1 | How do you "share the Gospel?" | Matt 28:18 | John Reformed | 100302 | ||
"God will not give me humility or patience or holiness or love as separate gifts of His grace." (Watchman Nee) But the Apostle Paul said: Rom 12:6 Since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to exercise them accordingly: if prophecy, according to the proportion of his faith; What am I missing here? John |

Grace and not "graces" Grace is consquencial to the abiding presence of Christ within you. Remember He is all in all. Notice how God says this to Paul in Paul's situation where he needed some sort of "deliverance from pain" grace: 2 Cor. 12:9 (NASB-U) And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ* may dwell in me. *All of the "Grace"[Christ Himself] 1 Cor. 12:4-5 (NASB-U) Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same *Spirit. [5] And there are varieties of ministries, and the same **Lord. *Grace **Grace, again How'd I do, John? |

Well Ken...Since we rely and trust Christ to save us and keep us; we also rely on the Holy Spirit help and enlighten us; and the Father that He provide for us and forgive us...I don't see anything wrong with either position. So long as our dependence is upon the Father, Son and Holy Ghost we can't help but be safe. God Bless, John |

Yeah! That's the ticket. The key to success in this is that we LOVE Him: Matthew 22:37 (NASB-U) "...... 'You shall LOVE THE Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.' Why? 1 Cor. 8:3 (NASB-U) but if anyone loves God, he is known by Him. |

Sure. But if you desire of Him and become what He desires, what is our responsibility? If we don't know how to accomplish the task what should we recognize about ourselves that needs to be rectified? | ||||||
7 | How do you "share the Gospel?" | Matt 28:18 | Asis | 100336 | ||
Ken Our responsiblility is to be obedient and surrender all (die to self). God wants to work through us. Anything that we do of our own is of the flesh and God desires us to walk, live, by the Spirit. That which is born of flesh is flesh and that which is born of spirit is spirit. Our responsibility is to walk by the spirit (our new nature). |

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. | ||||||
9 | 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 |
