Oneness

“For I am God, and there is none else.”

Isaiah 45:22 KJV

I am that I am

The lesson walks through John’s gospel and the “I Am” statements of Jesus: “But Jesus had a right to use God’s name because HE WAS GOD!”

“He spoke His name – His rightful name – at a well, and a nameless woman’s life was changed forever; He spoke His name during a storm, and a disciple named Peter was empowered to walk on the raging waves; He spoke His name in a garden at midnight, and an entire battalion of soldiers fell to the ground like so much cordwood.”

From the Oneness lesson.

Holiness

is the point!

“Be ye holy; for I am holy.”

1 Peter 1:16 KJV

“The ‘holiness strand’ is most likely to get pulled from the threefold cord – but a ‘twofold cord’ won’t hold together, you need the third strand!”

“The POINT of the Apostolic lifestyle is to STAND OUT.”

“Being holy does not only mean withdrawing FROM something, it means withdrawing UNTO something.”

From the Holiness lesson (“HOLINESS IS THE POINT!”).
