Admin	True Story About the Gift of The Holy Ghost Posted : 28 Dec, 2011 06:43 PM A young man invited a Spirit filled minister to his church because his pastor was Going to teach on how tongues was not scriptural. This Pastor accepted the young man's invitation and had prayed about going and while in the service had been praying in tongues for the minister that was going to explain how tongues was wrong. The minister got up to talk and as he started to talk he started stumbling all over himself and ultimately had to sit down he could not talk. The next service the man got up in front of the congretation and ask their forgivesness for what he had said concerning tongues and he realized the lord had mercy on him anf shut him up because he was trying to talk on a ubject he nothing about and had no business saying anything, he was not aware of the other pastor in the church praying for him in other tongues. It will bring great shame upon those that have caused others to stumble on this matter because of their hardness of heart. Post Reply

I am not sure i may be wrong! But one things for sure is that people cant grasp it with their carnal minds so they try to explain it away as us being led by our emotions and so on and so forth! it is pure doubt and unbeliefge! If Jesus can die and be reserected and make atonement for our sind, not to mention walk on water calm the seas with his hands and speaking to them and spit in some dirt and rub it in a blind mans eyes then he most certainly can send us the Holy Ghost who can most certainly give us a prayer language , besides it makes perfect sence, we are imperfect in everything we do, including prayer so God sent the Holy Spirit to do the things we cant do, like proclaim the gospel boldly , and pray the right way for the right things Post Reply

View Profile History	True Story About the Gift of The Holy Ghost Posted : 28 Dec, 2011 07:32 PM It is actually philoshpy which you comment from, it is faith that cometh from hearing the word of God that pleases God, from those that receive the word of God, it is nothing new for those that convey themselves as nothing the truth yet in total denial. Any Christian has the ability within them to know if it is true or not. It is the same spirit that knows if a man has rejected him or not. Post Reply

The word says that the message of the cross is foolishness to those that are perishing (the non-believer) and they do not accept it not that they don't understand it, sister. They don't understand the spiritual ramifications of this as all in Christ do. It's in 1 Corinthians, I believe. :) Post Reply
elishabroadway View Profile History	True Story About the Gift of The Holy Ghost Posted : 28 Dec, 2011 07:54 PM thank you agapeton as I really was not sure, however it does say that I am sure of that carnal men can not understand spirtual things, maybe not those words exactly but thats what it says! I do know that people can not except that people speak in tounges as the spirit gives them uterance because they have doubts! They doubt it, and no matter what I or anyone else says they will continue to doubt it , I personly think many people dont want to believe its true becaseu they are afraid they will feel or look stupid to other people! I felt that way sometimes the devil still trys to make me feel foolish! SO WE KNOW HE IS A LIAR!! whatever satan says the opposit is the truth! Post Reply

ME: You are welcome, sister. The Scriptures clearly say that the non-believer does not accept the things of God because it the cross is foolishness to him (1 Cor. 1:8) and that he is spiritually blind to them (1 Cor. 2:14). BUT believers in Christ understand these things because we have received the Spirit of God. 1 Corinthians 2:9-14 ESV . 1Co 2:9 But, as it is written, "What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him"-- 1Co 2:10 these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God. 1Co 2:11 For who knows a person's thoughts except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. 1Co 2:12 Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God. 1Co 2:13 And we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual. 1Co 2:14 The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.

The bible was not written to people that had not received the Holy Spirit. All born again have a measure of the holy spirit in the new birth but when you speak of the spirit of truth you are talking of thaT, THAT WAS REVEALED IN ACTS 2:4 Post Reply

A LOT. You seem to base your whole ideology and theology on Acts 2:4 for some reason because you mention it in several topics and even proceed to make other topics regarding this. One could almost think that this is a denominational fixation of some sort. That alone shows personal bias and selective adherence of Scripture. If I am wrong please forgive me, but i will still be praying for you none the less, brother. :peace: Post Reply
elishabroadway View Profile History	True Story About the Gift of The Holy Ghost Posted : 28 Dec, 2011 09:16 PM yes agapatna lot of full gospels charismatics and pentecostals like acts chapter 2 and they quote it, but there are many other scriptures that to me confirm what I believe, now that being said all the denominations have littlw scriptures they like to throw around to prove their doctrine, like predestination, romans 9!!! the babtist hgave one too I cant think of it right now, I want to say that I think its ok for us to have these debates and dig deeper into scriptures and gain understanding but we must not get caught up in doctrine as it is not what saves us and whether or not we agree does not determine whether or not we are brother and siste, we most certainly can br wrong about something and still be save and thats what matters There are some who think James and Donna may not be saved (maybe not them specificly but those who believe as they do that they were elected and had no choice) Me I think it dont matter whether or not we had a choice to repent and turn to the Lord or had no choice what matters is we did it and that makse us brothers and sisters! SO cant we all just get along:ROFL::ROFL: Post Reply
