1 | How do you "share the Gospel?" | Matt 28:18 | Ken hepting | 100341 | ||
I can accept that except I believe God wants us to work through Him and not the other way around. Get my drift? Hence the need to be baptized in the Holy Spirit. Jesus does that. Then we are to seek to have the mind of God in everything....Just like Jesus, the man. | ||||||
2 | How do you "share the Gospel?" | Matt 28:18 | Asis | 100344 | ||
Jesus the man filled with the Holy Spirit and power. God does not want you to do the work. He wants you to be HIS instrument of righteousness. An instrument does not play itself. God is the musician we are the instruments. When we are baptized with the Holy Spirit we have the Spirit of God which knows the mind of God living inside of us (1 Cor 2:16 For WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF THE LORD, THAT HE WILL INSTRUCT HIM? But we have the mind of Christ.) Jesus did nothing of Himself. John 12:49 “For I did not speak on My own initiative, but the Father Himself who sent Me has given Me a commandment as to what to say and what to speak. 50“I know that His commandment is eternal life; therefore the things I speak, I speak just as the Father has told Me.” And again John 14:9 9Jesus said* to him, “Have I been so long with you, and yet you have not come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10“Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on My own initiative, but the Father abiding in Me does His works. Are we better than Jesus to do what we think God wants done or to do it our way by our might or is Jesus our model for Kingdom living. To do and be in Him 24/7. 1 Cor. 1:30. Read Galatians 3 and meditate on what God says for us to DO. |

[God does not want you to do the work.] Yes He does. He just doesn't want us doing our thing. Jesus didn't do His own thing and He is always our example for our attitude.. [He wants you to be HIS instrument of righteousness. An instrument does not play itself. God is the musician we are the instruments.] I well understand. Thank you [When we are baptized with the Holy Spirit?] When are we baptized in the Holy Spirit? How do we know we are? [we have the Spirit of God which knows the mind of God living inside of us] How do we know that in a practical way that we can be certain that when we function we are functioning in Him as He desires? |

He wants to do the work through you. [same idea different way of saying it]. If I do it then I can boast, "Look what I have done for God." If he does it through me who can I boast in? Do it by demonstration of the Holy Spirit. When Jesus baptizes us in the Holy Spirit we have an experience. Mine was being overcome by the power of God and the next day speaking with other tongues. Tongues is one way which God uses to give evidence of Jesus baptizm with the Holy Spirit but the evidence is not limited to tongues. When your spirit get energized by the Holy Spirit you know it. This baptism of which we speak is for service. God promised that He would give us Power from on High. He turned 11 disciples into apostles on the day of Pentecost. What is your hearts desire? Have you had an experience of the cross. Do you die to self daily? When I am not functioning in Him as He desires I get convicted. Which leads to repentence. I know I am in Him because He says I am in Him. I know I am a son of God and His righteousness just because I believe Him. This is how I know He said it. (Numbers 23:19; Romans 3:4) I have had an experience of Him. His promises have become a reality in my life. Proverbs 3:5,6; Proverbs 4:20,21. There are no steps to do just trusting to be.(Yoda) Asis |
