FULLNESS IS A WAY OF LIFE
May 11, 1975 Sunday A.M. Val.

Release #: 75-05-10-02-R

This cassette tape contained the following 2 messages by John Robert Stevens.

MEET WITH GOD!
May 2, 1975 Friday P.M. Val.

When a church has services filled with prophecies, psalms, singing in the Spirit, prophetic prayers, etc., it becomes easy to sink into a mechanical manifestation that does not convey a living presence of the Lord to all present. In the final analysis people are not drawn into the Walk by our prophecies and our singing in the Spirit but rather because they sense the presence of the Lord. (59 min.)

Scriptures: Matt. 22:37-39; Heb. 10:20,25; I Cor. 13:1-2; 14:23-25; Hosea 6:3; Dan. 11:32

SAVED TO SERVE
May 1, 1975 Thursday A.M. Val.

Here, as elsewhere in the New Testament, the apostolic emphasis is upon: 1) the grace of God which brings salvation apart from meri torious works on our part, and 2) that this grace bestowed upon us results in fruitful and spiritual works upon our part. Thus we are saved to serve. (59 min.)

Scriptures: Titus 2:11-15; 3:1-8,14-15; II Sam. 11:1; Eph. 2:8-10; Eph. 5:16; I Cor. 15:10; Heb. 11:6; Matt. 6:33

This cassette tape contained the following 2 messages by John Robert Stevens.

THREE SHORT ONES: 1. THEY SHALL SEE HIS FACE
March 17, 1974 Sunday P.M. SoG.

The Scriptures reveal the evolution of man’s relationship to God. First God dwelt in a temple of stone, and man approached Him by prophet and priest. Then God ordained that man should be the temple of the living God–a temple not made with hands. Now God reveals the vision of the new Jerusalem where there is no temple–for there His people “see His face.” Each step we make in worship brings us closer to the total awareness of the Lord.

THREE SHORT ONES: 2. SEASONS OF REFRESHING AND RESTORATION
April 21, 1974 Sunday P.M. SoG.

We are instructed to repent-to stand in His presence and receive the times of refreshing and periods of restoration. As God moves on we will not be left behind if we follow this simple formula. (21 min.)
