The Holy Spirit »
The personal relationship a believer has with the Holy Spirit is essential for a victorious Christian life. In the dispensation of grace, the Holy Spirit is working in and through born-again believers. The doctrine of the person of the Holy Spirit is essential to believers and any deviation from the Biblical Christian viewpoint could be extremely dangerous. You can learn more about this in this life-enriching course.

-
Operating in the Spiritual Realm »
God desires to raise up the Body of Christ as His glorious Church without spot or wrinkle. This Church should command the respect of the world because of the miraculous power of God manifesting with signs and wonders. Only if the Church walks in the Spirit and is being led by the Spirit it will show forth the glory of God..
|
-
The Gifts of the Holy Spirit »
The supernatural is one of the greatest weapons that the Church has today. However, the devil wants the Church to back off from this realm so that he could have control. Whatever God does, the devil counterfeits. Satan wants to place in the Church false prophets and those operating in the soulish realm, but we must contend for the true supernatural. We must strive to keep our hearts pure and open before the Lord. At the same time we need to realise that these gifts are "charismata" - gifts of grace!
|
-
The Fruit of the Spirit »
Contrary to the thinking of today in many churches, Jesus did not say, "You will know them by their miracles." Neither did He say, "You will know them by the number of verses they can quote." He did not even say, "You will know them by how loudly they speak in tongues." He did however say in Matthew 7:16, "You will know them by their fruit." This is what is important!
|
-
The Blood Covenant »
This is one of the fundamental teachings in the entire study programme. The Blood Covenant, expressed in the New Testament in the Lord's Table, is based upon the oldest covenant known to humankind. From the beginning of time even to this day in Africa, India, China, Borneo and many other countries of the world, people are still practising blood covenants. The vilest enemies become trusted friends as covenant is cut. It is so sacred that children of the next generations revere it and keep it. God's covenant with us is a perpetual covenant, indissoluble - a covenant that cannot be annulled.
|
-

|
-
Kingdom Principles »
All Christians need a cohesive plan for their life, or there will be no direction or motivation.

This study will help the student to develop mountain-moving faith.

The Life and Character of Jesus »
Without the nature of Christ and His character being manifested in the Body of Christ, there are serious dangers of abuse of authority, of fanaticism, trickery and self-destruction. We should strive to follow Christ's example in everything and allow His character to be imprinted on us. The Church needs the character of Christ to be manifest in every member now more than ever!

As we read Paul's instructions in 1 and 2 Timothy, we can feel his heart reaching out to the believers at Ephesus, where he had put in so much effort. Paul wanted the congregation to flourish, so he wrote these two letters, which are among the earliest manuscripts we have for church organisation. Where 1 Timothy emphasises the life of the congregation, 2 Timothy dwells on the life of the pastor. If we add the letter of Titus, we have a handbook for most ministerial matters.
