Bible Note: What the author fails to mention that there are two distinct differences between being spirit lead and claiming to be spirit lead. True leading will not take a believer outside the boundaries set by scripture. While those only claiming to be to be spirit lead often stray outside those boundaries. Because of this many want to deny the possibility that there is more to true Christianity than what they possess. Their relationship with God is one of silence where God only talks to them through His written word. They miss the fact God will and does verbally converse with us through His spirit. They fail to trust scripture that says the spirit will lead, will teach, will be a real companion. They only see the abuses because they never have the real relationship that takes man beyond acting like a Christian and being a Christian. They let their fear of being deceived over ride the promised gift of discerning spirit. They focus on the abuses so common in anything man is involved in and lose sight of what of the possibilities of a spirit led being. Thankful the Apostle's did not do this. Is that say they were always on track? No many times the had to be brought into correction. ( Paul and Peter) Today we have very specific boundaries provided for us, scripture does that today. The important thing to remember is not to seek the manifestations of the Holy Spirit but instead to develop a 2 way relationship with the Holy Spirit in which the individual has yielded his will to God. Sad commentary where the author focuses on the possible abuses and fails to talk about about the real capabilities of living a Spirit Filled a Life. How sad! |
