2 | HS manifestation needed for salvation? | Eph 1:13 | Haggisheid | 27710 | ||
Hi Nolan, I have friends in Gary Indiana. Nice to hear from you. Last week with my Bible Study class for teenagers we were looking at the seal of the Holy Spirit. I used the example of wax seals on letters and official certificates and also cattle brands to illustrate the fact that the seal is for identifying the ownership of the sealed object to others. Also from "sealed" there is the idea that we are kept secure until redemption. The Eph 1:13-14 verses mentions the holy spirit of promise, the promise was given in joel chapter 2. Notice the mention of the pledge or deposit as well, this indicates I think that the seal is a part payment of greater spiritual fullness to come later. By fullness I mean the concept of us yielding more of ourselves to the Spirit and allowing ourselves to be controlled by the Spirit rather than God filling us us as if we are containers. Thanks for replying I hope you have a peaceful christmas. Charis, I was wondering why you were asking the question? What is on your mind? Regards Haggisheid |
