The Immeasurable Riches of Christ & Witchcraft

Ephesians is probably my favorite book in the Bible. I love the passages on the power we have in “heavenly places.” Another favorite of mine is when Paul expounds upon our inheritance as saints.

Speaking in Tongues — Is it The Initial Evidence of Holy Spirit Baptism?

by Stevie B Recently, Dave Edwards and myself recorded a podcast on this very subject.  This entry will probably post on Fire Press before or around the same time I’ve finished editing and publishing the episode to our podcast feed.   The reason I am posting this is because I’d like to share...

Why The Song of Solomon Fascinates Me

Recently I got up to preach at Centro de Fuego/The Fire Center (our church here in Lima, Peru), and people snickered and made jokes when I told them to turn in their Bibles to the Song of Solomon. Remarks like “of course” were heard across the room, and jokes about how people were...

True Discernment & the Primacy of Intercession

“…. judgment without mercy will be shown to anyone who has not been merciful. Mercy triumphs over judgment!” -James 2.13 At the end of our lives, we will see that the most crucial component of our character in God, is whether or not we have become a people of mercy. When the smoke and fire...

Love: The More Excellent Way, part 2

“How much better is your love than wine, and the fragrance of your oils than any spice!” Song of Solomon 4:10b “And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.” Ephesians 5:2 We began in our previous article with this verse from the...
