THE SPIRIT NET
THE SPIRIT NET
The Spirit Net was formed on April 24, 2004 by Phil WA3MNS, Dick WB8HNX, Barry WA1ANA & Patty KC2GLQ for the purpose of reading & studying the Bible "on the air" through HAM Radio. Our Net meets on 3905kcs Saturday thru Thursday at 9:30pm EST until 10:30pm. We are not an “in depth” Bible study group because today, people need a quick, clear & simple understanding of what the Bible says. On the Net we won’t argue over trivial or secondary Bible issues for long and we will keep any arguing over the primary issues of the Bible at a minimum so as not to give a platform to those who just want to disrupt the group. We do not pray on the net because we do not want to sound too “churchy” to our listeners. Phil & others use the New International Version (NIV) because it is easier to understand but you may use whatever version you like. We do not reject anyone because of their beliefs but, if we don’t agree on ANY issues, we ask that they don’t bring them up repeatedly so as to cause disruption. We read a chapter or part of one, and then we stop for questions, clarifications or comments about what was read. (Many thanks to Fred KB2IXT for "The Spirit Net" name).
OUR
PRIMARY BELIEFS ARE;
The Bible is the source for all truth
directly from God Himself. No person, tradition or denomination will override
it. There is one God, the creator of all things and He is revealed to us as 3
distinct beings: The Father, The Son (Jesus) and The Holy Spirit. Jesus came to
earth and became human to reveal God to us and to die for our sins so that we
could enter Heaven someday. He was born of the Virgin Mary, was fully God, fully
human and sinless. He was killed on a wooden cross but came back from the
dead so that we can live forever with Him someday.
We are saved (born again) by
believing in Jesus Christ (who He is and what He has done) and by asking God to
forgive our sins and come into our hearts (so to speak).
Got your reservation for Heaven? It's free but you can't get in without it! If you're serious about following God's plan for your life, simply ask Him to forgive you & come into your life and He will! SAY;
Lord Jesus, I am a sinner but I am sorry for my sins. I believe that you died on the cross so that I can be forgiven and that you came back from the dead so that I can have eternal life with You. I ask you to forgive my sins and come into my life, Amen.
(If you do this, let someone in the Spirit Net know by email or letter).
Are you
"growing" as a Christian?
(Answer "yes" to one or more of these).
1) You are more aware of sin in your life.
2) When you sin your response is quick repentance.
3) Spiritual battles are stronger but you know they must happen.
4) You realize that all things in your life now come from or through God.
5) You realize that trials & temptations are opportunities for spiritual growth.
6) Bible reading, prayer & serving God are now high priorities in your life.
7) Because of The Holy Spirit living in you, it takes more to upset you now.
8) You are eager to share your faith & experiences with others.
9) Although you aren't "sinless" you do sin less.
10) You sense God's presence with you & pray to Him more each day.
11) When the Bible tells you that something you believe is wrong, you willingly
accept it and readjust your thinking on the matter.
