Off-topic much?

Those 85 years and older suffer the most COVID deaths of any age group, but that does not mean the average age of the deaths from COVID is 85. The death rate in the 85+ group is only 4.85% higher than the 75 to 84 group. This ratio fluctuates constantly and even if this were true, people are...

Conspicuous by its absence is "the breath of life" among the gifts/"aspects" of the Holy Spirit. A plain statement has been made that Christ did not have the Holy Spirit until His ascension. The statement is absurd. All the window dressing surrounding this discussion is of no consequence. Either...

I don't know if you noticed, but the goalposts have been moved. Now the Holy Spirit has "aspects" to be considered. See post #901. At least he called me "sir," though. I don't know which "aspect" of the Spirit was in play in Luke 4:18. I guess we'll find out, maybe. Sometimes I can't tell when...

"Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered." :)

I love the King James Version. But it has translation errors just like all the rest of them. The Word of God cannot be stopped by language variations. If the KJV is the only true version then what are non-English speakers supposed to do? Medieval English is not the language of Heaven. And using...

Revelation 20:6 Blessed and holy are those who share in the first resurrection! The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will reign with Him for a thousand years. ?

A literal, plain reading of Acts 2:33 does not dictate that it was impossible for Christ to have had the Holy Spirit before that time (or His ascension). It is not even an apparent (non-literal) contradiction.

And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:

Not one thing here disproves the simple statement of angels in Luke 2:11 that says: For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. Not the absence of dove-shapes, miracles or any other tokens denies the titles given to Him at birth (and actually precedes...

Wonderful testimony, John. :)

It is not because of any restriction on the part of God that the riches of His grace do not flow earthward to men. If the fulfillment of the promise is not seen as it might be, it is because the promise is not appreciated as it should be. If all were willing, all would be filled with the Spirit...

Amen, Brother!

Aunty, I’m not sure exactly how to approach this, so please forgive me if it goes amiss. Are you saying Jesus was not Messiah or Savior at His birth because He could not save Himself from Herod’s plot? Because I’m pretty sure that was not what He was sent to earth to do as Messiah or Savior. And...

No sarcasm intended at all. And what would be wrong with sarcasm? It's actually considered acceptable in the Forum Rules. I guess I'd better get used to it, unless we're going to part ways. Since the doubts keep coming up, why don't we just say I'm not. Does this qualify as chronology of...

Receiving, anointing, having, demonstrating, using (?)

That's nice.

Thank you for clearing that up for me. I'm pretty sure I can if I want to. I think that's largely what the quoting and tagging features are for. No, I didn't. I already explained that. I could recount the exchange, but I'm not going to. I type slow, and you could always just read back through...
