Holy Spirit Empowerment INTRO
Alliance Core Values – Session 7 (1 Corinthians 2:4–5)
November 2011
United States
3:27
This introductory clip can be used to start each session or provide a sneak peak of the next session in the series. The Apostle Paul said, “My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, so that your faith might not rest on men’s wisdom, but on God’s power.” We believe this is the fiber of our being. Without the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, we can accomplish nothing.
