The sermon on the mount is also called the Mount of Beatitudes as well.  Matthew chapters 5-7 and Luke 6 is the scripture location of the clues given to possible places where this teaching was delivered by Yeshua (Jesus) our Messiah.  We know that in one location, the Byzantine’s built a church on what they claim as the location, but another location has been put forth on the trail called the “Jesus Walk.”  Still, Nelson’s Complete Book of Bible Maps and Charts show even a third location.

Arthur Bailey – The Power of the Holy Spirit (Part 2)

Arthur Bailey continues the teaching on ‘the Power of the Holy Spirit‘ (part 2) getting deep into your life.  We personally witnessed in practice the power (dunamis) of the Holy Spirit right after this teaching aired.  Our granddaughter took ill and in prayer we commanded the spirit of fever to leave and anything not of the father to leave.  Using the authority given to us by the Messiah, all manner of sickness left the children and she was healed.  Please, don’t just listen and enjoy… Listen and put into practice in your life the principles that are shown in this teaching.
