What Do You Call The Holy spirit? Comforter - Counselor - Advocate

  What Do You Call The Holy spirit? Comforter - Counselor - Advocate   Introduction : The Holy Spirit is Probably the least understood person of the Trinity, among the myths and the mistaken concepts that are shared, he has been described as a force, a ghost, and a second class or replacement god. He is confused with the manifestations themselves, and has even been presented as an incidental figure that appears momentarily.

100 Reasons why you should stay married

     100 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD STAY MARRIED      A MANUSCRIPT BY FOLASAYO AWODUMILA INTRODUCTION Be subject to one another out of reverence for Christ. Wives, be subject to your husbands as you are to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife just as Christ is the head of the church, the body of which he is the Savior. Just as the church is subject to Christ, so also wives ought to be, in everything, to their husbands. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, in order to make her holy by cleansing her with the washing of water by the word, so as to present the church to himself in splendor, without a spot or wrinkle or anything of the kind—yes, so that she may be holy and without blemish. In the same way, husbands should love their wives as they do their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hates his own body, but he nourishes and tenderly cares for it, just as Christ does ...

He absorbed it completely as he becomes a curse in our place, for it is written " Everyone who is hung upon a tree is doubly cursed (Gal 3:13) How did Jesus pay the price : He was human and without sin, he was able to take our sin and sacrifice himself on the cross to pay for our mistakes.(Col 1:14) We all have a guilty conscience, to let us know if we've done something wrong, or that pricks us when we do wrong things, but Jesus offers another way to make things right with God of justice - a way to free us from the condemnation of God and of our own conscience, it's a way that lets the principle of justice stand and at the same...
