Subject: You need baptism of the Holy Ghost! |
Bible Note: I understand and agree! My testimony contained a very powerful revelation of scripture: Luke 11:9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. 10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? 12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? 13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? Clearly, it is a father and son relationship (Born again) and Jesus is telling us to ask for the Holy Ghost. I try not to make too much of the feelings, one CAN be deceived by them and I believe their are many that believe in the Baptism in the Holy Ghost that have gone to excesses in some areas, but it does not negate the truth. Thank you for you kind and loving words, it was refreshing, unlike many of the responses I have gotten recently. I admire a man who makes his own decisions for himself and does not just go along with their parent’s religion, I am the same way. We have to stand before God it the light we walk in not our parents. Above all we express LOVE, I know YOU know that, currently that is my heart's prayer, to express more of his love and compassion! Let us pray for one another! Love, Tim |
