1. Questions About God, Jesus, Holy Spirit, Christian Belief and The World with Biblical Spirit-Led Answers – Questions, More Questions Begging For Spirit-Led Answers By Online Seekers and Genuine Christians

1 Peter 3:15 – Amp

But in your hearts set Christ apart [as holy—acknowledging Him, giving Him first place in your lives] as Lord. Always be ready to give a {Logical} defense to anyone who asks you to account for the hope and confident assurance [elicited by faith] that is within you, yet [do it] with gentleness and respect.

2 Timothy 2:15-21 Amplified Bible (AMP)

¹⁵ Study and do your best to present yourself to God approved, a workman [tested by trial] who has no reason to be ashamed, accurately handling and skillfully teaching the word of truth. 16 But avoid all irreverent babble and godless chatter [with its profane, empty words], for it will lead to further ungodliness, 17 and their teaching will spread like gangrene. So it is with Hymenaeus and Philetus, 18 who have deviated from the truth. They claim that the resurrection has already taken place, and they undermine the faith of some. ¹⁹ Nevertheless, the firm foundation of God [which He has laid] stands [sure and unshaken despite attacks], bearing this seal: “The Lord knows those who are His,” and, “Let everyone who names the name of the Lord stand apart from wickedness and withdraw from wrongdoing.”

²⁰ Now in a large house, there are not only ^[a]vessels and objects of gold and silver, but also vessels and objects of wood and of earthenware, and some are for honorable (noble, good) use and some for dishonorable (ignoble, common). ²¹ Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from these things [ which are dishonorable—disobedient, sinful ], he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified [set apart for a special purpose and], useful to the Master, prepared for every good work.

INTRODUCTION: Over the course of the year, we have research questions that are bugging people’s minds using an online research tool called Answer The Publics. This tool provided thousands of data in granular details from all search engines around the world which we have provided biblical answers that are spirit-led by our selected team of over 500 Spirit-Led individuals drawn from the body of Christ for your use – 2 Timothy 2: 15-20.

Jesus was inundated by people of His day with questions that He willingly answered. Except in a few cases where He either kept mute or responded with questions. Read Acts 1:4-8, Matthew 21:23-27, Matthew 16:1-4, Mark 14:61; John 8:6-8

Our Passion at Otakada.org is to see and work towards the body of Christ seeing and working with each other as one. Some of the questions are hot boiling questions that have plagued the body of Christ since God knows how long. Even within the same denominations, silent divisions are prevalent. We hope and pray that some answers here will go towards bridging the gap as we trust that we will still go into our closet and ask the Holy Spirit to lead us into all truth to help bring clarity to contentious questions/answers. Read John 17:20-22 and Ephesians 4: 3-7, 12-16 as follows:

John 17:20-22

²⁰ “I do not pray for these alone [it is not for their sake only that I make this request], but also for [all] those who [will ever] believe and trust in Me through their message, ²¹ that they all may be one; just as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be one in Us, so that the world may believe [without any doubt] that You sent Me.²² I have given to them the glory and honor which You have given Me, that they may be one, just as We are one;

Ephesians 4:3-7,12-16

³ Make every effort to keep the oneness of the Spirit in the bond of peace [ each individual working together to make the whole successful ]. ⁴ There is one body [of believers] and one Spirit—just as you were called to one hope when called [to salvation]— ⁵ one Lord, one faith, one baptism, ⁶ one God and Father of us all who is [sovereign] over all and [working] through all and [living] in all.

⁷ Yet grace [God’s undeserved favor] was given to each one of us [not indiscriminately, but in different ways] in proportion to the measure of Christ’s [rich and abundant] gift.

¹² [and He did this] to fully equip and perfect the saints (God’s people) for works of service, to build up the body of Christ [the church]; ¹³ until we all reach oneness in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God, [growing spiritually] to become a mature believer, reaching to the measure of the fullness of Christ [manifesting His spiritual completeness and exercising our spiritual gifts in unity]. 14 So that we are no longer children [spiritually immature], tossed back and forth [like ships on a stormy sea] and carried about by every wind of [ shifting ] doctrine, by the cunning and trickery of [unscrupulous] men, by the deceitful scheming of people ready to do anything [for personal profit]. ¹⁵ But speaking the truth in love [in all things—both our speech and our lives expressing His truth], let us grow up in all things into Him [following His example] who is the Head—Christ. ¹⁶ From Him the whole body [the church, in all its various parts], joined and knitted firmly together by what every joint supplies, when each part is working properly, causes the body to grow and mature, building itself up in [unselfish] love.

2) School of the Spirit and Ministry Training Sessions

Luke 4:18-20 AMP

¹⁸ 
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me (the Messiah),
Because He has anointed Me to preach the good news to the poor.
He has sent Me to announce release (pardon, forgiveness) to the captives,
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set free those who are oppressed (downtrodden, bruised, crushed by tragedy),
¹⁹ 
to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord [the day when salvation and the favor of God abound greatly].”

²⁰ Then He rolled up the scroll [having stopped in the middle of the verse], gave it back to the attendant and sat down [to teach]; and the eyes of all those in the synagogue were [attentively] fixed on Him.

1 Samuel 3: 1-14

Now the boy Samuel was attending to the service of the Lord under the supervision of Eli. The word of the Lord was rare and precious in those days; visions [that is, new revelations of divine truth] were not widespread….⁸ So the Lord called Samuel a third time. And he stood and went to Eli and said, “Here I am, for you did call me.” Then Eli understood that it was the Lord [who was] calling the boy. ⁹ So Eli said to Samuel, “Go, lie down, and it shall be that if He calls you, you shall say, ‘Speak, Lord, for Your servant is listening.’” So Samuel went and lay down in his place….14

2 Kings 6:16-17

¹⁶ Elisha answered, “Do not be afraid, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” ¹⁷ Then Elisha prayed and said, “Lord, please, open his eyes that he may see.” And the Lord opened the servant’s eyes and he saw; and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire surrounding Elisha.

Acts 10: 9-16

⁹ The next day, as they were on their way and were approaching the city, Peter went up on the roof of the house about the sixth hour (noon) to pray, ¹⁰ but he became hungry and wanted something to eat. While the meal was being prepared he fell into a trance; ¹¹ and he saw the sky opened up, and an object like a great sheet descending, lowered by its four corners to the earth, ¹² and it contained all kinds of four-footed animals and crawling creatures of the earth and birds of the air. ¹³ A voice came to him, “Get up, Peter, kill and eat!” ¹⁴ But Peter said, “Not at all, Lord, for I have never eaten anything that is common (unholy) and [ceremonially] unclean.” ¹⁵ And the voice came to him a second time, “What God has cleansed and pronounced clean, no longer consider common (unholy).” ¹⁶ This happened three times, and then immediately the object was taken up into heaven.

INTRODUCTION: The work the Lord Jesus Christ has commissioned us into is a spiritual one. To carry out the work effectively, our spiritual antennas need to be sensitive and pointed or tuned to the right frequency to hear, see, perceive what the Holy Spirit is saying to the churches. Not what He said but what He is saying right now. This is what will bring deliverance to the captives of satan, the opening of eyes for the blind and preaching spirit-led messages to His people. This session will help you get tuned in the realm of the spirit to do supernatural work for the master and live a fulfilling Christian life. Stay tuned

3) Ministry Gift Identification and Activation Training Sessions

2 Timothy 1: 5-7

⁵ I remember your sincere and unqualified faith [the surrendering of your entire self to God in Christ with confident trust in His power, wisdom and goodness, a faith] which first lived in [the heart of] your grandmother Lois and your mother Eunice, and I am confident that it is in you as well. 6 That is why I remind you to [a]fan into flame the gracious gift of God, [that inner fire—the special endowment] which is in you through the laying on of my hands [with those of the elders at your ordination]. ⁷ For God did not give us a spirit of timidity or cowardice or fear, but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of sound judgment and personal discipline [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control].

1 Corinthians 12: 1-31

1….¹¹ All these things [the gifts, the achievements, the abilities, the empowering] are brought about by one and the same [Holy] Spirit, distributing to each one individually just as He chooses.¹² For just as the body is one and yet has many parts, and all the parts, though many, form [only] one body, so it is with Christ. ¹³ For by one [Holy] Spirit we were all baptized into one body, [spiritually transformed—united together] whether Jews or Greeks (Gentiles), slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of one [Holy] Spirit [since the same Holy Spirit fills each life]….31..

Luke 4:18-20

¹⁸ 
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me (the Messiah),
Because He has anointed Me to preach the good news to the poor.
He has sent Me to announce release (pardon, forgiveness) to the captives,
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set free those who are oppressed (downtrodden, bruised, crushed by tragedy),
¹⁹ 
to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord [the day when salvation and the favor of God abound greatly].”

²⁰ Then He rolled up the scroll [having stopped in the middle of the verse], gave it back to the attendant and sat down [to teach]; and the eyes of all those in the synagogue were [attentively] fixed on Him.

INTRODUCTION: Every believer was endowed with a or some of the spiritual gifts at the point of conversion. Some or all of the gift remain unwrapped as a result of lack of knowledge, demand for the gift as a result of misplaced priorities and several other reasons. We will work you through this session to activating these gifts for the work of ministry, equipping and edification of the saints. The assigning of making disciples of all nations as stated in Mark 16: 15-20 with signs and wonders following. Standby for these sessions

Have a blessed and prosperous week and year 2020 in Him!
