1 | Being filled w/ the Spirit mean tongues? | Acts 2:4 | lionheart | 148603 | ||
Steve, Greetings brother.People cause themselves no end of controversey and confusion because they dont exercise basic principles of biblestudy. There was a reason in Acts 2:4 for God working things the way he did.The speaking in tongues was evidence to the people that Peter and the Apostles were of God,that what they doing was divinely empowered.God could have just as easily did this in private but that would have meant nothing to anyone else but the apostles.People had to have irrefutable evidence and pentecost was that evidence.Now with that said we can go to Acts 2:38 it cleary states that we recieve the Holy Spirit at salvation.We have no more or less of Gods Spirit now than we recieved at salvation. God did the whole job then and continues work shape and mold our character as we seek to walk with Him and live his Word daily.I'ts simple,not always easy but simple. Keep pitching bro, lionheart |

Thanx bro, In reference to post 148606. In (1Corinthians 12:7-12) Paul references the manifestations of Gods Spirit or gifts as some may refer them as. Understanding when Paul wrote this and to whom and why becomes vital to our understanding of them today. (1Corinthians 13:8-10) I've heard several different views of this passage I have a clue where this is going but my understanding here isnt rock solid,maybe you could expand a little on this. In Christ, lionheart |
