James 1:14-15 “But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. (15) Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.” We have seen thus far that it is entirely possible for believers to turn away from following Christ and go back into the world. The question is then asked, how is it possible that Christians can reach the point where they wilfully deny Jesus as their Lord and Saviour? A

2 Peter 2:18-22 “For when they speak great swelling words of emptiness, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through lewdness, the ones who have actually escaped from those who live in error. … (20) For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overcome, the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. (21) For it would have been better for them not to h

1 John 5:16-17 “If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not to death, he will ask, and He will give him life for those who commit sin not to death. There is sin to death. I do not say that he should pray about that. (17) All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not to death.” In the previous section we have seen that there is no sin that believers can commit that is fatal to the born-again human spirit, except one. We also saw in an earlier section that, because of

1 John 5:16-17 “If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin not to death, he will ask, and He will give him life for those who commit sin not to death. There is sin to death. I do not say that he should pray about that. (17) All unrighteousness is sin, and there is sin not to death.” In the above quoted passage of scripture the apostle John teaches us about two distinct types of sin, i.e. a sin to death and a sin not to death. The death that John speaks about in this passage

Romans 8:38-39 “For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, (39) nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” There is an erroneous teaching in some parts of the church that has caused many believers to stumble. The false teaching that I am referring to, is that once someone is saved they can never

2 Corinthians 12:12 “Truly the signs of an apostle were accomplished among you with all perseverance, in signs and wonders and mighty deeds.” The most common working of miracles in the church age, are getting people born-again, casting out demons and baptising the saints with the Holy Spirit. The reason that these miracles are the most common is because they have the greatest impact on the church. And so although those who are anointed with this gift are also used by the Lo

Acts 8:5-12 “Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria and preached Christ to them. (6) And the multitudes with one accord heeded the things spoken by Philip, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. … (12) But when they believed Philip as he preached the things concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, both men and women were baptized.” The first example of the working of miracles which we will look at in this section is the miracle of multitud

1 Corinthians 12:8-10 “for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, (9) to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, (10) to another the working of miracles.” Just as with the gifts of healings, there are those who have received the gift of working of miracles. These are individuals who are more anointed by the Holy Spirit to operate in the area of the working

2 Corinthians 5:18 “Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation.” Before we look at the gift of the working or miracles we need to recognise that just as with the gifts of healings, scripture also reveals two main methods that the Lord uses to work miracles through His saints. The two methods are; working miracles through the prayer of faith and working miracles through the spiritual gift

John 5:19-21 “Then Jesus answered and said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner. (20) For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him all things that He Himself does; and He will show Him greater works than these, that you may marvel. (21) For as the Father raises the dead and gives life to them, even so the Son gives life to whom He will.” And so we

Acts 5:14-16 “And believers were increasingly added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women, (15) so that they brought the sick out into the streets and laid them on beds and couches, that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might fall on some of them. (16) Also, a multitude gathered from the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed.” Unlike healing through the prayer of faith

Acts 28:8-9 “And it happened that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and dysentery. Paul went in to him and prayed, and he laid his hands on him and healed him. (9) So, when this was done, the rest of those on the island who had diseases also came and were healed.” The above quoted passage of scripture is a classic example of how this gift operates. We quoted this passage earlier to show how the apostle Paul administered healing to Publius’ father using the prayer
