1 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | BradK | 158284 | ||
Mark, If I may interject here. Absolutely not! Why would we need to "experience" this- especially as there is not a shred of biblical support for it? What scripture would back this notion? As salvation is wholly of God, by grace through faith how would it be easier to explain after we've experienced it? Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |

2 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158317 | ||
You don't need to experience it ("slain in the Spirit")! When you were saved, didn't you have an "experience" of salvation? |

3 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | BradK | 158344 | ||
Mark, I was saved by placing my faith in the Person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ! I was not saved by any experience! My experience was somewhat emotional in that I recognized my sinfulness and need of a Savior! But, again, it is not the experience that saves us, it is the finished work of Christ (Titus 3:5). Mark, I have to wonder if you're familiar with scripture? I say this because of the large emphasis you seem to place on experience! The Bible, on the other hand does not refer to salvation as an experience. Rather, we believe God and place our faith into the finished work of His Son Jesus! (Rom. 4:3, 10:9) |

4 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158348 | ||
My seeming over emphasis on "experience" only appears by contrast. I would like all Christians to experience all that God has indicated in His Word is avaiable to them, especially the baptism of the Holy Spirit. | ||||||
