1 | Holy Spirit | John 9:1 | Mike7 | 73116 | ||
I have a question regarding the Holy Spirit. The reason I ask is because for example: when Christ healed the blind man in John 9 Christ had the Holy Spirit but the man who was healed I assume did not. My belief regarding some Holy Spirit enablements are that people receive the Holy Spirit because they have faith in Christ as their personal savior. However, this does not make any sense to me, when christ healed the blind man the Holy Spirit was not made available to us until the day of apentecost. So this blind man had nothing within himself to enable him to be healed since he was not filled with the Holy Spirit? I know that Christ could heal because the Father gave him the Holy Spirit but I do not understand how today people can have less than a miracle (for example one may say I was enable by the Holy Spirit to get a revelation from the bible) yet the blind man was able to see eventhough the Holy Spirit was not made available at that time until the day of apentecost. I Hope I made myself clear. | ||||||

Greeings Mike, I think I understand what you are asking - if not let me know. You are right the man that Christ healed did not have the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit did not come onto the scene until the day of Pentecost. What healed the man was his faith that he could be healed and the fact that Christ had the power to do so. People today do not have the faith that they had before. Many don't know how to believe with such depth. In order to receive a miracle you have to have the ability to receive. You don't have the ability to receive if you don't have the faith top receive. prayon |
