BAPTIZED INTO ONE BODY

Release #: 74-06-20-11-R
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.)

This cassette tape contained the following message by John Robert Stevens.
June 6, 1974 Thursday A.M. Val.
The helmet which protects our minds from that continual assault Satan brings is the hope of salvation. There is nothing more disastrous than the satanic oppressive despair. The carnal mind, when so obsessed with despairs, is indeed death. In fact, we must come to the end of our natural human hopefulness and appropriate His hope and faith. This study traces the origin in Isaiah of these pieces of armor and identifies them with the end-time judgments of Christ. (55 min.)

IT IS SETTLED!
May 19, 1974 Sunday A.M. Val.
God’s Word is settled in heaven. His purpose is unchangeable. His provision for us is perfect. He and His promises are immutable. We are the variables. But when His Word is settled in our hearts and thinking, then His provision is appropriated. Usually a message is not repeated in the churches but this message was preached both in the Valley and in Anaheim. Both versions are similar but enough different to warrant the inclusion of both.

The carnal mind reacts to situations with fear which freezes the flow of the spirit. Our minds are so conditioned to fear–the fear of man which maketh a snare–and to a sense of shame. Why are so many people afraid and ashamed to move in God? (13 1/2 min.)
