61 | Why the Holy Spirit came after baptism? | Acts 8:15 | iktoose | 145212 | ||
Hi Mohandass, Now I am bit confused/muddled with different terms. I have been believed that at the moment of salvation, the Holy Spirit comes into me and dwells in me. Having said that I have no problem understanding the terms like "quenching the Spirit, grieving the Spirit, to be filled with the Spirit, and the fruits of the Spirit." You said "annointing by the Spirit is a separate incident." Can you explain how "annointing by the Spirit" with respect to terms above? | ||||||
62 | Should we model after Jacob? | Gen 28:22 | iktoose | 145211 | ||
Hi Doc, In Genesis 28:21,22 Jacob (pre-Mosaic bible character) is swearing that he would offer a tenth to God if and only if God blesses him abundantly. What is wrong with that? I can be like Jacob anyday. |

63 | Why did Jesus encourage to betray? | John 13:27 | iktoose | 145209 | ||
Thank you Angel for more than I can handle insights, I am force-feeding myself to digest what you said here. You said " I have no right to exclude Judas from gaining salvation, neither does anyone else... " I think Jesus said that Judas would have been better off if he was not born. Based on that, I can assume he went to hell for doing a part of the Devine plan. If you believe in Jesus, you are saved. If you don't, you go to hell, correct? | ||||||
64 | Should we model after Jacob? | Gen 28:22 | iktoose | 145206 | ||
Hi Steve, Don't you think Jacob is pretty good model to follow after all he was blessed greatly by God? Presumably Jacob offered ten percent of whatever God increased. I am wondering about where/to whom the offering was given. I don't see a priest or anything about helping out widows/orphans... Anyone out there have good explanation for this. |

65 | Why did Jesus encourage to betray? | John 13:27 | iktoose | 145055 | ||
Thanks Angel for great insights. Just a quick note to what you stated, "It was also appointed, in Scripture, that one of His own would betray Him (John 6:64, 70-71; 13:2, 10-11, 21-30; 17:12; 13:18; Acts 1:16-17, 20; Psalm 41:10, 55:12-14)... Judas, though one of the twelve, was chosen for the purpose of betraying His Master... just as Jesus did not reject His task (John 12:27; 3:14-15; Isaiah 52:13 thru 53:12), it was required that Judas betray Him in order for the fulfillment of the Scripture!" If this statement is valid, I think Judas had no choice but to play the role of betrayer. Some responded that Judas was given ample opportunity to reverse the course. If he did, that would have jeopardized His Devine plan, not? |

66 | Spirit Baptism | Acts 8:12 | iktoose | 145030 | ||
Steve, If it occurs at the same time, how do you explain Acts 8:15? It seems that the Samaritans waited for Peter and John to lay hand on them in order to receive the Holy Spirit (after water baptism by Phillip). |
