Hi, Searcher... Be careful here because you may be getting into areas of discussion that the forum guidelines discourage. But since you brought it up: We can "use" the Holy Spirit? On what Scripture do you base our "use" of any member of the God-head? In Him, Doc |

3 | Who or what is the (s)Spirit? | John 3:34 | Searcher56 | 147637 | ||
Scripture ... Acts 4:8, 31, 6:3, 5, 7:55, 9:17, 11:24, 13:9, 52; Eph 5:18 ... It may be better stated let the Spirit use us. I see sometimes there is a need to be filled, with to view that one was not. Some are always full of the Spirit ... He has full use of that person. Alas, methinks most of us struggle (Rom 7:14ff) and need another filling. Searcher |

4 | Who or what is the (s)Spirit? | John 3:34 | Ray | 147697 | ||
Hi Searcher, I am glad that others have told you that we do not use God. But I think that it is important to note also that God does not "use" us either in the sense of controlling us. The triune God leads us and teaches us, but He does not control us. As far as my question is concerned, that is, how many nouns and pronouns are in John 3:34; it is important to look at the sixth possible occurance (KJ, unto him). So the question now is, does God give the Spirit unto Him or to us? And in the context of verse 34a, who or what is the Spirit? From the heart, Ray |
