Subject: Holy (GHOST) Received but not Realized? |
Bible Note: GeorJoy: Maybe I am not understanding what you have said in your note. You said for this person "Hang on to, and learn to use That POWER for the GLORY of HIM whom it is from." Correct me if I am wrong. Are we not given Spiritual Gifts to minister to others? Is not the Power we give in ministering to others directly form God? I am not convienced that we have any power in ourselves. Is it not God who uses us as tools for His service, and we are merely the isstrument God uses to deliver His power? Is there any way for us to learn how to use this Power? Are we like a battery absorbing as much of Gods power to use as we see fit? When one comes to Christ and becomes a Christian, do you believe that speaking in tongues comes naturaly? Or is speaking in tongues a result of being instructed what to do, and learned by observation? I have no proof, but I think toungues is learned from others, not something that comes naturally. Would you take the time, and be so kind to explain this to me? Thank you. justme |
