Even the Wind and the Sea Obey, pt. 2

Last updated on: April 26, 2023 at 5:03 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Even the Wind and the Sea Obey, pt. 2 He woke up and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, ‘Peace! Be still!’ Then the wind ceased, and there was a dead calm. (Mark 4.39, NRSV) This is part 2 of a series. To read part 1 CLICK Peace! Be Still! can also be translated Quiet down! My favorite translation: My Mom taught kid’s class at church, set up a makeshift boat, all the kids piled in, and Melissa... Read more

Even the Wind and the Sea Obey, pt. 1 He did not speak to them except in parables, but he explained everything in private to his disciples. On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, ‘Let us go across to the other side.’ And leaving the crowd behind, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. Other boats were with him. A great gale arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat... Read more

Why do Pentecostals Like to Eat Together?

Last updated on: April 23, 2023 at 4:46 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Why do Pentecostals like to eat together? A Pentecostal asked this question who had spent her life in church. Certainly I could do a lot of research on Table Fellowship and come up with some profound answers. The larger Body of Christ is considering the question, not only Pentecostals. Why do Christians like to eat together? There are other elements of reading communities supporting growth in the Word. They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread... Read more

But Are They Discerning? pt. 2

Last updated on: April 16, 2023 at 4:04 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Not long ago, I wrote about the term discerning. I meant it, even though I referenced the spiritual gift called discernment. There’s a fine line between the two that stems from tradition moreso than from Biblical knowledge. To read the first article CLICK In the first article, I draw a sharp line between knowing because of information gathering (picking it up, fact checking, etc.) and discerning, or discernment for that matter. In this article, I would like to splice hairs,... Read more

A Question About the Question

Last updated on: April 16, 2023 at 4:08 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Quick Question: Do you ever find yourself asking the wrong question? Sometimes I am seeking the Lord, and I realize my prayers aren’t being answered. It doesn’t happen every time, but sometimes when I tweak the question, or ask a new question, I receive an answer. When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, ‘Lord, what about him?’ Jesus said to him, ‘If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? Follow me!’... Read more

Last updated on: April 8, 2023 at 5:28 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

Seeking an Answer I’m in a place I never thought I’d be in right now. I’m trying to make decisions in a way I haven’t in a very long while. It’s one thing to pray with the head in the heart.

However, there are some real changes in our world with the homeland safety need for information sharing. The only question I have at times is, are they only picking it up or are they discerning?

On Prophecy, Knowledge & Wisdom

Last updated on: April 8, 2023 at 3:45 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

on prophecy, knowledge & wisdom This is something I’ve taught on extensively, a question asked by a fellow Pentecostal-Charismatic. What’s the difference between prophecy, knowledge, and wisdom? Of course we are referring to the Gifts (charisms) of the Spirit in 1 Corinthians 12.4-11 There’s actually a 4th similar Gift if we count the interpretation of tongues. To learn about interpretation, read the brief article: a distinction regarding speaking in tongues CLICK These Gifts edify the church, something Paul makes a... Read more

on direct communication from the Spirit

Last updated on: March 25, 2023 at 6:08 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

on direct communication from the Spirit This is a bit of a touchy subject in our day and age, specifically because of mental health. If a person says they have seen a burning bush that did not burn up, and have heard an audible voice, then many practitioners {and people in general} may want to diagnose the person. In fact it is my belief that some strict social scientists could attempt to diagnose many of the prophets and characters in... Read more

a distinction regarding speaking in tongues

Last updated on: March 25, 2023 at 12:04 am By Rev. Jared V. Ingle

a distinction regarding speaking in tongues The idea of speaking in tongues has been a controversial one historically. However, Pentecostals and Charismatics {those known for speaking in tongues} have been granted seats at the table of higher dialogue and we’re here to stay. Pentecostal scholarship has become widely accepted in the various fields of Theology. so what of speaking in tongues? It is not uncommon for worship bands to incorporate spontaneous worship and singing in tongues in a concert. To... Read more
