If we sense our stewardship now and are faithful to it, we will be ready to assume authority later. The steward is aware that he belongs to the Lord.

This cassette tape contained the following message by John Robert Stevens.

June 5, 1974 Wednesday P.M. Ana.

Acts 2 shows a fantastic oneness in the Church as a result of the baptism of the Spirit and fire. We see the rivalry and contention of the disciples end in an amazing time of sharing and communion together. Paul tells us that by one Spirit we are baptized into one Body. The tragedy today is the reception of the Holy Spirit without the fire that welds us into one Body in our actual relationship as His Church. (50 min.)
