“What if?” It’s a question that can often hold us back.
“What if I hadn’t…?” “What if they didn’t…?” “What if I would have…?” But “what if” works both ways. In “The Power of What If,” Pastor Steven Furtick of Elevation Church poses a new question: What if God has something for you on the other side of your storm?

Michele Allen’s Testimony: I was born and raised in a wonderful home. When I was 17 years old a friend of mine showed me in the Bible that “We must be born again to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. I went to a Evangelical-type church and church camp. There,I felt the presence of God for the first time in my life!! It was truly amazing! I sincerely repented and cried rivers of heartfelt genuine tears of sorrow for the life I had been living. I was told that I was “born again” But for the next three years I experienced feelings of the frustration of not being able to live for God. I felt unworthy Bc I kept failing Him. I could not seem to grow in God like the Bible talked about and continued to revert back to a sinful lifestyle. I felt utterly defeated Bc I could not stay faithful to God, His Word or His commandments. I could not tell you how many times I was “born again”again at the altar of repentance. It wasn’t until I was almost 20 years old, walked into an Apostolic Church and got a Bible study that the truth of salvation began to be come to light: The gospel indeed is the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ: (I Corinthians 15: 1-4). The best thing I ever learned was how to rightly divide the word of truth. The four Gospels which are Matthew, Mark, Luke and John talk about Jesus and His earthly ministry. In the book of John, Nicodemus came to Jesus in the night and Jesus told him unless a man be born again...so they talked ABOUT being born again JOHN 3:3-5 (except a man be born of the water and of the spirit he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven) but no one was actually born again anywhere in the 4 gospels. Before Calvary they were still under the law but after Calvary they are under under grace. No one could be born again until Jesus had been glorified. (John 7:37-39) This is why the thief on the cross was able to be be with Jesus in paradise. It isn’t until you get to the book of Acts, after the resurrection and when the 1st century church started on the day of Pentecost that you actually witness people being born of the water by being baptized by immersion ONLY in the name of Jesus. And where they saw and heard them be filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in tongues. So if you want to find out HOW to be born again, the Book of Acts is the only place anyone was ever actually born again. Acts 21-4,2:38,3:19,8:12-18,8:35-39,10:43-4816:30-34,18:8,19:2-6 In John 3:8 and Acts 2:33 Speaks of how you cannot see the wind but you know that it is moving because you see the branches move and you hear the wind through the leaves. And so is every man that is born of the Spirit. You cannot see the Spirit if God (John 4:24) but when it enters a man you can see the tongue move and you can hear the utterance of them speaking as the Spirit gives the utterance. Whenever God gave a promise he always gave the sign to that promise. In the old testament he made a covenant promise with Noah He would never flood the earth with water again and the sign to the promise was the rainbow. Then God made a promise covenant to Abraham that he would be the father of many nations and the sign of that promise covenant was circumcision. In the new testament God promises us the Holy Ghost and tells the disciples to tarry in the upper room for the promise Bc since Jesus can no longer get be with us He now wants to reside in us. The promise is the Holy Ghost and that sign to that covenant promise is tongues. In James 5 it says that the tongue is the most unruly member of the body. When God has control of our tongue it shows we have submitted our entire being to Him. The Holy Ghost and Fire/Tongues of Fire. The evidence of the Holy Ghost is speaking in tongues. (Matt 3:11-12, Luke 3:17-18, Acts2:1-4) He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with Fire. Receiving it will keep you out of the eternal flames of Fire! 🔥 Then the Epistles are from Romans to Jude. They are letters written to the churches of Saints that have already been born again...Letters written to born-again believers that have already received the Acts 2:38 message. In some places in Acts and even in the epistles it says to just believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved. Well, believe what? The Gospel! What is the Gospel? I Corinthians 15:1-4 t 1. death, 2. burial, and 3. resurrection of Jesus Christ. How do we OBEY (action word) the Gospel? 1. repentance (death to self), 2. baptism in Jesus name (burial) and 3. receiving the Holy Ghost (Resurrection) with the evidence of speaking in tongues in Acts 2:38-39 and John 3:3-8. The Death, Burial and Resurrection/Repentance, Baptism and Receive the Holy Ghost theme is thread throughout the entire Bible. In Exodus when the children of Israel were in Egyptian bondage God told Moses to tell them to strike blood of a spotless lamb door post of the HOUSE 🏡 THREE (3) times and then the death Angel would pass over them and the firstborn in their house would not die. It’s the same for us: When we 1. repent 2. Get baptized 3. Receive Holy Ghost The blood 🩸 of Jesus is applied to us each time Bc in Ephesians 2:22, I Corinthians 3:16 and Romans 8:9-11 it says that we are the house of God when He comes to live inside of us. In Leviticus when the Priest went into the TABERNACLE/TEMPLE to perform the ritual for the children of Israel to have their sins rolled ahead one year up till Calvary. The PRIEST applied blood on his body 3 times and he also applied blood on the 3 pieces of the furniture. The Bible says in first Peter 2:5-9 that we are royal PRIESThood . (I Corinthians 6:19) The Bible also says that our bodies are TEMPLES of the Holy Ghost. So it is the same for us: when we 1. repent 2. Get baptized 3. receive the Holy Ghost. The blood of Jesus is applied to us. Obey is an action word. We can believe all we want the light will turn on but unless we walk over and turn that light switch on the light won’t go on. (Ephesians 2:8-9) We are saved by faith and not of works lest any man should boast. I was almost 20 years old when I went down into the waters of baptism in Jesus name for the remission of my sin. When I came up out of the water I could hardly breathe because I felt like a brand new baby!! (at this moment, in a natural birth, the water, blood and baby is there but until the you hear the baby cry after taking in that first breath of air it could be still born. So you wait for the cry to know that baby is alive-so is everyone that it’s born of the Spirit) I began to speak in other tongues and could not speak English. It was the most amazing, the most powerful and the most enlightening and cleansing experience I’ve ever had in my entire life!! It wasn’t until at that moment I was truly born of water and of the Spirit. I was finally filled with the power to help me live a victorious life and to conquer many temptations that came my way. (Romans 13:14) When you are baptized you are covered or have put on Christ (Gen 3:21-God clothed or put on the coats of skins of a bloody animal to cover the sin of Adam and Eve), (Romans 6:4) you are buried with Him in baptism, (Acts 2:33, 3:19) you have your sins remitted, (Acts 4:12) you take on His name in baptism Bc the only way anyone was ever baptized was in the name of Jesus. (Matthew 28:19-The name is the Father is Jesus (John 5:43) The name of the Son is Jesus (Matthew 1:21) The name of the Holy Ghost is Jesus (John 14:26) When you take on His name you become his Bride. When you speak in tongues that is the evidence of Jesus living inside of you. (Romans 8:9-16) You are then adopted and become the sons and daughters of God. The Holy Ghost is just a portion of our inheritance. If we do not have His Spirit dwelling in us we are none of His and we will not be taken in the rapture. Those three years between the ages of 17-20 I was living on a repentance experience. “ Leaving Jesus hanging there on the cross” so to speak. (Matthew 28:19, Mark 16:16, Acts 2:14-41, Acts 8:37-38, Acts 10:47-48). I was not obeying the command to be buried with him in the waters of baptism and I had not received the Holy Ghost So I could be resurrected to walk in newness of life. Therefore could not live an overcoming Christian life. Please reply if you have any questions, comments or concerns. I would definitely value your opinion as well.

BAP Speaking in tongues is the evidence that you initially receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Just like they did on the day of Pentecost in Acts 2:4. It is being born of the Spirit (John 3:3-8) The book of acts was the church age that is why you will find that only in the book of acts with anyone ask again. You will see it in acts 8:14-22, 10:44-48, 19:1-6. There are places that they receive the Holy Ghost and it does not say they spoke in tongues but it will imply it. The epistles which is Romans through Jude are letters written to the churches that have already had the book of acts born-again experience. In I Corinthians 12 it talks about the spiritual gifts given to people already born again for the edification of the church. I Corinthians 12:10,28 is the gift of tongues and I Corinthians 12:10 is the interpretation of tongues. The best way to explain this is if you were ever in a church service and everybody is worshiping God and then all the sudden it becomes very quiet and then you have 2 to 3 people speak out really loud at separate times in tongues and then later on one person will interpret what God has just spoken thru those 2 or 3 people in tongues. that is what those gifts are talking about. If you are comfortable I would sincerely rather have you give me a call there is so much more to explain. My name is Michele and my number is 920-740-9777. Hope to hear from you soon and have a blessed evening

I believe you pastor. You can only stay into a situation when your faith is strong. You can go through thick and thin in life but if you believe in the living God, you will be patient and consistent until he comes to rescue you when the time is right.

God is using this man as a light of this world. Instead of tearing people down he’s actually trying help build. It’s not his fault God chose him. He has the modern day look and speech. Snap out of history because God is doing a NEW THING. No one knows when he’s coming and not one person on earth knows what God looks like. Stop condemning this pastor because he’s not your style of preaching.
