This eight-part training series takes you through the key biblical principles you need to know so that you can walk in the truth, and be aware of the techniques satan uses to seek to deceive people. Ideal for personal or group study. You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free!


We start with the same training that checkout clerks receive when they are being trained to spot counterfeit $20 bills. They don’t spend any time studying counterfeit bills. All their training is on examining the true $20 bill. So rather than focusing on error, we will focus on examining truth.

We will answer Pilates' question to Jesus: “What is truth?” We will explore the biblical steps to acquiring truth, along with the question “How do I know if I have truth?” We will answer the question, “Is truth a what or a Who?”

We will explore walking on God’s Highway of Holiness and how to avoid falling into either ditch: The ditch of phariseeism or the ditch of the New Age movement.  How did Jesus succeed in walking on God’s Highway of Holiness when the Pharisees failed? They both loved the Word. However, Jesus was doing something that the Pharisees were not doing. What was it? Let’s make sure we are doing that!

What is a heretic? How do I decide if a person is a heretic? How often does the word “heretic” show up in the NT? How am I to respond if someone calls me a heretic? Is it OK for me to be a heresy hunter?  Can I define biblically the differences between a heretic, a false teacher, and a true teacher?

Our final topic will be how one walks in the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Jesus healed the sick and taught them as one having authority. Do I know the biblically stated three keys to releasing the anointing of the Holy Spirit? Am I walking comfortably in them? Can I define the anointing simply, easily, practically, and biblically, making it possible for me to train others to walk and live in the anointing? We will show that these three keys were not present when Jesus ministered in His hometown, and thus Jesus could do no miracle there. Being anointed releases revival to the world! People are hungry for revival. Let’s you and I provide it.

Testimonies from some who have received this training

Lynne decides to LOVE new challenges

Mark stated: "The key to anointing in any area is faith energized by love. God's anointing does not ride on the waves of hate and fear." This perspective has made me look at unpleasant situations in a completely different light. When I am asked to do something that I don't like doing or think I'm not good at, I stop and say to myself instead, "I love this new challenge" or, "I am blessed by this task." When I approach all areas of my life with an attitude of love and excitement, I see the Lord's hand at work. This has been an amazing revelation for me.

 

Kristie discovered new ways to combine the Bible and the Spirit

I loved the focus on the harmony of using both the logos and rhema of God's Word for greater intimacy during our communion with Him! Dr. Virkler provided great opportunities for us to practice interacting with both!

 

Naomi now seeks truth from a joyful place of rest, not striving

Dr. Virkler reminded us of the beautiful harmony of honoring God’s Word through Holy Spirit revelation. I came away feeling encouraged to keep seeking truth from a place of joyful rest, not striving and self-effort.

 

Abigail learns to embrace the biblical word “meditation”

The discussion regarding biblical meditation was liberating for me. The way the world defined it made me avoid it. My new biblical definition of meditation, which includes hearing God’s voice, changes the way I receive from the Word of God.

 

Rebecca discovers she can love motherhood

Mark stated that hating something stops the flow of God for him to prosper in that area. But once he asks God to help him love it, he can flourish in whatever it is. That stuck with me because I tend to think that I hate motherhood. God is changing my heart from hating motherhood to putting love in my heart for it. This is changing me. The biggest difference is how much more peace I have. I no longer need to make sure every offense gets consequences for it. I feel I am more on my children’s team instead of being a dictator who is enforcing rules and orders all day.

Imagine That eBook

Imagine That eBook

by Rev. Jimmy D. Smith | 85 Pages

Beginning sometime around my 72nd year, my imagination really started to wake up again.  I was reading Dialogue with God, by Mark and Patti Virkler, when wheels began to turn.  In the weeks that followed I decided that this was a “do” book, not just a “read to learn” book. I began to do what the book suggested. Somewhere along the line I felt that the Lord gave me permission to experience the freedom of using my imagination to worship Him, to talk to Him, and more importantly to hear from Him.
