When the Holy Spirit comes upon Christians, there are a variety of reactions, or manifestations, to His presence. From speaking to tongues, to falling down, deep weeping, trembling, and more. Why do these things happen? Are these biblical experiences? How can we ensure certain manifestations aren't caused by counterfeit spirits? In this teaching, you'll learn about common manifestations of the Spirit and the answer to these questions.

The Baptism in the Spirit is when the Holy Spirit comes upon a Christian in a powerful way, which usually corresponds to receiving your gifts of the Spirit (like speaking in tongues) or a fresh anointing. In this teaching, you'll learn how to receive the Baptism in the Spirit, tips for speaking in tongues for the first time, and learn about the cost of the anointing.

In this in-depth teaching, you'll learn a complete breakdown of every gift of the Spirit--words of wisdom and knowledge, prophecy, tongues, faith, discerning of spirits, gifts of healing, miracles, and more. You'll understand how each gift works, its purpose, and learn about gifts that are innate such as teaching.

When Jesus was baptized in water, the Holy Spirit descended upon Him, which the Bible accredits for His good works (Acts 10:38). The Bible says Jesus will baptize us in the Holy Spirit too (Matt 3:11, Mk 1:8, Lk 3:16, Jn 1:33). In this teaching, you'll learn what the Baptism in the Spirit is, why it is for all Christians, and how to distinguish it from the anointing and power.

Are the gifts of the Spirit for today? Does God still speak, heal, and perform miracles today? In this teaching, you’ll learn the fundamental differences between Cessationism and Continuationism, and explore the biblical evidence supporting modern day spiritual gifts.

In our final Part 4 of this Trinity series, we will discuss the triune nature of God. We'll explore Scriptures that emphasize Monotheism but also indicate plurality within God to understand why we describe God’s nature as triune, being one and three. We'll also see biblical reasons why the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit can't be the same Person to understand why Modalism is wrong. A final summary of everything taught in this series will be provided at the end.

Armstrongites and modern Arians (Unitarians and Jehovah's Witnesses) deny that the Holy Spirit is God, claiming He is just the power of God and an impersonal force. In Part 3, we'll go through the biblical evidence for the Deity of the Holy Spirit.

Modern Arians (Unitarians and Jehovah's Witnesses) deny that Jesus is God according to the Bible, claiming that He is a creature that God created. In Part 2 of this Trinity series, we'll go through a mountain of biblical evidence proving that Jesus is God according to Scripture. It will be the most technical and apologetics-heavy in this series; If you find it too intricate at times, I encourage you to press through it and focus on the main points, and the summary at the end will help with that.

In Part 1 of this series, we won't be getting into Scriptural evidence of the Trinity. Instead, we'll be talking about the Trinity in general—defining the Trinity, Trinity analogies, why God is three, the roles of the Godhead, and why the Trinity is important. Then we'll contrast the Trinity with non-Trinitarian views in a historical context. By the end of this teaching, you will have a good understanding of the Trinity and how it is different from non-Trinitarian beliefs.

The Bible says humans and animals alike have the breath of life. But what is the breath of life, really? Many people have mistaken it for the Holy Spirit, but this teaching will explain why this is in error. This teaching will give you an insightful and accurate understanding of the breath of life, and help you understand what the breath of God is that is also described in Scripture.
