Bible Question (short): promise from Holy Spirit; gift of h.s. |
Question (full): P.S. I have used my pencil eraser through the years and wish to get back to this post. Now is your chance to set me straight with your comments. In my original post here, I had recommended a lower case holy spirit for Acts 2:33. I have it now in upper case for my personal copy since I now think of the verse as speaking both of the promise, the gift, and also the Person, the Holy Spirit. I offer these comparison verses: Acts 2:32, "This Jesus God raised up again, to which we are witnesses. 33 Therefore having been exalted to the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of [from?] the Holy Spirit/, He has poured forth this which you both see and hear." John 7:38, "He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, 'From his innermost being shall flow rivers of living water.'" 39 But this He spoke of the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Holy Spirit/ was not yet [given], because Jesus was not yet glorified." Acts 2:38, "And Peter said to them, "Repent, and let each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the *holy *spirit. For the promise is for you and your children, and for all who are far off, as many as the Lord our God shall call to Himself." Comments and Scriptures, please. From the heart, Ray |
