Dear Cheri, My friend did not preach a visiting Arch-Bishop did... I am not talking about Peter's denial I am talking about Mathe 16:23 where Peter had said to Jesus God, forbid it Lord! This shall never happend to You? About Jesus saying He was going to be crucifed. How do you say Peter was not sealed with the Holy Spirit? Are you saying that the disciples, the OT saints somehow got saved without the actions and work inside them of the Holy Spirit? What about the teaching that the blood of Christ and the works of the Holy Spirit towards salvation were working backwards in time from the of the cross and that Pentecost was specifically as Jesus said it was, "you will recieve power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be My witnesses, etc."? What about Ephesians 1:13? In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation - having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise. How then is it that those who were saved before Jesus died whether disciples or OT saints did not receive the Holy Spirit? If you do not have the Holy Spirit you aren't saved! Here, II Peter 1:21 for no prophecy was ever made by an act of human will, but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God. Are you going to say that these men were not operating by the power of the Holy Spirit, or that they weren't saved? Jesus does not say in Acts that He was giving a seal of salavtion does He? He says the Holy Spirit will be coming with power so they could witness, there is a difference, the Holy Spirit was definitely working through them all when they were casting out demons and healing the sick... By what other power do you think they were doing it? Yeah okay Turetz, then why after they got they demon out of her was she suddenly healed? God's Day To You, Tamara |

Hiya Tam, I don't dispute the Holy Spirit was indeed working in OT but Messiah said himself that if He didn't "go away the comforter would not come" so I don't see Peter or the ancient saints having the Holy Spirit ALL the time as we do. Salvation comes from the blood of the Sacrifice Lamb, the blood had not yet been spilled. Peter was saved in that he most likely partook of the sacrificial system. But the salvation provided by Messiah had yet to be fulfilled. The ancient saints were saved by trust in the Promise of what Messiah would do and we get saved by trust in what Messiah did do. Peter would be of the first group. Like I said it's a very easy thing to blurt out what satan may speak in your ear!! If you said that she got healed, I missed that part and pardon me. If you didn't, don't rail on me if it wasn't a medical problem after all. You asked. :-) Shalom Cheri |
