NASB | Ephesians 1:13 In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation--having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise, |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Ephesians 1:13 In Him, you also, when you heard the word of truth, the good news of your salvation, and [as a result] believed in Him, were stamped with the seal of the promised Holy Spirit [the One promised by Christ] as owned and protected [by God]. [John 7:39; Acts 2:33] |
Subject: Automatic Holy Spirit? |
Bible Note: Charis: I am a little confused by your post. I agree that faith and baptism in the Holy Spirit are not the same thing. However, you stated bith that it NOT separate from salvation and then say that it is not synchronous. If it does not occur at the same time as we put our trust in Christ alone, how can we say it is not separate? Please clarify. Thanks! --Joe! |
