Bible Note: Hello Ray, Now I never said anything about all these other scriptures you are pointing out here. Where are you coming from? OK now I think you are looking for an argument and I don't really believe in arguing matters of faith. Do you believe in the Trinity of the Godhead? I do. And I am very aware that the word "trinity" is not in the Bible. Be that as it may. The Holy Spirit is a person to me. He is not a gift, or a force in the sense that would make Him impersonal. If one has the Spirit of God in him that Spirit of God which is in him may manifest certain gifts and/or blessings according to the grace the Holy Spirit may give that individual which would enable that person to take his place in the body of Christ as one who prays as an intercessor or functions as an evangelist or as a pastor, etc. Many languages have different words for the different nuances in meaning for words like love, for instance. They have a different word for erotic love, or affection, or unconditional love. The English language does not have this and so we rely on adjectives or whatever is the context of the sentence or paragraph to convey the meaning of something.I did not mean to imply that I rely on capitalization to decide what the meaning of a word is in a text. In fact, in the original Hebrew, as I understand it, there were no capitalizations and there were no periods or any separations whatsoever. I don't mean to sound harsh. However, I prefer to study and learn and walk with the Lord and share, than to picking and being argumentative. I am not angry. I am just tired. I don't like picking. Sincerely, Itiswritten |
