1 | Why did God wait to send the Holy Spirit | Joel 2:28 | Sir Pent | 113974 | ||
I need clarification................................. Hi Rowdy, If I understand you correctly, you are saying that God had to wait to send Jesus to Earth until humanity "grew up". And by "growing up" you mean that humanity stopped focusing on the physical world and started focusing on the spiritual world. I assume that you are also saying that God had to wait to send the Holy Spirit unitl this "growing up" happened as well. Am I understanding you correctly? |

2 | Why did God wait to send the Holy Spirit | Joel 2:28 | Rowdy | 114017 | ||
I don't really have any answers to your question. As I've stated in my profile and in some of my posts, I've spent a lifetime in studying God's Word and maybe a little bit of human behavior. Over the years I have noticed some trends in the way God and humans interact now and in the way they acted in the OT. I may have drawn some conclusions but I think they seem to have a "ring of truth." Like I mentioned I don't really have any real answers that neatly address your specific question. Who could possibly fully describe why God does now and why He did things the way He did in the OT. I assume you've already read my previous posts on this subject in which I depicted a number of strange and unusal actions on the part of our Lord. So, the standard cop-out almost anyone gives at this point is to cite the fact that God's thoughts are far, far above ours and we'll just have to wait until Judgment Day to ask God Himself. God bless. |
