LESSON ONE

INTRODUCTION
Whatever is not working for you, you haven't believed it enough. Until you
know what you have, you won't know who needs you. When you know what
you have, you'll know your value. Until you know your value, nobody will
need you.Deut.29:29

Revelation of the secrets of God is what makes for the manifestation of the
sons of God. It is revelation that produces manifestation.

DEFINITION OF TERMS
DYNAMIC
What does Dynamic mean?
 It is a moving or driving force
 Capable of giving a sense of power and transmitting energy.
 To be endowed with Divine force;
 The force that produces or changes motion.

SIGNS & WONDERS

 They are the deliberate acts of God triggered by the deliberate and
desperate acts of men.
 Supernatural acts of God that cannot be explained by any natural laws
 Things that is superior to natural. For example, the virgin birth of Jesus,
Sarah’s conception at the age of 90.
 It is the Expressions or evidences of the miraculous.
Miracles:

Signs and Wonders are the Believers Identity (Mark 16:17). The miraculous are
a product of the life of God in a believer. A believer without sign will be a
mockery and his belief questionable.

DYNAMICS OF SIGNS AND WONDERS

 This is the Operation of the divine power bringing about supernatural
acts in the life of a believer, thereby turning the beliver to a wonder.
5
  It can also be said to be the working of the supernatural acts of God by
the believer who has been endowed with divine power, bringing about
wonderful changes that cannot be explained by natural laws.

Signs add colors to your Christianity. When life lacks Signs, it lacks color. As
a Minister, you should desire to be relevant and a focus to your generation.

Don't excuse yourself for lack of results; the word of God is the standard to
measure your life. Accept the truth of God's word.

Signs and Wonders are believer's credentials. People want to see what you can
do before they believe you. You have no point if you have no proof.
“...Jesus was approved by Signs and Wonders…” Acts 2:22
They haven't believed you because they haven't seen enough.
Until you have what they don't have, they won't create place for you.

The life of God in you is at the Pool of Bethsaida, stir it up. Change your
mentality: Operate by decrees as a commander; God's purpose is for signs to
follow you. Signs and wonders are worked.

Nicodemus said, “No one can do these things except God is with Him” (John
3:2). Jesus said, “Except you see Signs & Wonders, you will not believe” (John
4:48)
A sign is always the answer to a need. Each time you encounter a need, all you
need is a sign.

They advertise the believer. They announce and promote the believer, and are
indispensable for the growth of any ministry.

They open all doors.

They are a proof of God’s presence.

 LESSON TWO

SIGNS AND WONDERS: BELIEVER'S HERITAGE

WHAT IS HERITAGE?
Inherited lot, not what you labour for. It means birthright, what is due to you
because of your relationship with the owner. As saints we have inheritances
that accrue to us by reason of redemption, and signs and wonders basic part of
them. Mark16:17.

For example, Adam was created with an extraordinary life style that was full of
miracles by virtue of his relationship with God, his creator. Adam could not be
sick and he had a sound mind, he alone named the animals - Gen. 2:16.
Jesus was the second Adam sent to restore all things. Isaiah 7:14: From
conception, everything about Christ was a sign.1 Cor. 15:45-47.

The second Adam came to live a life of wonders and signs of heaven. These
signs shall follow them that believe. Jesus lived as a sign and a wonder. When
he was going, he handed the baton to us when He said, “... as my father hath
sent me, even so send I you” John20:21. “…He that believeth on me, the
works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do …”
John14:12
You have inherited a supernatural nature that can produce the miraculous.

ASSURANCE OF HELP FOR ACYUALISATION OF OUR INHERITANCE

To further boost our confidence in this supernatural walk, Jesus promised, I am
you always, even unto the end of the world ...” Matt 28:18-20 “... God was with
them, working with them, confirming the word with Signs and Wonders
following...” Mark 16:20.
Jesus assures us of His help to fully realise our inheritance of signs and
wonders.

WHAT TO BECOME BY OUR INHERITANCE

 A wonder to many. Ps 71:7
 Man wondered at. Zech 3:8

7
 LESSON THREE

THE FOUNDATION FOR SIGNS AND WONDERS (Ps.11: 3)

The foundation for signs and wonders is the understanding of who you are, i.e.
an understanding of your status in God will keep you flowing in the realm of
the miraculous:-

1. YOU ARE A SPIRIT.

You are a spirit because God is a spirit (Jn. 4:23-24). If you are born of
the spirit, then you are a spirit (Jn.3:8). This understanding will apart
from helping you overcome the devil, help you subdue your flesh. As a
spirit you should not be afraid of the spirit realm because that is your
natural habitat, just like the fish is not afraid of water.
The physical world is subject to the spirit world (the unseen realm)
according to Heb.11:3 and we exist in both realms keeping us at
advantage over the devil.

2. YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD (Jn. 10:30-35)

Knowing that as a child of God you are one with the Father will cause
you to walk in the consciousness that the devil must submit to you as he
bows and submits to God.

3. YOU ARE PECULIAR (1 Pet.2:5-9)

Realise that you have been chosen to be peculiar and different from the
people of the world. You cannot suffer what others in the world are
suffering because you are special. Your case is different always.

4. YOU ARE AN AMBASSADOR (IICor.5:20)

An ambassador resides in a foreign country representing the interests of
his country with the full backing of his country. Our citizenship is in
Heaven. We are here to represent the interests of heaven, and whenever
we speak to devils the forces of heaven will back us up.
Your security here is also guaranteed by the angels as an ambassador of
Christ.

5. YOU ARE REDEEMED BY THE LORD

This means you have been bought over by the Lord; and you are now His
property. He will enforce his ownership over your life and any trespasser
8
 will be prosecuted by Him. Sickness, failure, poverty are trespassers
which must be prosecuted by Heaven’s court
(ICor.3:16, 17).

It also means your status has changed. You are redeemed to reign, and
not to be reduced.

6. YOU ARE A HEAVEN DWELLER (Eph. 1:20 – 21, 2:6)

Whatever has no legal dwelling right in heaven, should have no legal
dwelling right in your life.

7. YOUR ANGELIC COMPANY (Ps.34:7)

No matter the danger you find yourself in, the angels are always there to
defend you. Even in your sleep you are dangerous because the angels are
alert to fight for you.

8. YOUR UNCURSABLE NATURE (Num.23:18, 20)

If God has not cursed you no man’s curse can stay on you.

9. YOU ARE A CO-SHARER OF GOD’S NATURE

In John 3:16, PERISH means to suffer reproach on earth, while
ETERNAL LIFE means the God-kind of life (Zoe). Whoever is born-
again or believes in Him cannot suffer like the people of the world, but
enjoy the indestructible life of God here on earth (Rom.8: 16,17).

10. THE EVER-ABIDING PRESENCE OF GOD (Matt. 28:18-20)

Your progress or success is not in what you can do in yourself, but in who
is with you. Never go to where He will not go with you.

11. THE UNDERSTANDING OF YOUR COUNTRY OF ORIGIN (Jn.3:31)

Your consciousness of your “aboveness” will determine your confidence
in addressing issues on the earth. It will show in the tone of your
commands to the enemy.

12. YOU HAVE LICENSE TO SUPRESS EVIL (Luke 10:19, Gen. 3:15)
If you will use your license to bruise the enemy’s head, he cannot use his
license to bruise your heel.

9
13. YOU ARE THE APPLE OF GOD’S EYE (Zech.2:8)
He that touches you, touches the apple of God’s eye; hence tastes the
wrath of God, for surely God will shake His hand against them and they
shall become spoils for their servants.

14. YOUR STATUS AS A GOD (Exo.7:1)

You are a god to every opposition per time. You ought to be addressing
your challenges as a god. What is from above is above all, hence you are
above every life challenges.

UNDERSTANDING of these truths about yourself is the foundation for

signs and wonders. Whatever you have and do not know about can never
be useful to you.
Now that you know it, put it to use and it will work for you in Jesus
Mighty Name.

10
 LECTURE TWO
LESSON ONE
INITIATION INTO THE REALM OF SIGNS AND WONDERS
Living in itself is a miracle and there are many things that we take for granted
that are miracles in our daily life, like sleeping and rising daily etc.

There is something about contact, touch, joining, connection that initiates you
into the supernatural. All things are sustained by their source of existence, as
long as a plant is connected to the soil, it will remain alive, but if you uproot it,
it will die in a short time. If you remove a fish from the source of it's life i.e.
water, it will die in a short time.

The same applies to the believer. (John 15:1-10).

The tree is the one that has life, the branch draws life from the vine. By your
efforts, you cannot do anything. "...Without me ye can do nothing"
John 15:4,5

A church built on the abiding fellowship with God will flourish. The same for
business and your Christian life.
If you are self-sufficient you can't improve, so keep looking into the Word and
your life will become better.

New birth connects you to power "As many as received Him, to them gave He
power to become the sons of God." John 1:12

It is sons that reflect their father's nature, not children.

Isaiah 9:6 "...Unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given..." Until you receive
sonship you can't manifest sonship. You grow into sonship through exercise of
your faith in God and his words.

A son reflects the very image of the Father.

At that point of new birth, you were initiated, but you many not know it, so you
must grow to understand who you are. Don't trust your feelings, trust God's
Word.

11
Faith is not feelings.
John 3:3-7
"That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is
spirit." BE SPIRIT BORN.

You are a spirit living in the body. You have a supernatural connection with
God.
UNTIL YOU FULLY REALIZE YOUR SPIRITUAL POTENTIALS, YOU
CANNOT MANIFEST THE MIRACULOUS.
"The wind bloweth where it listeth...so is every one that is born of the Spirit."
There are no physical reasons for the supernatural; it is purely in the spirit.
Psalm 82:6, "Your status is that of a god."
Exodus 7:1 "I have made you a god unto Pharaoh"
You are a god unto every opposition and life situations.
Your faith and understanding of who you are determines how much of God’s
power operates in you.
Acts 14:11 "... The gods have come down in the likeness of men." With your
divine nature, you are superior to Satan.
Ephesians 2:6, "You have been lifted above the demons and elemental spirits
that control the earth..
John 3:3, "He that is from above is above ALL."
Ephesians 1:22, "All things have been put under His feet." Since you are a
member of the body, Satan is under your feet.

You are seated with Christ in the heavenly realms above oppression. YOU
SHOULD HAVE AN "ABOVE" MENTALITY DOMINATING YOUR
MIND. YOU MUST SEE YOURSELF AS A GOD. WHEN THEY SEE YOU,
THEY SHOULD SAY, "...THE GODS HAVE COME DOWN..."
DON'T LOOK DOWN ON YOURSELF.
You are created in the image and likeness of God. “until you are in the know
you will be in the flow”

12
 LESSON TWO

CREATING AN ENVIRONMENT FOR SIGNS AND WONDERS

You are the one who determines where God is and how He manifests.

There is an environment where miracles happen cheaply and you can create
such an environment by the following:
FAITH: Faith is the condition for signs and wonders.
Faith is the vital key for unlocking the miraculous. Rom.8:19 "The entire
creation awaits the MANIFESTATION of the sons of God". It is our time and
turn to manifest. John 6:28-29 "What are we to do, to do the works of God?
Jesus replied "The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent."

FAITH IS A WORK. When faith is generated, things happen, work is done.

"These signs shall follow them that BELIEVE..." Mk. 9:22-24 "If you CAN
BELIEVE ..."
"If there is faith" is the condition Jesus gave as necessary for a miracle. "All
things are possible to him that believes..."
Eph. 6:16 "Take the shield of faith"- It is take-able. Faith is take-able, when
confronted by challenges, go or take your shield of faith, by locating the
appropriate scriptures.
Fear is the absence of faith. Where there is anxiety faith is not there. Learn to
Rest in God's power not in yourself. "This is the victory ... even our faith"
1 John 5:4. Trust in the Lord and lean not on your own understanding.

A spiritual man can take and handle spiritual force of FAITH". Faith is a see-
able force"...when Jesus saw their faith"

Faith is an expression of what is in your heart. Take the shield of faith to ward
off all the fiery darts of Satan.
Let your faith create positive changes that attract blessings.
In the church, the environment is charged, so you easily observe miracles
happening. Signs and wonders follow only those with faith. Without faith you
are sign barren. Weeping and crying does not move God. Your feelings or
emotions don’t move God, only your faith does.

13
THE WORD: John 10:34-35. The coming of God's word into you is what
makes you a god to the situations. The word is the creative force of any sign or
wonder. The world was created by the word of God. Every lasting miracle is a
function of unique encounter with the word.

Mark 16:20 "The word is a commander of signs and wonders. The amount of
signs that follow you is an indicator of the amount of God’s word in you. Luke
5:17" ... the power of God was present to heal them".
As Jesus taught, power was released. The word creates an environment or
foundation for miracles to be perpetuated. The word of faith moves God.

BOLD DECLARATION
Until you declare what you believe, God is not committed, you have to also
address the situation for signs to flow Mark 11:23. You also eat the fruit of
your lips as you release the power in the tongue Prov.18: 21 etc.

As you declare it, angels also pick it and go to work, causing your heart desires
concerning that situation to be fulfilled.

14
 LESSON THREE

THE INSTRUMENTS OF SIGNS AND WONDERS

These are supernatural vehicles to carry miracles or that conveys the
supernatural.
The use of these instruments naturally provokes sings and wonders. For
instance, in John 5: 1-4, they were waiting for their miracles, signs and
wonders that depended on the moving or stirring of the water. An angel is the
mover of the water in this case (Jn.5: 1-4). So, the instruments for signs and
wonders can be likened to spiritual rods for the stirring of signs and wonders.
The instruments include: -
1. THE NAME OFJESUS: Isaiah 9:6
“His name shall be called WONDERFUL"
His name is full of wonders. Wonder is the first component of his name,
indicating the ability of the name to produce wonder; every name has ability to
accomplish its meaning. Mark 16:17 "In my name they shall" The name of
Jesus breeds signs and wonders. At the name of Jesus unction for the
manifestation of signs and wonders is released.

The name of Jesus carries the same unction or anointing as Jesus himself, and
can produce the same effect as Jesus himself.
"Thy name is as ointment poured forth" SOS 1:3 “The yoke is broken because
of the anointing". Is.10:27
The use of his name commands his presence (everybody responds to the calling
of his name) Acts 3:6.
Peter said "such as I have, I give unto you, IN THE NAME of Jesus" and the
miracle took place. The name carries the same unction that Jesus carries.
John 14:13 "whatever you ask in my name"
CONDITION FOR THE USE OF THE NAME:
i. The name of Jesus is for the Redeemed: Acts 19. The sons of Sceva were
attacked by demons because they were not redeemed by the blood of Jesus and
hence has no authority to use the name like the redeemed of the Lord
Prov. 18:10 "the name of the Lord is a strong tower, the righteous run into it
and are saved". The name is like a Rod. Elisha sent Gehazi to heal the dead
boy, but Gehazi did not succeed because his heart was not right with God.
The name of Jesus is the rod of Moses in the New Testament that will produce
signs in the presence of every Pharaoh. Just as Moses despised the rod in his
15
hand, so also do many believers today.
ii. The Name is used in faith: Acts 3:16. Until there is faith in your heart, the
name in your mouth doesn't produce anything. The name answers to faith. It
takes faith in the heart to make the name in the mouth to produce signs and
wonders. Psalm 20:11.
It was the name of Jesus in the mouth of little of David (the shepherd boy) that
brought down the head of Goliath (a philistine soldier) and not the stones.
Isam.17:43. Use the name of Jesus as a lifestyle and not only in prayer. Take
the name of Jesus with you everywhere, everyday and anytime.
2. PRAISE:
Praise is giving undiluted recognition to who God is. The realm of praise is the
realm of wonders. A PRAISEFUL life is a WONDERFUL life. Praise is a
supernatural vehicle for the vehicle for signs and wonders.
"God inhabits the praises of His people..." Psalm 22:3. The presence of God
brings miracles. So praise can activate miracle. II Kings 3:15 "... bring me a
minstrel..." the presence of God came upon Elisha as the minstrel played.
The two most profound miracles of Christ happened after praise:
i. John 6: "He lifted up His hands and gave thanks..." and loaves were
multiplied.
ii. John 1:1 "... Father I thank you because you hear me always..." And
Lazarus was raised from the dead.
Praise commands his presence which naturally produces signs and wonders.
Acts 16:25 "... At midnight Paul and Silas praised God..." At the end they were
delivered.
If you will continually praise Him, you will continually carry His presence, and
enjoy his salvation. Learn to create joy out of every situation and
circumstances of life and sa you do praise unto God will well up in your heart..
3. LOVE:
"God is love and he that dwells in love dwells in God" I John 4:16, John 1:1, I
ICor. 13: ; Eph. 5:6 "... the greatest virtue is LOVE". When you operate in
Love, God dwells in you because God is love. As you dwell in God via love,
God dwells in you and that makes you a natural signs and wonder carrier.
Wherever God is, things are bound to happen.
“Your depth of love will determine your height in life” –Bishop Oyedepo
Shedrach, Meshach and Abednego loved God and refused to bow to the graven
image of Nebuchadnezzar. They were thrown in the fiery furnace. But God still
manifested to deliver them. Love must be expressed "God so love that He
gave..." John 3:16
16
 LESSON FOUR
PRODUCTION OF SIGNS & WONDERS
Miracles are not accidents, but are deliberately worked by man via the
ingredients supplied by God. ICor.12:7-11
Many are waiting for God to do what he has already equipped them to do. It is
you that will make your way prosperous (Josh.1:8).
The ingredients supplied by God are:

1. THE WORD OF GOD

The Word of God is the carrier of power for signs and wonders (Rom.1:16;
Jn.1:12). Use the rod and you will produce signs (Exo.4:17).store up the word
in your heart in the area you desire signs (Col.3:16). John Osteen’s wife was
diagnosed of terminal cancer. She was ministered to by Kenneth Hagin, Oral
Roberts and other notable men of faith and was not healed. Six days before she
would die, as speculated by doctors, she sat with the word and assembled 40
scriptures on healing. God pushed the responsibility to her and as she accepted
it, she got her healing.

2. THE MOUTH
The mouth is a gift from God for the production of signs (Lk.21:15). Jn.3:8
everyone born of the spirit is capable of producing effect by sound. It is what
you say that you see. What you cannot say, you cannot see.
Jer.1:4-6, 9 your mouth is the primary requirement for fulfilling your god given
vision and calling. God’s touch on Jeremiah’s mouth made the difference.

Exo.4:10-12, 15 God stayed with Moses mouth, and made him a god to
Pharaoh by confirming his words with signs and wonders. Ask God not to only
touch your mouth, but to be with your mouth.

Signs and wonders are programmed by God to be a daily occurrence in our

lives. Merilyn Sampson said God told her one early morning that “my people
need to believe for the manifestation of the supernatural on a daily basis” her
husband Steve Sampson also said “if our God does only that which is possible
then he is too small” doing the impossible should be our daily experience.

17
 LECTURE THREE
LESSON ONE

MANIFESTATION OF SIGNS AND WONDERS

Signs and wonders are deliberately initiated by man (Mark 16:17). They are not
accidents in nature they are deliberately WORKED. God gave Moses a rod and
it is a type of the name of Jesus. Moses was the one to provoke miracles by
stretching out the Rod; likewise we are responsible for provoking miracles for
our needs.

Obedience to God's Word is what produces miracles (i.e. acting on God's

Word). Joshua 1:8 "... You will make your way prosperous" not God. Read and
meditate on the Word and activate the power by yourself, then miracles will
manifest.

Words are powerful. Spend 15 minutes daily speaking what you want over
your life: WORD THERAPY. The cells in your body will obey you; your
blood will obey you.

Remember Dodie Osteen. She was in terminal illness of cancer given 6 days.
She took 40 healing scriptures and kept speaking it and cancer died. This book
of the Law shall not depart out of your MOUTH!

SOUND PRODUCERS WHO DECLARE THE WORD ARE SIGN

PRODUCERS.
The word is a seed in the heart, but only becomes fruitful when you declare it.
You eat fruit not seed, so declare it. Prov. 18:21 "Death and life are in the
power of the tongue". As you CONFESS it daily, it takes root in your heart and
it starts to MANIFEST.

You have to build up faith. Even God did not do all in one day. FAITH
GROWING IS A PROCESS first the blade, then the ear before the full head.
The supernatural Laws are like natural Laws, KEEP SAYING IT UNTIL YOU
SEE IT. WORK UNTIL IT WORKS!
Spiritual power grows by cultivation. It is work. Now you know how God's
POWER WORKS, Learn to APPLY it.
18
 LESSON TWO

MAINTAINING THE FLOW OF SIGNS AND WONDERS

The miraculous should be a daily occurrence and your life should constantly
manifest signs and wonders.
To maintain the flow you need:

GOD'S PRESENCE: The magnetic force that causes an instantaneous release

of signs and wonders.
It is the life line of signs and wonders.
Acts 10:38 "He went about doing good for God was with Him" John 3:2 "No
man can do these things except God is with Him" You must develop a sweet
intimacy with God, Live in the consciousness of His presence daily.

"I'm not perfect, but I have a perfect heart. Plan a development of your spirit,
soul and body. Christianity is becoming a part of a mysterious body from
where you draw mysterious virtue to live a mysterious life” - Dr. Oyedepo.

PURITY: Purity is the gateway to life in the miraculous.

It is what guarantees the unending manifestation in your life and cause the
power of God to flow unhindered through you.

Spiritual power only have a free flow through sanctified vessels.

2 Tim. 2:19,21 "...depart from iniquity" Ps. 45:6-8
"The scepter of thy Kingdom is a scepter of righteousness"

The spirit of God departed from Samson and he was powerless because Delilah
- a strange woman, corrupted him.
Until sin goes signs never flow or follow (Mark 16:17)
When sin is there God is not there. Isaiah 59:2
Purity is the gateway to kingdom power.

CARRY THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF GOD’S PRESENCE

Matt.28:18-20, Rom.8:31, Mk.16:15-20. As long as you think you are alone
you are limited in what you can do. Knowing who is with you will affect your
confidence in facing challenges. E.g. 2Kings 6:13-18; ISam.17:37; Acts 10:38.

19
The consciousness of God’s abiding presence is the bedrock for signs and
wonders. Panicking in the midst of crisis will disorganize your thinking.
“Until you become immovable you cannot become a mover” – Bishop D.
Oyedepo. If you will move mountains, nothing should move you.

HAVE THE ABILITY TO SEE THE INVISIBLE Heb.11:1, 6-9, 24-27

God can only enforce for you what your eyes can see. It always depends on
how far you can see. You must be able to see the result before the effort – this
is a major characteristic of every man of exploits. David saw Goliath dead
before he confronted him and defeated him.

Every man of exploits walks by faith and not by sight. Peter was so sure and
already saw the lame man at the beautiful gate walking before commanding
him to rise up in the name of Jesus; and went ahead to pull him up. Anytime
you minister signs and wonders, you must help the people see the results.

BOLDNESS
To be bold is to have a courageous heart. It is not a virtue of the fact but of the
heart. It is to have a resolute heart that is unyielding to pressure. It is an
assurance of the spirit based on scriptural truth.

FEAR is the opposite of boldness, and will terminate your walk in the realm of
signs and wonders. Acts 4:29, 30-33, 9:29, 19:8, 28:31 Signs and Wonders
respond to boldness. “Without a heart you cannot make a mark” – papa.
You cannot take Canaan without a fight. There is no Canaan without a giant,
so you must be ready to confront them. No man can stop a man of boldness.

SPIRITUAL MINDEDNESS
Rom.8: 6 this means being sensitive to the leadings of the Holy Spirit all the
time. “Who says and it comes to pass when God has not commanded it” no
matter how bold you speak, if God has not commanded it you cannot see signs
and wonders e.g. Ezek.37: 1-10

The Holy Ghost is the personality behind every sign and wonder. A sensitive
heart is your greatest asset in the school of signs and wonders. Jesus used
different methods for the same sickness depending on the leading of the Spirit.
Knowing how to move and when to move by the Spirit makes you like an
expert.
20
One way to develop sensitivity to the Holy Ghost is to pray in the Holy Ghost
regularly (Jude 20). Kenneth Hagin said when he was 50 years in ministry that
his secrets of success in ministry are praying in the Holy Ghost and obeying
God.

GRATITUDE TO GOD (Ps.67:5-7)

You must always give God all the glory. Every marvelous thing is an act of the
marvelous God, so you must always give him thanks.

Stay Away From Sin: 2 Tim 2:19-21

Sin has pleasure for a season. After pleasure comes PRESSURE.

Watch The Company You Keep: Evil communication corrupt good manners (1
Cor. 15:33). MIND YOUR FRIEND. He that walks with the wise shall be
wise, but the company of fools shall be destroyed (Prov. 13:20). People who
DON'T BELIEVE what you believe CANNOT be GOOD friends. Destroy the
friendship before it destroys you! (Ps.l).

Don't Be Carnally Minded: Romans 8:5-8

Think like God and take pleasure in the things of God.

Don't Be Disobedient To God's Word: Learn to keep the Word of God.
