Stick out your tongue!

By Sidharth Mohandas All of us struggle with an untamed tongue almost daily, we say things we don’t mean, we spew out lies in it’s different covers, we pass comments to belittle someone else, we pass judgment on other Christian brothers supposedly exposing the devil, we even exaggerate what God is doing to receive acknowledgment [...]

Resurrection Continued

Resurrection Continued

By Titto Thomas In the last couple of posts, Sidharth introduced the biblical reality called resurrection. In this post we delve deeper into this.  Let’s start with this key verse “But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep” (1 Corinthians 15:20 ESV). To fully understand [...]

The Ketubah

The Ketubah

By PJ Sorensen When the New Covenant was written, Jewish wedding customs included a betrothal period before the wedding ceremony. The bride gave her consent and the parties involved established the terms of the marriage contract (ketubah). When the covenant was sealed with the bride and groom drinking from a cup of wine, the couple [...]

Praying in the Spirit…

By Sidharth Mohandas INTRODUCTION I’m sure most of us have heard phrases like “praying in the spirit” or “praying in the Holy Spirit”. What is it? How is it different from other prayers? What is the benefit of it? Let me first quote all the references to this kind of praying from Scripture: “For if [...]

Halal

By Sidharth Mohandas “I will declare Thy name unto my brethren: in the midst of the congregation will I praise [Hebrew: HALAL] Thee.” (Psalm 22:22) Scripture reveals mainly seven different kinds of Hebraic praise. Today I want to focus on one particular kind called “Halal”. It is from this Hebrew word that the word “Hallelujah” [...]

Diverging Destinies

Diverging Destinies

By Sidharth Mohandas What happens after death? Do we cease to exist? Is there life after death? These are some questions that cross every person’s mind. In this article I desire to lift a part of the veil that separates this world from eternity by giving you a glimpse of what comes after death. There [...]

Hazed Mirror

Hazed Mirror

By Angie Vickery ‘For we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror. Then we shall see face to face.’ (I Corinthians 13:12) In I Corinthians 13:12, it’s made clear to us that we don’t see the things of God completely clearly nor do we know it all! And therefore we don’t walk in [...]

The Quest For Independence

The Quest For Independence

By Titto Thomas The world is amazing. Just look at the mix of nations on this one planet. The current nations are the result of centuries of rebellions and revolutions. And at the heart of these struggles was a single word –Independence. I want to be independent: this cry, from millions of throats, fueled revolution [...]

Intimacy with the Spirit

Part II (for Part I, click here) By PJ Sorensen I did not expect the relationship to grow so deep……but it has. I’ve loved Him for 35 years……and He’s MISHPACHA (FAMILY). He’s my greatest love. He’s my dearest friend. He’s my closest confident. He’s the smartest teacher. He’s the most loving and kind entity I [...]

Kingdom Authority: So, Who Are You?

Kingdom Authority: So, Who Are You?

By Angie Vickery “Some Jews who went around driving out evil spirits tried to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who were demon-possessed. They would say, “In the name of Jesus, whom Paul teaches, I command you to come out.” Seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, were doing this. One [...]

The Gospel Series: Hebrews 2:1-4

The Gospel Series: Hebrews 2:1-4

QUICK RECAP Before we continue to study Hebrews chapter 2, let me give you a quick recap of what we have seen so far. (1)   In Hebrews 1:1-4, the author contrasts the Son to the prophets (Hebrews 1:1-2) and the angels (Hebrews 1:4), establishing His superiority over each of them. We understand that His purpose [...]

The Gospel Series: Hebrews 1:5-14

The Gospel Series: Hebrews 1:5-14

In our previous study, we came to understand that the author of Hebrews was trying to establish the supremacy of the Son above the prophets and the angels. We understood that Christ is the ultimate, supreme…the final and full expression of the Father! (If you have missed the previous teaching, please click here.) Observation Level [...]

The Gospel Series: Hebrews 1:1-4

The Gospel Series: Hebrews 1:1-4

In the upcoming months Titto, Angie, and I will be teaching on the book of Galatians, Colossians, and Hebrews, respectively. We are expecting the Lord to do great things through the course of these teachings. Our approach in these teaching sessions will predominantly be inductive in nature (For more information about “Inductive Bible Study” Click [...]

The Gospel Series

The Gospel Series

The Lord has impressed upon my heart to continue to work on the foundations of faith. If there is anything Paul vehemently fought against, it wasn’t about menial doctrinal differences on spiritual gifts, head covering or food habits, but it was the infiltration of the Gospel by the Law. There are whole books in the [...]

Anastasis

Anastasis

By Sidharth Mohandas If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith. More than that, we are then found to be false witnesses about God, for we have testified about God that he [...]

Arise Lithuania 2010

We have been wanting to write a report of the meetings we recently had in Lithuania. We didn’t even feel like writing anything because we felt it would be an injustice or a understatement to the way He moved. The purpose for writing this report is to (1) Witness to what God has done (2) [...]

Following the Father’s Heart

Following the Father’s Heart

By Sidharth Mohandas In my previous teaching, I presented to you certain aspects of why we are so prone to be distracted easily from the goal of discipleship. Each part of our being has its place and function.  They complement each other, but they are not meant to take each other’s place.  The spirit will [...]

Human Wiring System

Human Wiring System

By Sidharth Mohandas As we enroll in the school of discipleship, it is important we understand what the goal of discipleship is. Unless and until we understand this, we will never be able to work towards it, with the Lord. We will in fact be tossed to and fro by all that comes our way. [...]

An Inductive Approach

An Inductive Approach

Beloved ones, We at Imrah have taken up the assignment to study and teach the Word with an exclusively inductive approach, in addition to the Foundation Course we’re doing over Skype. Mostly preachers and teachers of the Word use the deductive approach, where they take a topic they want to study and then gather Scriptures [...]
