1 | Do we receive *holy *spirit as a gift? | John 14:26 | Ray | 130095 | ||
In considering Romans 5:5, in my personal copy I have penciled in a lower case "holy spirit". I do this because I think of the holy spirit as the gift of God which is given to us. I compare the verse with Acts 11:16, "And I remembered the word of the Lord, how He used to say, 'John baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the *holy *spirit'. 17 If God therefore gave to them the same gift as He gave to us..." I would like some comments from the forum members as I continue to consider the gift of "holy spirit". From the heart, Ray |

2 | Do we receive *holy *spirit as a gift? | John 14:26 | lakerep | 130096 | ||
In reading the bible for many years I feel that this verse best answers your ? Rather than a gift I believe that the Holy Spirit has been released on all creation for Understanding and encouragement. A non believer is coaxed and a believer is encouraged as well as chastised. Or as this verse say's as an extension untill Christ returns. ::) | ||||||
