Bill Hake
- Church of the Word Sermons
- Pastor Bill Hake from Abundant Life Church in York, PA preaches from Ps. 26 about integrity, the integrity of a person that reflects that they live by what they say and believe. When we live a life of integrity, we welcome the scrutiny and examination of our heart by other people and God. How do we live our lives? Who are our friends? Do you know your relationships are assigned to you to do the Father's will? We need to be faithful and live a life of integrity that glorifies God.

Dale Armstrong

- Using Romans 1:16 and I Thessalonions 1:5, Pastor Dale teaches us that God is a good God, He's for us, and He wants to reward us. We need not to be ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, because it is the power in our lives to overcome sin and to get us on track. The Gospel we live by brings change and joy. We don't need to be afraid of the will of God. In order to have victory, we must have battles. Our conflicts will cause us to rise above them and cause us to achieve. We need power to be bold.

- Grieve Not the Spirit
-
Dale Armstrong
- Church of the Word Sermons
- Texts: Eph. 4:29 and I Thess. 5:16. The Holy Spirit has a sensitive nature. It doesn't take much to grieve or quench Him, nor to welcome Him. We grieve the Spirit when we suppress and try to control the ministry gifts and the Holy Spirit in someone. We must yield to the Spirit, because He wants to use us. We shouldn't be afraid of the supernatural, nor allow the fear of failure to keep us in bondage. We stay in the Spirit and move in the Spirit by the hearing of faith (Gal. 3:2). Move on, not allowing the hurts of life to keep us from flowing in the Spirit.

- He preaches that the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all. The five-fold ministry, miracles, gifts of healings, helps, administrations, and varieties of tongues are to equip the Body in the ministry of reconciliation, to do the works of Jesus and even greater ones, and to have dominion over what God has made. Each one of us is to have dominion over his or her own body and not be conformed to this world.

-
Dale Armstrong
- Church of the Word Sermons
- I Cor. 11:23-33; Paul wasn't at the Passover meal with the other disciples, but he still said that he received the directive for communion from the Lord, because it was given to him by divine revelation. Communion is very special, holy, miraculous, beautiful. Even though Jesus fully knew the meaning of what He was doing at the Lord's Supper and the disciples didn't, He gave thanks to God that He could offer Himself. The blood is for the forgiveness for the remission of sins. The breaking of the bread represents the stripes on His body for our bodies' healing. Weakness, sickness, and premature death may be caused by not discerning the Lord's body. Examine your heart making sure there is no unrepented sin in your life and that you are rightly discern the Lord's body.
