1 Corinthians 12:27-28 (NKJV Strong’s Bible)Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually. And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues.
Things to beware of
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 (NKJV Strong’s Bible)Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.
The Gospel Is About Power, Not Just Words
And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.
–1 Corinthians 2:4-5 (NKJV Strong’s Bible)
God Has Revealed By His Holy Spirit
which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
But as it is written:“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”
But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
–1 Corinthians 2:8-10 (NKJV Strong’s Bible)
Many people quote this scripture and say see, we don’t know. I wish they would just keep reading to verse 10. God reveals by His Holy Spirit. Are you a Spirit Baptized, Spirit led believer? Then it can be revealed to you as well.
Jesus Walked Here
Believers must eliminate the word “impossible” from our vocabulary. The Lord Jesus did it to show us what the Father had planned for us. He left us saying,
“ Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.
(John 14:12 NKJV)
Do you believe? Then, you will receive, and achieve great things for the Eternal Kingdom.

A typical middle eastern meal
Yaffa- the worlds oldest operating port
Welcome to Tel Aviv
After living in Tokyo for so long, fascinating to see another old city on the other side of the world. Not as old as Jerusalem or even Yaffa the port just South, but interesting mix. Welcome to the Middle East!
Live in the newness of life
Romans 7:5-6 (NKJV)For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were aroused by the law were at work in our members to bear fruit to death. But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.
