Every Thought – Revisited
Mr. Robert Ardis 01-04-2020 (from 03-23-2013)
Are we prepared in thought, word and deed for the Passover? Seven points of spiritual reflex action, as a measure of our conversion, are discussed. Are we overcoming by performing at levels 6 and 7?
The seven points of spiritual reflex action are the following: 1) I sin and do not realize it, 2) I sin and when told about it, I’m not concerned, 3) I sin and catch myself in sin, want to stop, but do not stop, 4) I sin and catch myself in sin, and stop, 5) I begin to sin and cry for help, and stop, 6) The thought of sin enters my mind, I do not sin and thank God, 7) I do not allow sin to come into my mind, and do not sin.

Your Spiritual CV – Part 1
Mr. Wallace Lawton 10-20-2019 Feast Of Tabernacles Day 7
A record is made of all of our doings while in the flesh. This record survives our death. This record is the basis for the individual judgement that we each receive from God. God will not give us an immortal body if our mind is carnal. We MUST renew our minds to “think like God”, with the help of the holy Spirit, NOW while in the flesh.
The Measure Of Conversion – Revisited
Mr. John Durrad 06-15-2019 (from 06-04-2011)
We must be able to measure our conversion and continually look at what part of our carnal nature needs to be eliminated. What is the measure we can use to tell if our conversion process is ongoing? Four aspects are provided to assist us in measuring ourselves:
- Are we on the lookout to identify a spirit of contention in ourselves and be ready to eliminate it?
- We must be willing to give all to the service of God. Is self being denied in order to obey God?
- Spiritually minded persons will not be easily offended or give offense to others. Does this describe us?
- We must not look to our standards in judging others. Are we measuring ourselves by God’s standards?
It’s Good To Be Good
Mr. John Durrad 03-15-2014
Goodness is a summary fruit of the spirit, exhibiting all the other fruits of the Spirit. Man’s carnal nature wants to be right, but not to do what is right in God’s eyes. God can bring goodness into our lives, but we must do good and this requires effort.

Gentleness
Mr. Wallace Lawton 03-01-2014
Numerous scriptures are mentioned that describe the attributes that past characters in the bible demonstrated around the spirit of gentleness. We ourselves must also show gentleness as one of the fruits of the Spirit.
