The Spirit of Sonship: Experiencing God as Father Bruce Coyle - Eleos Centre Ministries, Nelson BC
“Because you are sons, God sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your Hearts crying, Abba! Father!” (Galations 4:6)
James Jordan from Father Heart Ministries talks about the many blockages to someone receiving God as Father. One of the major blockages is that many of us have had wounding from our earthly Dads. As Christians, we are receiving the Spirit of Sonship through the Holy Spirit, but it has no expression in us when we closed our Hearts to being a son or daughters in the physical world. We may experience the Holy Spirit in other ways but not as the Spirit of Sonship When we closed our a hearts to our natural parents it becomes a complete block to knowing God as Father to you. This is because God is Father; therefore the only way we can relate to Him is as Father. If we have closed our hearts to our earthly fathers there is no connection for us and God the Father. Some of the wounding we have had from our earthly father can be great and difficult to overcome, especially where a father has abused or abandoned someone as a child. Obviously, forgiveness from the heart is the important key to ‘pave the way’ to receiving the Spirit of Sonship. Forgiveness is a whole other teaching in itself which I will not go into now. When we are able to restore our hearts as sons and daughters we now have a place where God can pour out His Fathering Love like an ocean into us and we begin to experience Him as Father. As James Jordan says, “the same principle applies when we think of Jesus as our Lord. If we want to have a relationship with Jesus we have to make him Lord starts at 11am of our Life. You Dan Nelson is speaking on can have a touch “Interdimentionals and Extraterrestrials” of Jesus in your life; an experience; Any questions? Contact 250-354-5394 a momentary 905 Gordon Rd visitation with Jesus, (IHA Bldg., back door) even experiencing a miracle but there is no continual Anglican Church of Canada relationship with St. Saviour's ProCathedral him until you have Ward & Silica, Nelson Family Service & Eucharist made Him Lord of Sunday 10:30 am your Life.

Endless Adventure and Borderline Boaters are presenting the Kootenay Whitewater Festival in Crescent Valley on the June 22-23 weekend. The festival offers a variety of clinics for beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels of paddling, along with dryland games, a Nelson Brewing Company-sponsored happy hour, and live night-time entertainment featuring Shane Phillips and Roy Has Fire.

Throw in the awesome prizes, auction items, free camping, and you have one fantastic weekend in the Kootenays. The clinics throughout the weekend will be led by a certified instructor, and offered at a low additional cost. Suited for both beginner and intermediate paddlers, they include: Beginner Basic Skills, Intermediate Playboating, and Advanced Creeking. Other highlights include the legendary Boatercross, a free SUP clinic, and river running missions down the Slocan and Salmo Rivers, and perhaps some other Kootenay river gems.
