Harvest Church

Built into the Foundations

This week we come to the final cessationist argument regarding the offices of Apostle and Prophet.  Does their argument that these offices, and the supernatural gifts with them, necessarily ceased at the founding of the first church 2000 years ago, hold any merit in light of what the scriptures say about them?  Tune in and find out.  

Face to Face

If the bible is so clear in exclaiming that the promise of the Holy Spirit (in-dwelling & baptism) are for today, then why do so many still claim otherwise?  This week, we investigate the crowning verse of the doctrine of Cessationism, 1 Cor. 13:8

All Who Are FarOff

Cessationists want us to believe that the baptism and gifts of the Holy Spirit ended with the first century church and aren't available today, but God said clearly that this gift was available to all who would call upon the name of Jesus for salvation.  

The Last Days

We are living in the time of fulfillment of both what Moses declared in the book of Numbers and what Peter declared in Acts when he quoted Joel 2....that all would prophesy.  Join me this week as I outline just how long the bible says this season will last.  

The Kingdom is Power

1 Cor. 4:20 tells us that the kingdom of God does not consist of words, but in power.  Jesus said that we would preach the gospel of the kingdom to the ends of the earth and that this would actually be tied to His return.  How could we be commissioned by Christ to preach a gospel that is defined by power and yet not have access to that power?  

Your Kingdom Come

Did you know that Jesus said that we would preach the gospel of the kingdom to all of the earth prior to His second coming?  Have you ever wondered what that was?  Well, we better find out, since we are the ones who are supposed to preach it!  Tune in for this week's podcast as Ps. Shawn breaks down this reality and this "gospel" that is so closely tied to the return of Christ.  

Holy Spirit Activity in the Old Testament

After a couple of weeks of excavating truths from the history of revival, we now begin the journey of assessing what the scriptures have to say about the activity of the Holy Spirit and His gifts and their relevance for our lives today.

1900's Revivalists

This week Pastor Shawn Benson investigates some of the history of early 1900's revivalists Mariah Woodworth-Etter, Smith Wigglesworth, and John G. Lake, and suggests that this history demands something of us.  We can't remain neutral when we hear verified firsthand accounts from history that describe God moving in power.  Either the accounts are true or every revival in American history has had a massive and highly successful conspiracy aimed at deceiving the body into believing that God was still moving.  It is impossible to remain a cessationist in light of the overwhelming evidence to the contrary!  

Revival From Wales to LA

This week Pastor Shawn introduces the Welsh and Azusa Street revivals suggesting that they are connected and the events in that day seem to echo the events in ours.  Race issues, an out of control virus, and social reform mark this season in early 1900 just like they mark us today in 2020.

Do it Again Like Cane Ridge

This week Pastor Shawn shares about the revival in Cane Ridge Kentucky that sparked the 2nd Great Awakening and how the manifestations present in this revival look very much the same to what we have seen in modern day.
