Sunday 3 July 2016 Sanctuary, 8.30am & 5pm ACS Auditorium, 10.30am

Reflective Verse For who knows a person’s thoughts except their own spirit within them? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. What we have received is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us. 1 Cor 2:11-12 Reflective Question In what ways has God’s Holy Spirit who is within you, revealed God’s thoughts and heart to you?
