The Tool Box Series, Part #2, is the second group of four foundational Christian teachings combined into one book, as seen in the brief description below. The Word of God The Apostle John identified Jesus as God, the creator of all things, and as the Word of God. We build our relationship with Jesus on the foundation of the word of God. God has provided all things that pertain to life and godliness through his word. The word of God is our milk, meat, and daily bread, and seven days without the word makes one weak. All believers should love the scriptures, and this study outlines how we can be impacted and grow by God's word. Prayer Developing a prayer life is up to the individual, and we must personally decide what our commitment will be. Everyone has their particular way of praying because we are all individuals with a personal relationship with God. There is no authorized official template for prayer, but the most important thing is to pray and spend time with God. We have included information about what hinders prayer and what enhances the effectiveness of prayers with outlines and ideas that may help organize and develop a disciplined prayer life. Water Baptism If you ask most Christians about water baptism, they would probably give you the standard clich???s about an outward sign of an inward change or making a public confession of faith.But water baptism has profound spiritual implications with Biblical and historical significance. Jesus commanded his followers to be water baptized. Throughout history, the practice of water baptism has been changed, corrupted, and persecuted, and like other biblical mandates and teachings, the truth always comes under attack. Hopefully, by the end of this study, we will have a greater appreciation for the profound impact that water baptism has had on history and can have in our lives. Baptism of the Holy Spirit The purpose of this study is to show what the scriptures teach regarding the baptism of the Holy Spirit. We contend that the baptism and gifts of the Holy Spirit, given on the day of Pentecost, have not ceased but will continue to function until the rapture. We would beg to differ with the anti-Holy Spirit contingent and contend that the gifts of the Holy Spirit are still in operation and have not been discontinued or ceased from functioning in the church. And granted, numerous bizarre and flaky quacks fleece the flock, twist the scriptures, and bring great reproach and shame by claiming false gifts in false ministries. But they do not cancel, void, or negate all the legitimate gifts of the Holy Spirit in humble and sincere servants of God. Our position is that all the promises of God are Yes and Amen in Christ. The gifts are still available and will only cease after the rapture, but until then, the church needs them now more than ever. Jesus said the signs of his return would be like birth pangs, growing in intensity and frequency and globally. All those signs happen at once, and we can see them happening in real-time with wars, food shortages, pandemics, shutdowns, and natural disasters, all leading to a one-world government ruled by the antichrist. Also, there will be a great falling away from Christ, with churches becoming perverted, politically woke, and government-controlled. Eventually, all true believers will have to come out of the dead institutional denominations and fake churches. Thank God we have a blessed hope that Jesus will rapture the church before wrath and judgment hit the earth! While we have time and freedom, we should study the scriptures, share the gospel, and learn to live by faith. This book is part of a series of basic teachings that all Christians should know and teach. We call it the "toolbox series" because each study is a tool for you to share your faith with others.
