How did today's Christians receive the Spirit of Christ dwelling in them (Rm 8:9) w/o being baptized into One Spirit (I Cor 12:13) ?
"The Spirit of Christ" gives (((POWER))) [Acts 1:8] Who "QUICKENS" (I Cor 15:45) our "DEAD spirits" (Romans 5:12-14; I Corinthians 15:21-22) "back to life" (Ephesians 2:1)
When "Jesus baptizes us with the Holy Ghost" (John 1:33; Acts 1:5) as we are "baptized into One Spirit" (I Corinthians 12:13).
We can "CONFIRM that the LORD is working with us" (Mark 16:20)
By His (((POWER))) received after Holy Spirit baptism from the "Spiritual gifts" received (I Corinthians 12:7-10) and the "Signs following" (Mark 16:17-18).
How is it that MOST of today's Christians have NO POWER [Acts 1:5;8] NO SPIRITUAL GIFTS [I Corinthians 12:7-10] and NO SIGNS FOLLOWING [Mark 16:17-18]
To (((PROVE))) with the (((PROOF))) Jesus has given us yet CLAIM "the Spirit of God dwells in them" (Romans 8:9)?
@CULT
"But to do good and to communicate (((FORGET NOT:))) for with such sacrifices God is well pleased" (Hebrews 13:16).
@Pearl
Without Jesus' (((PROOF))) you don't have NOTHING!
Go back and read the updates!
@Rod
"Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? " (I Corinthians 12:29-30).
"He whom GOD has (((SENT))) [Romans 10:14-15] the SPIRIT is given him without measure" (John 3:34).
Therefore if it's GOD's will for one (((SENT))) to be a witness unto Him of His (((POWER))) [Acts 1:8] "the Spirit is given him without measure" (John 3:34).
Such was the case with an unbelieving Baptist friend of mine when "the Spirit was given me without measure" when in her presence I laid hands on one and they received the Gift of the Holy Ghost "by His Spirit" (Zechariah 4:6) working (((through me))) (Isaiah 42:6-7; GNT)!
GOD (((PROVES))) Himself (John 10:37-38) to unbelievers when it's (((HIS WILL))) (Daniel 4:35).
Don't believe the hype (II Corinthians 11:3-4) of the misinterpretation of Scripture
When Paul "took up a serpent" in Acts 28:3 that says
"And when Paul had gathered together a bundle of sticks, and had laid them on the fire, a viper coming out of the heat, fastened on his hand."
Rod if "prophecies fail" Joel 2:28; Acts 2:17; 39; I Corinthians 12:28; Ephesians 4:11 would be A LIE!
If "tongues cease" Isaiah 28:11, Acts 2:4; 39; I Corinthians 12:10; and Chapter 14 would all be A LIE!
If "knowledge vanishes away" Daniel 12:4, Isaiah 11:9 and I Corinthians 12:8 would be A LIE!
Therefore catholics misassembled their 'book' to have mankind believe the (((POWER OF GOD))) who gives these "Spiritual gifts" (I Corinthians 12:7-10) ***HAVE CEASED*** (II Timothy 3:5-7).
You said
"(1Tim 5:23) Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy STOMACHS sake and thine INFIRMITIES."
I Corinthians 12:30 "Do all have the gift of healing?"
"(2Tim 4:20)..Trophimus have I left at Miletum SICK" GOD gives us the "Spiritual gift" of "discerning of spirit" (I Corinthians 12:10) and tells us who is necessary for the fulfillment of our trips.
YOU'VE "concluded" WRONG (II Peter 1:20-21).
"Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and for ever" (Hebrews 13:8).
"Search the scriptures; for in them ye (((THINK))) ye have eternal life: and they are they which [only] testify of Me" (John 5:39)!
.
"How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent?" (Romans 10:14-15)!
@G
Yet you claim "God" with a capital G no less who has ALL wisdom?
