21 | What is to ask and receive the Holy Spir | Luke 11:13 | mitchm0521 | 167846 | ||
I just gave you the reference brother. Jesus said they would be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence. Hey said they would be immersed with the Holy Ghost, this was after they were already believers. So it has to be secondary. Unless they needed to be 'saved' from their sins twice. Which we know is not right. | ||||||
22 | What is to ask and receive the Holy Spir | Luke 11:13 | mitchm0521 | 167801 | ||
Yes, it says they were filled with the Holy Ghost. And Jesus in Acts 1:5 said that they would 'be baptized in the Holy Ghost, not many days hence' So yes, they were filled and they were baptized into the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues. The Lord said they would be baptized, and they were. God Bless, Mitch |

If there is not a secondary immersion into the HOly Ghost, that follows one being born again, how do you explain away Acts 2:4. What was that all about? |

If everytime a believer dies, you say its the 'just punishment of sin' then woudln't that mean that person went to hell.. since they died in sin? Jesus took the penalty of sin from me, I don't have to have any of it. I might leave this body, but I will not die due to sin. I am delivered from all the effects of sin. I never have to live in this life with any form of sickness or disease, or poverty lack and want, I never have to live without God in my life. Thats just how it is brother. God Bless, Mitch |

Well you can try to read it however you want. From what I see in the passsage, the Word says if you give up those things, you get 100 fold in return (except wives ) and you get persecutions. When I learned cause and effect in grammar school I was tarught you don't have to use the words such as because and since, it can be implied. And when you tell me that I get such and such, and say with such and such, then you easily show me that one comes with the other, meaning if I don't have one, i wont get that other. I know bleievers suffer persecution but I bleive this scripture is showing us that there is persecution which comes wtih this 100 fold return. Meaning, someone who has the 100 fold in their lives, might be suffering something that someone who doesn't. Thats all I'm saying, the word says persecution comes with the 100 fold. Its that simple. God Bless, Mitch |

Even if it doesn't indicate 'cause' as you say. I'll believe that... actually give me some insight, I understand we read the Greek, and go on it, but is that what Jesus would have spoken in, or would he have spoken in Aramaic? Anyways.... the text clearly shows that the persecutions come with the 100 fold. So we can easily say if you have the 100 fold.. you have the persecutions.. .and on the same note, you can also say that if you dont hae the 100 fold, those persecutions that come with giving up something for the Lord, won't be with you then will they? If you get A, you get B. To get rid of B, don't get A... correct? |

Is there anything in Scripture that forbids you to go against the will of God? Because I'm fairly certain, if you go against God, as Satan does, you are in sin. And it is the exact same thing brother. If a man gets born again, and he was an alcoholic, and in order for him to fully put away that addiction from his life, he needed to stay away from all forms of alcohol, yet if you ran up to him and said, here is some good beer, drink it, besides, if God wants you off the stuff, he'll do it. IF God wants someone dead, and you try to prevent that, then you are in the exact same place as Satan, you are exalting yourself against God. God Bless, Mitch |

We'll close this part up here Brother, I responded about death in that other thread we have open up a bit. It gets to confusing having so many at once :) But in short, no, Christians die just like other people. Some Christians die from sickness, that doesn't mean we all have to does it? I'm simply saying, death is not sickness. There is a time that if Jesus tarries, I will leave this earthly body, I will as you call it 'die' but it wont be from any form of sickness or disease, I'll be an old old man, and age wont be a factor in my leaving this planet.

Death is still here, as long as we can be martyed for the Lord Jesus. That is the only 'death' I ever might experience. And yes, salvation is complete deliverence from the curse, the Word says that doesn't it? Jesus has delivered us from the curse, correct? Death is the final enemy to be destroyed, and yes, it will be done. Sin will finally be destroyed as well wont it? Sin will take a man to the pits of hell and he will be tormented forever. But just because sin exists today in this earth, does it mean I am full of it? IN other words, just because death exists, doesn't mean I have to be in bondage to it. You don't have to die sick and poor, you can die like Moses did, you can know you are going to go, and know when you are going to go. It doens't have to be cancer, it doens't have to be a heart attack, its simply a matter of your life force going home to be with the Lord. On another note, since we agree that death is our enemy, then if God brings death upon us, how does that not make God our enemy? Your Brother, Mitch |

Do you believe God's will in heaven is for people to die? Do you think he wants death to take place in heaven? HOw about 1 Peter 2:24 that says by the stripes of Jesus we are healed? Its found in Isaiah as well, I know you know that. Also part of Isiah is quoted in the Gospel, you know that as well. That shows its God's will to heal. Where can you find that shows its not always his will? Again I ask, if we are to pray Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven. Are we to think that sometimes he wants people to die in heaven? And would you ever pray repetedly for God to grant you salvation, or do you think that you only have to pray that one time? Do you think a person has to get up every morning, and become born again , again? Also, if at times its God's will to kill, then we can say that Satan does the work of God, correct? Just some thoughts, Mitch |

Its good to be particular brother, I wouldn't want to discuss the Word any other way. However, what I'm seeing here, is that the word with, yes does show you that persecution comes with the 100 fold. Thats all I'm trying to say, when you recieve the 100 fold, then you get persecution with it. Now this is a crazy illustration, but let me just go ahead and say it... Lets say I buy a brand new dodge truck, and when you purchase this particular truck, you get a person with it that follows you around and throws pie in your face all day long. I could say I have the pie throwing man because I bought the truck? Because he came with the truck... correct? Thats all I"m saying brother. I'm saying you get the persecution, when you get the 100 fold. Mitch |

God would never discourage the use of hospitals, they are wonderful tools for those who have not come to the knowledge of Christ their healer. My mother is a nurse, there is nothing wrong with a profession that helps people. I fully support them, I don't need them, but untill someone gets int he Word, and trusts Jesus as their healer, they might need them. From your 1st point, you said If God wants someone dead, then you sending them to the hospital wont prevent it. Then by that same token if God wants someone saved ( which we can agree he wants everyone saved ) should you still give them pornography, should you still give them heroine? No you shouldn't, and how come? Because those things are contrary to the Word of God. If God has made a decree, we better follow it. If God wants something to happen, and if we try to disobey it, and not support it, we are in sin brother. So if God wants someone dead, and you send them to a hospital to try to save their life, you are opposing the work of God. God Bless, Mitch |

I believe to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord ( 2 Cor 5:8 ) I am a Spirit, i have a soul, and I live in a body. Someday I will leave this body. I don't call that death, I call that a homecoming :) |

I know faith can be measured, but you can't measure it like you measure a mustard seed. Thats all I'm saying there, you say he only means literal mountains, then why don't you say he means litterally measuring your faith like you measure a seed? I am sorry to hear about your loss, and I am even more sorry to hear that you believe it was not God's will to heal your son. I never said God is a magical lamp either. I simply say that whatever his will is, thats what I want in my life. And healing is his will. AGain, I am sorry for the loss of your son, I hope that in time you are emotionally healed from that experience, and realize God did not take him, satan is the one who kills steals and destroys. God Bless you brother, Mitch |

I think suffering comes upon us, simply because Satan hates us. I would have to assume Satan hates the entire human race. I think we could all agree with that. And in hating us, he worked a plan that caused Eve to be decieved and Adam to transgress. That brought death into this entire planet. Can we agree that sickness and disease were not in the Garden untill the fall of man? Or do you think God designed Adam in order to at times, give him cancer, or some other form of disease? As for God allowing suffering in our lives, I believe he has to allow it at times, obvisouly if I shoot myself, I'll get hurt wont I? But he did say in Isaiah that no weapon formed against me can prosper. So whats the deal with that? Is it a contradiction, or could it possibly be that if I am walking in the Word of God, and keeping his commands, that God will then be able to extend his protection over me? I believe that is the case, otherwise, God would be a respecter of persons to be doing all the wonderful things he is doing in my life, yet force someone else to live in poverty and have no home, must less a beautiful home as God has blessed with me. And we know from Scripture, God is no respecter of persons. As for the blessings and cursings, yes I believe we can live in the blessings from the Old Testament, I don't think we have to live in Israel, but hey, maybe we can stand on the Word and say that its our land too! YOu'd have to take that before God. But if we look at all those wonderful blessings in Deuteronomy, why would God not extend those to us? Hebrews says we have a better covenant, established upon better promises! Glory to God brother, better promises! If they had healing, we have that too, and better things that that. Our covenant would not be better than theirs, if they were able to repent and get back in line with God and have no sickness, but we are forced to live in it. So my view is basically this, God does not send sickness or disease upon his children, it happens, because the devil wants to hurt all of humanity. He wants to destroy it. The Word says he comes to kill steal and destroy. But God, has made a way of escape for those who will call upon him. Because the Word says "Whosoever will call upon the name of the Lord shall be healed! ( delivered , saved ) Glory to God Brother, that sounds good to me, doesn't it you? Mitch |

Is there something in the text that shows that persecution comes with it and not because of it? At any rate if it comes because of the 100 fold, or with it, is it not the same? If I am living in 100 fold, I should expect to be persecuted correct? Isn't that what we are both saying? |

I've read the book of Job. Can you show me in there where God did those thigns to Job, or can you show me in that book where God allowed it to happen to Job? There is a huge difference that should be discovered between those two ideas. Also, I do take the 'WOF' as you call it teachings and prove them in light of the entire Word, not only that, but as the Word says, these teachings that many despise, are being proven daily in the lives of many believers. The Lord is working with me and many other preachers confirming his Word with many signs and wonders following. So since the Word backs up what they teach, and since the works back up what they teach, I have no reason to doubt it. And there have been little comment on my comments about hospitals. I would assume its because nobody can say anything about them. Its true, if you think sickness is from God, and you support hospitals, then you are very likely helping someone get healed, that God wants dead. God Bless, Mitch |

First let me say I'm sorry you feel the need to have such... hostility towards me. I love you brother, let us discuss these issues with an open heart. I thought I had stated what I meant, and gave scripture for the statement that God has made himself dependant on our faith. Maybe I forgot to hit submit, but let me just reiterate it for you, in case it wasn't actually posted, and in which case, I apologize. 2 Peter 3:9 says that God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentence. Hebrews 11:6 says that without faith it is impossible to please God. Because in order to come to God we have to believe that he is and that he is the rewarder of them that diligently seek him. In other words, if you don't believe in God, and have no faith in God, you can't come to him and recieve the salvation that he wants every man to have. So, what I"m saying is just this. If God wants every man saved, what is keeping every man from being saved? Why did the rich man end up in hell? Why have all of us known someone that died without a relationship with Jesus Christ and in all probability wind up in hell? If God is able to save any man, wether or not he believes on the name of Jesus Christ, then it makes him a very unjust God to let people wind up in hell doesn't it? In other words, if God can make sure a man enters into heaven when he leaves this life, without the man having to do anything on his own to get in, ie without having to confess Jesus, and have no faith, then and only then would God be independent of a mans faith woudln't he? But since God is willing that none should perish, yet to have everlasting life you must have faith, for God to bring you into right standing with himself you must have faith, to please the Father you must have faith, that makes God pretty dependent on your faith in Him doens't it? Hope this cleared things up! Mitch |
