Derek Prince, one of the most admired teacher of the Word of God, explained in this video about the possibility of having both the Holy Spirit and another spirit that is not of God in the life of a Christian believer. It’s a bit of a controversial issue if we think that because the Holy Spirit is holy, and therefore, He cannot co-exist with an unclean spirit. Derek Prince quoted to scriptures that somehow describe this situation: First, Deuteronomy 22:9 which says: “You shall not sow your vineyard with different kinds of seed, lest the yield of the seed which you have sown and the fruit of your vineyard be defiled.” And second, Deuteronomy 22:9 which says: ““You shall not wear a garment of different sorts, such as wool and linen mixed together.”
“I am the First and the Last. I am the Living One; I was dead, and behold I am alive for ever and ever!” —Revelation 1:17-18
It’s really good to listen to Biblical explanations in the point of view of theologians whose ministry is about explaining difficult questions regarding our Christian faith. One of the questions that is commonly asked by other religions like Muslims, Buddhists, and even Atheists is this: Where in the Bible Does Jesus Actually Say He is God? Michael Ramsden, International Director of the Ravi Zacharias International Ministries, answers and expound this topic. His main focus is Psalm 23. Watch the video below to learn Biblical scriptures and principles about this topic.
The Lord the Shepherd of His People
A Psalm of David.
23 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not [a]want. 2 He makes me to lie down in [b]green pastures; He leads me beside the [c]still waters. 3 He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will [d]dwell in the house of the Lord [e]Forever.

Chinese Churches Compared American
“You guys rode a train for 13 hours to get here. In my country, if you’ve got to drive more than an hour, people don’t come. You sat on a wooden floor for three days. In my country, if people have to sit more than 40 minutes, they leave. You sat not only here for three days on a hard wooden floor, but you did it without air conditioning. In my country, if it’s not padded pews and air conditioning, people don’t often come back,” he continued. “In my country, we have an average of two Bibles per family. We don’t read any of them. You hardly have any Bibles, and you memorize them from pieces of paper.” – Pastor Wayne Cordeiro
