Subject: Spreading the gospel |
Bible Note: Thank you for the thoughtful and insightful reply. Your response has blessed me and given me much to ponder. I suppose I have know all along the "tactics" of the enemy that the Apostle Peter mentioned. The main one, for me, I suppose has been a "condemning spirit". I think another has been to doubt my salvation, even though I have been through this eternal security thing enough to know better. I believe John 5:24 with all my heart, but it's easy to get tripped on it it if I have allowed anything unholy into my life, and then have the Lord graciously help me root it out after much conviction and sorrow of spirit. I think I know I have really "grieved the Spirit of God" at various times and in various ways. And also have "quenched the Spirit". Thank you for your thoughts and prayers! |
