1 | Filled with the holy spirit? | Mark 1:10 | Ray | 148800 | ||
We "must be filled/anointed by the Holy Spirit in order to know the mysteries of God!" "Jesus has no need to be anointed/filled with the Holy Spirit;..." Do these thoughts lead us to a consideration of the Holy Spirit being the Giver and the holy spirit as the gift? From the heart, Ray |

2 | Filled with the holy spirit? | Mark 1:10 | terrib | 148804 | ||
The Father is the giver and the Holy Spirit is the gift. Joh 14:16(NASB) "I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever; Joh 14:17(NASB) that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you. Ray, I read your April update and am praying for you. Job 2:10 "...In all this Job did not sin with his lips." Your brother, terrib |

3 | The gift of God | Mark 1:10 | Ray | 148818 | ||
Hi terrib, I'll make this a question since there is nothing before us right now on the forum. John 3:16 says that God gave His Son, so the Son is a gift. John 14:16 says that the Father will give another Helper, the Holy Spirit; so the Spirit is a gift. What gift do you see in John 4:10? "Jesus answered and said to her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, 'Give Me a drink,' you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water." From the heart, Ray |

4 | The gift of God | Mark 1:10 | terrib | 148825 | ||
Ray, I see the gift as being Jesus Himself and the salvation He offered the women through Him. But many was of the thought, of that time, they should expect a regal and royal entrance of the Messiah, for she did know that the Messiah was to come, but not one of a lowly stature. But Jesus opened her eyes and she called the neighbors to come to Him and many believed. terrib |

5 | The gift of God | Mark 1:10 | Ray | 148834 | ||
Hi terrib, Since you see the gift of God as being Jesus Himself, you probably would agree with the Green's Literal Translation which reads, "Jesus answered and said to her, If you knew the gift of God, and who is the (One) saying to you, Give Me to drink, you would have asked Him, and He would give you living water." If you see the gift as being Jesus Himself AND the salvation He offered, then Jesus is giving the gift of living water. So living water springs up to eternal life. I see Jesus as saying, "If you had the living water -- if you knew the gift of God -- you would know who He is who is speaking to you." From the heart, Ray P. S. Good night. |

6 | The gift of God | Mark 1:10 | terrib | 148839 | ||
Ray, Concerning Joh 4:10 (KJV) "Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water." You wrote: I see Jesus as saying, "If you had the living water -- if you knew the gift of God -- you would know who He is who is speaking to you." I wrote: I see the gift as being Jesus Himself and the salvation He offered the women through Him. I actually think that our meanings are the same except yours omits the “acceptance and repentance” or the “asking” aspect for the gift He was offering. For when I first learned of our Lord I was asking, asking for answers; answers to questions I really didn’t know. Then, after hearing of this gift and accepting what I heard and being made aware of my ways and repenting, the living water was given. And this is why He opened the dialog with this woman. The gifts of the above Scripture are all Jesus (not oneness); we cannot separate them? This is one of the great visual pictures of the grace of God. Perhaps a short history of the Samaritans would be advantageous to the other readers following this thread. Samaritans: The name given to the new and mixed inhabitants whom Esarhaddon (677 B.C.), the king of Assyria, brought from Babylon and other places and settled in the cities of Samaria, instead of the original inhabitants whom Sargon (721 B.C.) had removed into captivity (2Ki 17:24; compare Ezr 4:2, Ezr 4:9, Ezr 4:10). These strangers (compare Luk 17:18) amalgamated with the Jews still remaining in the land, and gradually abandoned their old idolatry and adopted partly the Jewish religion. After the return from the Captivity, the Jews in Jerusalem refused to allow them to take part with them in rebuilding the temple, and hence sprang up an open enmity between them. They erected a rival temple on Mount Gerizim, which was, however, destroyed by a Jewish king (130 B.C.). They then built another at Shechem. The bitter enmity between the Jews and Samaritans continued in the time of our Lord: the Jews had “no dealings with the Samaritans” (Joh 4:9; compare Luk 9:52, Luk 9:53). Our Lord was in contempt called “a Samaritan” (Joh 8:48). Many of the Samaritans early embraced the gospel (John 4:5-42; Act 8:25; Act 9:31; Act 15:3). Of these Samaritans there still remains a small population of about one hundred and sixty, who all reside in Shechem, where they carefully observe the religious customs of their fathers. They are the “smallest and oldest sect in the world.” (Easton’s Bible Dictionary) Jesus has always reached out to the politically incorrect and the socially poor. Without change, something sleeps deep inside us. (?) terrib |

Hi, terrib! It amazes me how close they can come to the Truth... it is almost a pop-faith... (the hand of God, the sleeper, the universe's super being (sounds like quizaht zadharak--or something to that effect), the "voice"... and doing a crossover to "the force..." though not quite exacting, they are speaking of Jesus Christ, God and the Holy Spirit! ...if only they would drink from the Fountain... perhaps they would discover why they seem to have needed to introduce such themes! God Bless! Angel |
