1 | Filled with Holy Spirit? | Eph 4:23 | Ray | 150276 | ||
Hi Tim, There is a difference between "indwelling" and "dwelling". The Holy Spirit indwells us. We are filled with the holy spirit. Job 33:4, "The *Spirit of God/ has made me, And the breath of the Almighty gives me life." Revelation 11:11, "...the breath of life from *God came into them..." Job 34:14b, "...If **He should gather to Himself/ His (s)Spirit and His breath, All flesh would perish together, and man would return to dust." From the heart, Ray |

2 | Filled with Holy Spirit? | Eph 4:23 | Morant61 | 150282 | ||
Greetings Ray! First of all, if I have understood your position correctly, you are concerned that one could not be 'filled' with the Holy Spirit because one could not contain all of the Holy Spirit. Yet, would not this also be a problem with indwelling in a believer as well? Does 'all' of the Holy Spirit indwell us or just part? ;-) If all of the Holy Spirit can indwell a believer, why can't all of the Holy Spirit fill a believer? Secondly, none of the Scriptures you cited in your last post said anything about 'pneuma hagios'. So, how did they make your case my friend? Finally, where does Scripture make a distinction between 'dwelling' and 'indwelling'? Rom. 8:11 actually uses the word 'to dwell' in reference to the Holy Spirit and His relationship to believers. So, I'm not sure what you mean by your distinction between the two words. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
