The Fire of God
August 15, 2008
Arguably the most complete exegetical study of I Corinthians chapters twelve through fourteen and scholarly commentary on the gifts of the Holy Spirit published in the last several years. The depths of this study mine beneath the King James and other English language translations to the original Greek used by the Apostle Paul when he penned this inspired letter to the Corinthian church circa 55 A. D.
Structured in a textbook format with study questions at the end of each chapter. The Fire of God is an exhaustive and sometimes challenging work. Your diligence, however, will be rewarded by a understanding of the gifts of the Holy Spirit as first explained to the early Church in the original language.
This study text is a must for anyone, regardless of doctrinal position, seriously exploring what the Bible really teaches regarding the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
The Fire of God is unique in that its author was not only a Greek and history scholar but a born-again, Spirit-filled Christian. This book was written from both scholarship and personal experience. As a pastor, evangelist, teacher, and author for forty years Jim Spillman not only studied and taught on the gifts of the Spirit but experienced them in his personal life. As a speaker and evangelist he shared the Holy Spirit’s healing power with hundreds of thousands of people in public gatherings throughout the world. Jim Spillman’s life truly demonstrated the “Fire of God” burning within him.
A Conspiracy of Angels
August 15, 2008
What happened to the angels who rebelled against God and were cast down from Heaven? It is evident that they were imprisoned in earth’s vicinity; their former galactic freedom taken from them. Until the time of final judgment they must share life space with God’s earthly creation.
Does their rebellion toward God continue in this terrestrial sphere? Have Satan and his fallen legions conspired through the centuries to pursue a campaign of evil against God’s earthly purpose for man? Do we possess the ability to recognize and thwart their evil strategy today?
We can say with reasonable confidence that there has never been a book on the subject of angels like “A Conspiracy of Angels”
Jim Spillman, author, evangelist, and Christian educator was widely known for his charismatic ministry and personality. As an evangelist and author Jim used his unique mix of spiritual and educational depth with humor to reach people where they were. Audiences around the world were captivated by the power of God demonstrated in his life and brought to Christ for salvation, baptism, healing, and other mighty works of renewal.
Jim left this earth for his eternal home in late 2002. His work, however, continues to touch people’s lives through books, and recorded material that remain as fresh and relevant today as when they were first produced. Jim’s story and resources can be found at www.JimSpillmanMinistries.org.

August 6, 2008
David Pawson is a prominent contemporary Bible teacher based in Great Britain. He is known for accepting the text as the authoritative word of God while explaining its meaning and context. Because he follows the teaching of Scripture where it clashes with church tradition, he is often controversial. Studying for his M.A. degree in theology at Cambridge University, under the influence of liberal teaching and liberal lecturers, Pawson lost his trust in the Bible and very nearly his faith in God. After a short spell in ministry for the Methodist church, he regained his trust in the infallibility and inerrancy of the Bible while a chaplain in the Royal Air Force of Great Britain. During this period he decided to preach the Bible systematically from start to finish. The results among the servicemen surprised both him and them, and confirmed to him Scripture’s inspiration. Since then, his preaching has either been Bible study or topical studies based on detailed contextual examination of what the Bible says. As pastor of Guildford Baptist Church (the Millmead Centre, which he designed), Pawson established a reputation among both evangelicals and charismatics as an effective and balanced expositor of the Bible. From here his teaching tapes - originally made for the church’s sick and elderly members - became popular worldwide.
Behind the communist Iron Curtain these tapes struck a chord with the persecuted church. Missionaries and spiritual leaders in far-off corners of the world, without the opportunity to sit under a regular teaching ministry, also became a significant audience for Pawson’s preaching. Under Pawson’s ministry, Millmead became the largest Baptist church in Britain. The church was unusual in that attendance was double the membership number; people regularly came from London to hear Pawson preach. Cliff Richard, who had been baptized by Pawson, was a regular attender.
Pawson left Millmead in 1979 and engaged in an itinerant worldwide Bible teaching ministry, which has been his main work to the present. During this time he has written a number of books. He is a frequent speaker in the UK, and his speaking engagements have taken him to many other parts of the world, including Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, The Netherlands, Israel, Southeast Asia and the United States.
David Pawson lives near Basingstoke, Hampshire in southern England with his wife Enid. In his 70s he remains busy with speaking engagements and has annual speaking appointments in Europe and at the Festival of Tabernacles in Israel, which he was a pioneer in encouraging Christians to attend.
