kindle afresh the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.For God has not given us a spirit of timidity, but of power and love and discipline." 2 Timothy 1:6-7
"Then said I, 'Woe [is] me! for I am undone; because I [am] a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts'." Isaiah 6:5
"Then flew one of the seraphims unto me, having a live coal in his hand, [which] he had taken with the tongs from off the altar:And he laid [it] upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this hath touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged." Isaiah 6:6-7
"But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, [even] to them that believe on his name."
John 1:12
"And declared [to be] the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead."
Romans 1:4
"And Jesus said to him, 'If You can?' All things are possible to him who believes.'"
Mark 9:23
"I can do all things through Him who strengthens me."
Philippians 4:13
"But Peter, along with John, fixed his gaze on him and said, "Look at us!""
Acts 3:4
"But Peter said, 'I do not possess silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene—walk!'"
Acts 3:6
"So isn't all sin equal and same thing goes for like masturbation and sexual things ?
Yes, to sin is to turn away from God. If we fall and repent.. no prob., but if we are habitual and love the sin then God gives us what we want...
The thing people don't realize is that in this world we are exposed to His presence... it surrounds us. We can go further with Him and invite Him within for even more! The rude awakening of hell is that it hurts so much because it's totally devoid of the presence of God. They don't know what they got until it's gone....ouch!
