1 | Holy Spirit convicts of sin? | 2 Tim 2:15 | strts5 | 215070 | ||
Can you give me any scripture that says the Holy Spirit points out our sin? If God not only forgives sin, but also forgets them, who is reminding you of yours? Is God divided against Himself? Is this scriptural or is it a tradition of man? | ||||||
2 | Holy Spirit convicts of sin? | 2 Tim 2:15 | Searcher56 | 215071 | ||
God's day to you, strts5, The first step is that the Holy Spirit convicts us of sin ... John 16:8 says "And He, when He comes, will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment" ... read the context. Searcher |

3 | Holy Spirit convicts of sin? | 2 Tim 2:15 | strts5 | 215082 | ||
OK, I read it in context, and the context says, John 16:8-11 8And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: 9Of sin, because they believe not on me; 10Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; 11Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. any questions on verse 9? Clearly the Holy Spirit does not condemn the Church because we do believe in Him! |

Hi Mike, Where does it say condemn? I think you are misunderstanding the word convict where is is used in this context. It would be as accurate to use the word convince, (as I believe some translations do, or in the one you used it says, reporove) in this sense, because you are correct, the Church is indeed not condemned. But the Holy Spirit simply points things out to us, that we would otherwise not consider sin. Does that help? If not, we can try it another way if you like. John |
