2 | Can everyone rec'd the Holy Spirit | Heb 1:3 | ATJ | 37389 | ||
Matt. 11:28-30. Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me: for I am meek and lowly in heart: and you shall find rest unto your soul. Christ wants everyone who labor in sin to come unto him. Sin is what weighs a person down and ultimately destroys him. Once a person comes to Christ he gives them rest from sin and the penalty of sin. Once a person yokes up with Christ or is joined to Christ, the Holy Spirit reveals who Christ really is. Read Matt 11:26-27. Now my question is, How can a person learn of Christ without the Holy Spirit? And how can person have the Holy Spirit if they labor in sin? Can a man serve two master? Read I John 3:5,3:8. Jesus was brought to the earth to take away sin. Sin is what caused man to be in this state and to get us out of this state sin must be paid for and taken away. Read Act 2: 37-38. Repent means to be Godly sorrowful of your sins. Read Rom 6:1-3. A person can not grow in Christ and be in sin at the same time because God forbid this to happen. Hopefully these are enough scriptures but feel free to write me back. Andrew Jr. |
