1 | Quench the Spirit until extinguish? | Gal 5:17 | TheCurtMan | 116312 | ||
New Creature, Please forgive me if I'm misunderstanding your post, but is it possible to 'completely' quench the Spirit until it is completely extinguish?? You said, "It is the Spirit of love, and therefore anger, malice, revenge, or any unkind or unholy temper, will quench it so that it will withdraw its influences; and then the heart is left in a state of hardness and darkness." Once the heart reaches this state, is it possible for it to be restored?? If restoration is possible, then can it be said that the Spirit was quenched completely. If restoration isn't possible, then would that not contradict a number of biblical principles?? Then you said, “It has been observed that fire may be quenched as well by heaping earth on it as by throwing water on it; and so the love of the world will as effectually grieve and quench the Spirit as any ordinary act of transgression.” I really couldn’t get a “Yes” or “No” out of your comment, but from what I know is that when you use either water or earth to extingush a fire, when it is extingushed, for the most part, it is completely extingushed. Which is the reason for my question. Like I said, my apologies for misunderstanding your post if I did, but I am courious. The CurtMan |

SirPent, I read your post, one of the best I seen on this forum. Your exchage with Nolan Keck also tells me a lot about the character of two brave and pious friends. Your kind of straightforward Christian honesty is rare. I admire it. I also full-on agree with your assessment about quenching the Holy Spirit. My favorite episodes are with Captain Pike and the one with the creature that lives on salt. I also always loved seeing the weaponry fired off. Colin |
