God’s Jealous Demands / The Principle Of Emptiness, by John Robert Stevens. These messages were spoken in South Gate, CA on Sunday, March 5, 1961 and in South Gate, CA on Sunday, March 12, 1961. Hidden Treasure.

God’s Jealous Demands

Our God is a jealous God. He wants you to serve Him with all of your heart, soul, and mind. This means that the Lord’s demands on you exceed anything else and that He is to be served at any price.

The Principle Of Emptiness

The principle of emptiness helps us to understand that the riches of the spirit will never be diminished by giving them away. Never send a person away empty-handed, either spiritually or materially, and never come into God’s presence with your hands empty of the continual praise that pleases Him.

Attitudes Of Heart That God Expects / Christ’s Dual Lordship / Assimilate What He Is, by John Robert Stevens. These messages were spoken in South Gate, CA on Sunday, March 19, 1961. Hidden Treasure.

Attitudes Of Heart That God Expects

The Lord wants us to have certain attitudes towards each other and towards Him. We must have an attitude of carefulness so that we do not stumble our brother; of faithfulness so that we rebuke him when he sins; and of forgiveness, which is the key to the New Testament church. Towards the Lord, we must have an attitude of faith, submissive dedication, and thanksgiving, so that God’s blessings are not shut off from us.

Christ’s Dual Lordship

There are two areas of the Lordship of Christ: His Lordship over everything in heaven and earth; and His specific Lordship over His Body, the Church. As the Body of Christ deepens her submission to Christ as Lord, then there will be greater manifestations of His headship over all kingdoms, principalities, and powers.

Assimilate What He Is

We must come to the Communion table with the realization that we can appropriate and assimilate the life of Christ–His nature, His attributes, and His wisdom–as we voluntarily surrender our life to Him.

God’s Will For Evangelism

In the evangelism that the Lord wants in this hour, He gives us the words to say to every needy man that comes to us. God wants us to be the channels and agents of the destiny He had planned before the foundation of the world for that person.

“As For Me…”

How should I react if I have been betrayed or am ridiculed by others? As David declared in the Psalms, “As for me,…” I will seek the face of the Lord.

Seek God’s Wisdom

There are two kinds of wisdom. Earthly wisdom is derived from what a person sees, feels, and hears, and it is motivated by selfish ambitions. However, the wisdom acquired from God gives us understanding of the things of the Lord, leads us and guides us, and bears witness to the will of God for our lives.

Our Redemption From The Sin Nature

Whereas Adam sinned and we inherited our sin nature, so the Holy Spirit came to give us the heritage of Jesus Christ. Christ has taken our guilt upon Himself so that we can take His innocence and stand in the righteousness He imparts to us. This is the basis of our salvation. This message is based upon points #3 and #4, “This We Believe And Do Know,” from To Every Man That Asketh.

Transformed While Beholding Him

The only real way to lay aside the old adamic nature and be transformed into His divine likeness is by exposure to the Lord. We are changed while beholding Him. Your best efforts to change will not work, but in His presence, He will crucify the old nature and instill in your His divine nature.

Make No Provision For Leaving / What Is An Intercessor? / Expand, Enlarge, by John Robert Stevens. These messages were spoken in South Gate, CA on Sunday, November 15, 1959, in South Gate, CA on Sunday, December 13, 1959, and in South Gate, CA on Sunday, December 27, 1959. Hidden Treasure.

Make No Provision For Leaving

A dedication to God simply means that you no longer belong to yourself and that His will is the only law of your life. Make no provision for leaving the walk that God chooses for you. By His grace, say “yes” to His call.

What Is An Intercessor?

An intercessor must be unselfish and concerned only that the Lord be glorified and that God’s people be blessed. With joy and praise towards the Lord, the intercessor can turn the heart of the Lord and avert judgment.

Expand, Enlarge

You will lose God’s blessing on you if you allow the spiritual law of gravity to continue pulling against you. The law of gravity is reversed through the application of the cross experience of Christ in your life.

He Has Removed The Sting Of Death

“He who believes in Me shall never die” (John 11:26), yet believers still pass on. How do we cope with that, and how should we think about death? How do you know if the stories in the Bible are true? How do you know if someone is a false prophet or not? This amazing apostolic Word will answer these questions.

The Law Of Witness And Confirmation

God’s law of witness requires that every Word He speaks to you be confirmed by two or three witnesses. The confirmed Word becomes the basis of your faith and your walk with God, for by that Word, you will be judged. This message is based upon Lesson 48, “God Confirms His Word,” from The First Principles.

The Faith Of Elijah

Elijah’s great faith and hunger to walk with God compelled him to live beyond the limitations and restraints of his time, and to reach into the dispensations of the future. This present-day walk with God requires the same level of consecration to the Lord that Elijah had. Is the Lord your priority?
