THE KIND OF CHRISTIAN THAT GIVES REFRESHING SPIRIT INSIDE THE LOCAL CHURCH.
* Refresh-: to restore strength and to REVIVE . To give
encouragement.
(
Romans 15:29-33 )
29 And I
am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing
of the gospel of Christ.
30 Now I
beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for the love of
the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to God for me;
31 That I
may be delivered from them that do not believe in Judaea; and that my service
which I have for Jerusalem may be accepted of the saints;
32 That I
may come unto you with joy by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed.
33 Now the
God of peace be with you all. Amen.

8 Or he
that exhorteth, on exhortation: he that giveth, let him do it with simplicity;
he that ruleth, with diligence; he that sheweth mercy, with cheerfulness.
9 Let love
be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is
good.

churches of Macedonia;
2 How that
in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep
poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality.
3 For to
their power, I bear record, yea, and beyond their power they were willing of
themselves;
4 Praying
us with much intreaty that we would receive the gift, and take upon us the
