Romans 8:15-17 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit itself beareth witness with [More…]

If Christ Be In You?

December 4, 2016 Rick Alegria 0

Romans 8:10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. Last time we preached in Romans, we made an emphasis on the fact that the Holy Spirit is indeed the Spirit of Christ; the Spirit of the person Jesus Christ. I [More…]

Romans 8:9 “…Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.” Foreword Now if you take the positive light of this statement, we are to understand that if any man have the Spirit of Christ, he is His. If you have the Spirit of [More…]

Romans 8

To be Carnally Minded

September 25, 2016 Rick Alegria 0

But now we are on verses 6,7,8. Paul is going to take a step back here and give his reader warning of the carnal mind. I read these three verses and to me they are a stern warning, and admonishment of the danger and absolute ruin of the carnal mind.

The spiritual mind, or to be spiritually minded, is not just a simple acknowledgement that there is a Holy Spirit, and a few facts about him. It is a life-driving, self-denying, God-fearing, Christ-serving, soul-satisfying journey to a heavenly kingdom. Likewise, the carnal mind is not just the normal average state of man, nothing to especially regret. No, it is a grave-digging, god-hating, law-breaking, one-way ticket to a devil’s hell. [More…]

Things of the Spirit, Part 8

September 4, 2016 Rick Alegria 0

I want to stress to you that there a lot of things that we can concern ourselves with. God told Daniel, “…even to the time of the end: may shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” (Dan12:4) There’s a lot of things out there that we can gain knowledge about. They call this the age of information. And I know sometimes, there’s things we need to concern ourselves with. But somehow, someway, we must give the things of God preeminence. We must set our minds, our hearts, our souls on the things above. In many places in the bible, we are admonished, “And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all they might.” (Deut 6:5). With all our strength, with all our being, we must attend unto the things of God, the things of the Spirit. O that God would fill us with his Holy Spirit. That he would pour out his Spirit upon us. God does not give such blessings to those that don’t want it. “Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:” (Isaiah 55:6) [More…]
