1 | Why did this man need a second touch ? | Mark 8:25 | Mark7 | 158141 | ||
"He asked him, 'Do you see anything?' And he looked up and said 'I see men, for I see them like trees, walking around.' " Refractive error is the common sense reading of this description. Scholarly writings are no substitute for common sense reading of the scripture with the indwelling of the Holy Spirit as evidenced by speaking in tongues. | ||||||
2 | Why did this man need a second touch ? | Mark 8:25 | Mark7 | 158249 | ||
You misunderstand the statement about speaking in tongues. The point I was making was that the Baptism of the Holy Spirit (after you, personally, receive it) will enable you to see better the common sense meaning of scriptures. Of course I don't believe Jesus did anything wrong by doing two healings. By doing so it adds to the list of specifically designated healings in the Bible one of correcting refractive error. |

Don't you believe in divine healing? I have seen many miracles performed, but the need to turn water into wine has never arisen. In the future, please make you comment in the right place, this place is for Mark 8:25 not 10:22. |

5 | Why did this man need a second touch ? | Mark 8:25 | Mark7 | 158254 | ||
Obviously the man was not born blind or he would not know what a tree or a man should look like. I don't have any problem with the idea that Jesus healed his brain (visual cortex) besides his eyes for a second healing. The idea was that he didn't "have" to, he chose to do two healings (at least): which, rather than illustrating a limitation of Jesus shows he is able to heal all manner of diseases, including your deteriorative eye disease. Thanks for the visual cortex idea, I will use it but not exclusively. |

6 | Why did this man need a second touch ? | Mark 8:25 | Mark7 | 158257 | ||
Yes, there is a difference between the activity of the Holy Spirit in the life of every believer and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in the believer as a result of receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit. See especially the book of Acts and the Pauline epistles. I don't know about "ecastatic utterances". I don't think this term is in the Bible and it sounds pergoritve to me. By "tongues" I meant another language, as in "the tongues of men and angels." |

7 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158247 | ||
I hope you have this blessed experience some day. But everyone I know who has, has been baptised in the Spirit with the evidence of speaking it tongues (Acts 2:4) and somehow I think that would be a problem. | ||||||
8 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158269 | ||
Why do you think five minutes didn't pass? I said "probably" fake. Jesus' purpose was not that they enjoy a blessing (though the may have - look at the healing performed on the ear) but that it was clear who's BOSS! | ||||||
9 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158277 | ||
I'm not sure it is necessary to "justify" a manifestation of God. It is my reading of the scripture that they were "slain in the Spirit" in this passage. You obviously disagree. Sometimes our church plays volleyball, although it is not in the Bible. By the way, playing musical instruments IS in the New Testament. | ||||||
10 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158278 | ||
Also, wouldn't you agree that's it's a lot easier to explain salvation after we've experienced it? | ||||||
11 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158315 | ||
I know you are not going to see "slain in the Spirit" in this verse, because you don't believe it is from God. As far as I remember, I was not taught this by man. The reason that these types of manifestations only occur in some churches is that only some churches have enough faith over unbelief in this area. See Matthew 13:58. Do you respect Billy Grahm? He was baptised in the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues. I have explained it, you are unwilling to accept it. "...I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me." "Holy Laughter" is real, too! :) (I just learned it had that name on this website) |

12 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158316 | ||
I didn't make myself clear: I was speaking more generally of the baptism of the Holy Spirit and ALL its dependent manifestations. I am not particularly interested in you being "slain in the Spirit" also called "falling under the Power". But I would like you to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues as it would be a great benefit to your Christian walk. | ||||||
13 | 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? |
||||||
14 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158318 | ||
Jesus Christ the Son of God did/does the "slaying" in both cases. | ||||||
15 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158319 | ||
I have no knowlege of Benny Hinn or the "Word of Faith" heresy. | ||||||
16 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158337 | ||
Please clarify what in the world you are talking about? | ||||||
17 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158341 | ||
One case is the verse extensively referred to. To what exactly do you think I am referring in the second case? | ||||||
18 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158346 | ||
Receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit is only living out the truth of the Word of God. To the contrary of your experience, I have found such people more respectful of the Word of God than the average Christian. |
||||||
19 | What is "slain in the spirit"? | 1 Thess 5:21 | Mark7 | 158347 | ||
I did not receive this from man. I did not refer to God's abilities, only His actions. I did not claim that God needs our help. Where has God in His Word directed not to practice "holy laughter"? |
||||||
20 | 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. | ||||||
