Message - Pastor Paul I. Kim1 John: Abiding in Love 05       "4 Marks of the Sonship of Christians"1 John 2:28-3:24

*Listen to the Show notes and podcast transcript with this multi-language player. SUMMARY: When a believer begins to experience the Lord, they often encounter the Holy Spirit, which may manifest through speaking in tongues. As seen in the book of Acts, tongues of fire appeared over the disciples, and they spoke languages they had never learned. As believers continue to seek deeper experiences in God, the fire becomes a purifying force—one that cleanses and refines them. This baptism of fire is God's process of perfecting His people and bringing them into true sonship. SHOW NOTES: When a believer begins to reach into sonship and wants to grow in his spirit, he begins to hear about the fire. The refining fire that the Holy Spirit brings on a believer who is seeking to move beyond the salvation experience at first may seem to be more on a soulish level than in a person's spirit. A relatively new Christian can begin moving in the gifts or speaking in tongues and become excited about areas he is moving in, but it may really be mostly the expression of the soul. John the Baptist emphasized that Jesus was coming to baptize with the Holy Spirit and with fire, which was superior to the baptism that John had ministered. As the Lord begins to put the cross or the fire to a person's life, he feels very uncomfortable and may even try to back out of the pressure on his circumstances. There comes a point in a person's life where he realizes he has an Adamic nature that God is trying to refine out of him. QUOTATIONS: I think one of the things we're looking at in the restoration, and salvation, and then the baptism of the Holy Spirit, is many people went off on a soulish realm to the degree that they thought the soulish realm was the anointing. And it was not. I don't think the understanding was there on what “the fire” meant. I don't think I ever realized we were born with chaff. I always felt like chaff came as a development as we grew up, and that's not true. A part of the old nature was called chaff, and the chaff had to be burned off. It couldn't remain if we were going to come into the presence of a holy God. You have to realize too that God doesn't technically put the fire on us. We are beaten, and that is how you get rid of the chaff. You're beaten, and then it is thrown in the air, and the wind takes it off. But then when it is done, to make sure the chaff is gone, they pick it up and burn...

Summary In this episode, the family share how love is the creative force behind everything God does—His discipline, His calling, and His purpose for our lives. Love is not only the beginning of our relationship with Him but also the power that transforms us into mature sons who walk as Christ walked in the earth. Through real examples, heartfelt discussion, and scriptural insight, they reveal how God's love shapes us, refines us, and flows through us to bring forth His divine nature and unity in the body of Christ. Show Notes • God begins everything in love—His plans, His discipline, and His relationship with us. • Love is the creative power that forms Christ's image within His people. • True humility is believing and walking in what God says about you. • The maturity of sonship comes through love expressed in relationship with one another. • Christ was the firstborn Son of a new race—life-giving spirits who express the Father's nature. • We are called to be living epistles—His Word made flesh in the earth. • Revelation of Christ in us moves us from head knowledge to living experience. • Love, not arrogance, gives expression to God's Word through our lives. Quotes • “Everything God begins, He begins in love.” • “True humility is believing what God says and walking it out.” • “We are not doing things for God—He's doing His works through us.” • “The love of God is the creative force that changes us and creates Christ within.” • “As He is in the earth, so are we.” Scriptural References •

*Listen to the Show notes and podcast transcript with this multi-language player. Summary “Walking Through the Fire Into Sonship” explores the transformative process of spiritual growth through the baptism of fire. The discussion reveals that this fire represents God's refining work, testing believers and burning away everything not aligned with His will. Through trials, correction, and surrender, we move from mere belief into experiential knowledge—true sonship. The speakers emphasize interdependence within the Body of Christ, where brothers and sisters strengthen and refine one another, and where walking with God means complete submission to His Spirit and will. Show Notes • The baptism of fire represents God's refining and testing of true believers. • Sonship comes through endurance, discipline, and surrender to God's will. • Walking with God involves deep correction, not just emotional experience. • True discipleship demands yielding personal ambitions and desires to Christ. • The process of fire burns away self-dependence and produces maturity in the Spirit. • Interdependence within the Body of Christ is vital for growth and perseverance. • Oneness in the family of God is key to fulfilling His divine purpose. Quotes • “You may not define what a baptism of fire is, but you want to walk with God.” – Ron • “Be careful what you ask for; walking with God brings trials and testing.” – Ken • “To be a disciple means to belong—body and soul—to Christ, now and forevermore.” – Debbie • “Our God is a consuming fire; He's going to burn up everything that's not Him.” – Ron • “Submitting to my brothers and sisters is submitting to the Lord—it's one and the same.” – Mike Scriptural References •

Introduction and Background Denis Kozlov, originally from Russia and now an American citizen, shared his testimony of God's calling to plant a church in Florida. He reflected on his friendship with Pastor Matthew and how their connection was rooted in spiritual discernment rather than analysis—trusting the flow of the Holy Spirit. He encouraged believers to live where the Spirit of the Lord flows, not just where logic leads. Main Theme: The Benefits of the Gospel (from Galatians) Kozlov's sermon was based on the Apostle Paul's letter to the Galatians. He emphasized that the gospel of grace and law-based religion are mutually exclusive—they cannot coexist. The Galatians had begun their faith in the freedom of grace but drifted back into legalism. Kozlov highlighted that Christians must resist the temptation to “bargain” or earn favor from God; grace is a pure gift that cannot be mixed with self-righteousness. Four Benefits of the Gospel Kozlov identified four key benefits believers receive through the gospel: Justified We are forgiven and declared righteous before God as though we have never sinned. Justification is not based on works or law-keeping, but solely on faith in Jesus Christ. Christ became a curse for us, taking on our sin so we could live in the freedom of His righteousness. Kozlov used the illustration of his U.S. citizenship—his new passport changed his status permanently; likewise, believers now approach heaven with full acceptance. Adopted We are legally adopted as children of God, no longer slaves or outsiders. God has made us heirs with Christ—fully legitimate and loved. Kozlov reminded the congregation that even when we feel distant, adoption is not based on emotion but on divine truth. He quoted Galatians 4:4–7 to show that God sent His Son to redeem us and make us part of His family. Indwelled The Holy Spirit—the Spirit of Sonship—lives within every believer. This Spirit enables us to cry “Abba, Father,” expressing a deep, trusting intimacy with God. Kozlov shared moving personal stories illustrating how God became a true Father to him after growing up without one. As a child, he was lifted onto a man's lap to “drive” a car—God later used that memory to show how He gives us dignity and guidance. As a young man, when praying about marriage, God taught him responsibility by asking, “You tell me,” shaping him into a mature believer. Empowered The gospel empowers us to walk by the Spirit, not just experience emotional highs in worship. Kozlov compared the Christian walk to an inchworm—we move forward when our head (faith) and our feet (action) stay connected. Many believers receive inspiration but never act on it; faith must lead to daily obedience and small steps of faith. The true fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—comes only through the Spirit's life within us, not through human effort. Closing Message Kozlov concluded with Galatians 2:20: “I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me.” He encouraged believers to: Live rooted in Christ's love and grace. Stop trying to earn God's favor. Recognize that the Christian life is not self-effort but Christ in us, the hope of glory. He summarized the benefits once more: Justified – Heaven is open to you. Adopted – You are a legitimate child of God. Indwelled – You carry the Spirit of God within you. Empowered – You can live and act by the Spirit every day. Pastor Matthew's Closing Exhortation Pastor Matthew concluded by emphasizing the power of overcoming: Denis' life testified that anyone can rise above hardship—fatherlessness, poverty, or pain. Many believers live burdened by past wounds, but Christ calls us to overcome. “Stop feeling sorry for yourself,” he urged. “You can be an overcomer through the Word of God.” The altar was opened for prayer, inviting those ready to leave behind defeat and step into new life through Christ. Core Message The gospel of Jesus Christ is not about striving—it's about receiving. You are justified, adopted, indwelled, and empowered. Live as a child of grace, not a slave of the law. And let your life become a testimony that greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world.

How could you prove the identity of your earthly father? You could produce your birth certificate with his name on it, and a DNA test could reveal you both have the same genetic code within you. When you trust in Jesus Christ for salvation, the Bible objectively declares that God is now your heavenly father and the Holy Spirit dwells within you to manifest his divine life. Do you live with the full assurance that you are a child of God? Hear more on Dr. Barnhouse and the Bible. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/791/29

We are no longer orphans without a home nor bondservants who are obligated to a debt to their master. Instead, if we believe in Jesus, we're children of God, adopted fully into his family.

Malachi Tresler. Matthew 4:1-11. "Christ's self-control confirmed his Sonship and opened the way for ours."

What if your life could run on the quiet power of being wanted? In this message, Brian Durfee walks through Ephesians 1 to show how God reframes our identity from the ground up, moving us from an orphan mindset to the settled confidence of sons and daughters who live “before Him”—face to face with the Father—every hour of the day.We begin by separating the method of sonship from its source. The gospel is the method—Jesus dies and rises so we can receive life. The source is the Father's heart—He chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world. Together we unpack the language and the stakes: “every spiritual blessing” is not distant theology but a present-tense reality flowing from union with the exalted Christ. “Holy” means set apart for God—belonging before behaving. “Blameless” means unblemished integrity—purity within that relationship. And “before Him” paints the intimate picture: the Father lifting His child eye to eye, delighting, steadying, and sending with love.From there, the message turns to ordinary life. Sonship changes Monday morning more than it changes your someday; it resets the first truth about you before email, expectations, and memory of mistakes. When we stumble, we run to the Father, not from Him, trusting the grace that forgives and the presence that restores. We learn to carry the family name into work, parenting, and friendships so others catch a glimpse of the Father's patience, courage, and mercy through us. And we remember that this isn't a solo journey—we live as brothers and sisters in His kingdom now, practicing nearness to God in the middle of busy schedules and real struggles.For anyone weary of earning their place or bracing for rejection, this message is an invitation to live from a deeper center: chosen, loved, holy, blameless, and always before His face.We are Trinity Community Church in Knoxville, Tennessee.Subscribe to our Podcast & YouTube channel to find past sermons, classes, interviews, and more!Find us on Facebook & Instagram

In this episode we meet a young ex-Muslim called Shahriq Khan, who grew up in New York to immigrant parents from Pakistan and India.  Shahriq in many ways embodied the American dream, the son of immigrants who achieved great success in education and business. But then he began to question the faith he had been raised in. And his searching led him to Jesus. His story has not been without many trials, including rejection, criticism and pressure from his family and friends to come back to Islam, and a season of partying that led to a period of deep depression and hopelessness. But the Lord's kindness and grace has drawn him back into great community, where Shahriq testifies to a journey of healing and deliverance, growth and discipleship – and a huge heart to bring the gospel to Muslims and to teach others how to do so. Do check out his Instagram page @realshahriqkhan Or you can find him on Youtube @RealShahriqKhanAnd for training resources and to join the underground community, visit this webpage.Support the show_________________________________________________________________________________Do get in touch if you have any questions for Matt or for any of his guests.matt@frontiers.org.ukYou can find out more about us by visiting www.frontiers.org.ukOr, if you're outside the UK, visit www.frontiers.org (then select from one of our national offices).

Send us a textFrom Compromise to Wholeness — The Gift of TimeWhat if the split you feel isn't between two real forces, but between reality and a clever nothing?In this talk, we dive into A Course in Miracles to show how “nothing and everything” cannot coexist—and why choosing love over fear is less a ritual than a present-moment decision that collapses delay.Instead of fixing yourself, we explore how to transfer faith from ego stories to the Holy Spirit's reinterpretation, letting error be seen without judgment and corrected on the spot. We walk through the right use of denial—feeling what arises while refusing to grant it reality—and how pseudo-solutions like analysis, control, and specialness keep the loop alive.From there, we reframe time as a compassionate device for ending compromise with illusion, unpacking a fresh reading of John 3:16: not sacrifice, but a gift—this world given as a classroom where mercy replaces guilt. The result is a grounded practice for accepting Atonement without delay: pause, notice the sensation, offer the thought, and allow correction to flow.We also open the lens on the Sonship—the one shared Self beyond multiplicity. Inclusion heals perception; exclusion fractures it. Each encounter becomes communion when we remember there's only one of us to forgive and to love.If you're ready to stop negotiating with fear, to let time serve awakening, and to feel the quiet strength of choosing everything, this conversation offers clear steps and a lived sense of peace.✨ If this resonated, subscribe, share with a friend who's seeking real peace, and leave a review to help others find the show.

If you grew up with an abusive or emotionally distant father, your relationship may now be characterized by estrangement, alienation, or even hostility. Countless people live their lives apart from God, hostile toward Him, and alienated from His fellowship. But the Bible declares that sinful humans can become true sons and daughters of God through new birth by the Holy Spirit. Do you trust in Jesus Christ and live as God's true child?

Daily Dose of Hope October 10, 2025   Scripture – John 5   Prayer: Holy God, How amazing it is that we can come before you today.  You are God of all things, Lord of everything, and yet you care about each of us.  We give you glory and praise.  We thank you most of all for Jesus, who made it possible for us to walk hand in hand with a holy God.  Help us see today's Scripture through fresh eyes.  Keep teaching us, Lord.  Continue to reveal yourself to us.  We are open and grateful.  In Your Name, Amen.   Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional and podcast that complements the daily Bible reading plan at New Hope Church in Brandon, Florida.  As most of you know, we are currently doing a deep dive into the Gospels and Acts.  Today, we dive into John 5.   The chapter starts with a narrative about the disabled man who had not been able to walk for thirty-eight years.  There are a couple reflections I had from the text.  You may have noticed them too.   First, when Jesus asked the man if he wanted to get well, the man did not say yes.  Instead, he blamed his circumstances for why he was disabled.  “Well, no one will help me into the waters and then people go ahead of me.”  He takes no responsibility, and he puts all his trust in this mystical pool.  How many times have we done the same thing?  Maybe we haven't put trust in a pool, but we have wanted to blame others or blame the whole world for our deep-rooted problems.   Second, when the religious leaders find out Jesus healed on the Sabbath, they become angered.  They say nothing about how this man experienced healing after thirty-eight years of disability.  How crazy is it that all they care about are the rules?  They have no concern for individual people.    Jesus turned social and religious norms upside down.  He was less concerned with convention and more concerned about the souls of people.  The Pharisees totally were missing the point.  How often do we miss the point?    Healing on the Sabbath only makes Jesus more of a target for the religious establishment.  This begins a discourse of Jesus' authority.  One of the more important questions we have here is – what is the relationship between the authority of the Father the authority of the Son?  Jesus says that the son can do nothing on his own accord, but only what he sees the Father doing.  This is where we have to be careful in our interpretation.    What can we learn from these verses? The Son doesn't operate independently of the Father. The Son is in constant touch with the Father. The Son does what he discerns the Father is doing. The Father loves the Son and shows him everything he is doing.   The key to Jesus' Sonship is constant communication with and obedience to the Father. Thus, he is the perfect expression of the Father here on earth. In chapter 1 we read, "No one has ever seen God, but God the One and Only, who is at the Father's side, has made him known." (1:18)   The chapter ends with testimonies about Jesus.  The reality is that anyone could come and make claims about divinity and sonship.  Jesus knew this.  He says if it were just his personal testimony, then basically no one should believe what he has to say.  But Jesus says there are other witnesses that can attest to who he is.  First, there is God the Father.  He comes in his Father's name.  Then, there is John the Baptist.  Next, there are many signs and wonders which attest to his divinity. There is plenty of testimony that Jesus is who he said he is.  Basically, everything in the Scriptures points to Jesus.  John says that if we fail to recognize that, then his Word doesn't dwell in us.   Blessings, Pastor Vicki

Ep 45 - Series: Identity Unlocked - Pt 1About This Series: This is Part 1 of our "Identity Unlocked" series. Over the next few episodes, we'll dive deep into what sonship really means, how to walk in it daily, and how to recognize when you're slipping back into orphan or slave thinking.About This Episode: Most Christians know the phrase "identity in Christ," but few actually walk in it. If you've been stuck in the same patterns of behavior despite trying everything to change, the problem isn't your effort—it's your identity.In this episode, we expose the two false identities that war against believers: the orphan mindset and the slave mindset. Using the parable of the prodigal son in Luke 15, we reveal how these hidden operating systems drive your decisions, sabotage your blessings, and keep you from living in the freedom Christ died to give you.You'll discover: ✓ Why behavior modification never works without identity transformation ✓ The signs you're living with an orphan or slave mindset ✓ How these false identities make you forfeit your God-given inheritance ✓ What it truly means to be a son or daughter of God ✓ How to break free from religious performance and strivingThis isn't about trying harder—it's about believing who God says you are.Turn this episode into real change: The Kingdom Shift newsletter gives you one specific way to apply this week's Kingdom truth.

This message unpacks the heart of evangelism rooted in the Father's love, where the ministry of reconciliation isn't a duty but an overflow of knowing we've already been reconciled to Him. We'll look at how Jesus modeled serving from Sonship in John 13 and how, from that same place of identity and rest, we can carry God's heart to the world.

Crystal Rivers | Word for Now | Oct 6, 2025 Life's true essence isn't found in possessions but in knowing Christ intimately and becoming like Him. You are already God's child—this discussion is settled. You carry divine DNA, and your journey is allowing these spiritual genes to manifest until it becomes undeniable that you belong to God. You carry an unusual enrichment of the Holy Spirit—Scripture calls this the "earnest" or "first fruits." There's a literal saturation of God's presence concentrated in you. Creation itself groans for your manifestation, and these groanings are captured in the seven feasts of Israel—actual times when the Holy Spirit's voice becomes more tangible in creation. When cosmic signs appear during these appointed times, discern what God is saying. Jesus submitted to this protocol: He died during Passover, rose during First Fruits, and the Spirit came on Pentecost. Develop spiritual intelligence. Numbers in Scripture—Job's seven sons and three daughters, his 7,000 sheep and 3,000 camels, Daniel's twenty-one day fast—reveal angelic operations and wisdom patterns that godly people trapped on earth through their walk with God. Multiple spiritual forces broadcast to you simultaneously, like earth's atmosphere: 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen. Each gas represents different spirits trying to communicate. Nitrogen isn't giving you life—oxygen is. Consecration increases the "oxygen" in your spiritual atmosphere, amplifying God's voice until He becomes the dominant influence. Apply the greenhouse effect: specific atmospheric conditions allow specific seeds to grow. Expose yourself to something's atmosphere through consecration, and that thing's wisdom blossoms in your life. Joshua was told to meditate on God's Word day and night so his way would be prosperous. Increase God's presence in your life and experience prosperity. Understand Kronos versus Kairos. Kronos is ordinary time under wickedness's influence—"the days are evil." But when filled with the Spirit, you break into Kairos—time under God's influence where His purposes manifest. This is redeeming time. Spiritual sight operates differently than natural sight. In the spiritual realm, you see by the light within you. Satan's light makes his deceptions appear normal. Under his light, Peter tried preventing Jesus from the cross. But under God's light, Jesus saw the joy set before Him. Once you can see something spiritually, it becomes tangible—it's just a matter of prolonged engagement. The ten plagues of Egypt weren't God directly killing but His light progressively infiltrating Egypt, revealing the pain demonic powers were already inflicting. Each plague represented increasing measures of God's presence. At the third plague, magicians encountered "the finger of God"—a threshold where they could no longer replicate God's presence. Consecration does this in your life: increases God's presence until darkness's tricks stop working. This same finger that wrote the Ten Commandments now writes on your heart through communion with God. Where the Spirit is Lord—the only one speaking—there is liberty. When you create that atmosphere, plagues break out: the death of this age's gods in your life. Things gripping your soul lose their hold. Strongholds are pulled down. Paul said if you live according to the flesh, you'll discover you're not truly alive. But if through the Spirit you mortify the deeds of the body, you will live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. Sonship is about God's glory influencing, ruling over, saturating you until your genetic correspondence with God manifests visibly. You're designed to be a true human being: a priest and king after the order of Melchizedek. Take advantage of strategic times like the Feast of Tabernacles—times when creation's groaning intensifies and the Holy Spirit's voice becomes more accessible. Consecrate yourself during these seasons through worship, meditation on God's Word, and fasting. Remember: repentance isn't saying "I'm sorry"—it's changing your mind. Transformation isn't trying harder; it's exposure to the right light. In God's light, Satan appears undesirable. In God's light, you see yourself as you truly are in Christ. The closer you draw to God, the more your sonship manifests, the less influence this age has over you, and the more you realize you're born of God, carrying His DNA, destined for glory. This is your inheritance. Walk in it. Zoom every weekday : http://www.caveadullam.org/zoom

He describes how he moved from religious striving to experiencing the freedom of Sonship.

Paul reminds us that we are no longer bound by the law, but adopted as sons and daughters of God. In Christ, we move from slavery to sonship, from duty to delight, and from emptiness to inheritance.

A deep dive into his upbringing in Los Angeles where he and his brother sought out and became part of the burgeoning experimental music scene learning from their elders which included Bobby Bradford, Julius Hemphill, Horace Tapscott, Sonship and Vinnie Golia.We explored the daunting landscape of modern-day touring, the people along the way who helped elevate his own original music and his concept of success in this life.

In The Secret of Sonship, Stephan Botha reveals the hidden keys to walking in true power, authority, and maturity as a child of God. Through biblical examples from Abraham, Elijah, Paul, and Timothy, this message unpacks how submission, servanthood, and dying to self unlock the flow of anointing and inheritance. With bold truth, prophetic insight, and practical wisdom, Stephan challenges believers to move from being mere Christians to true sons who carry mantles, authority, and revival power.

In love he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved. I. God the Father's loving predestination of his people. II. God the Father's loving adoption of his people. III. God the Father's loving grace to his people. 

Those that respond to the call of God are led by His spirit and are born again as His adopted sons and daughters. All power is given to His children in a manner that is orderly and under control. If you are willing to be guided, the Lord will pick you up and help you on your way.  VF-2099 Romans 8:14 Watch, Listen and Learn 24x7 at PastorMelissaScott.com Pastor Melissa Scott teaches from Faith Center in Glendale.

#42 – Series: Making The Kingdom Shift – pt.3Are you caught in a Christian trap that's wasting your life without you knowing it?The Parable of the Prodigal Son reveals more than one lost son.

In this episode, Nancy unpacks the vital difference between being an heir and being a steward. Every son is an heir, but not every heir matures into stewardship. True sons take responsibility, carrying the weight of the Father's house not with flash or recognition, but with everyday faithfulness. Stewardship often looks ordinary—showing up, obeying when it's inconvenient, serving without applause, and enduring without self-pity. This is where sons are proven, and where God entrusts more. Discover why stewardship is not about earning promotion, but stepping into what the Father has already written for your life. Learn how hidden faithfulness shapes you into a trustworthy son, able to carry His authority and responsibility. Sonship is not just a privilege—it's a calling to steward what is in your hand until the Father releases more. Thanks for Listening!
