And that is exactly what happened to the Pharisees!!Christ authority today lies in his word. The HS leads and resides through his word. You can’t do things contrary to the word he has given us and claim you are being led by the HS.
They derailed because they nit-picked the word of God to death, to the point of splintering splinters.
.
Yes! The Spirit of God is in the Word of God, but also He Himself, His Being, wants to live within us!!
That is/was "The Promise" that Israel of faith was looking for. Jesus Himself is that Promise!!
Please go see Simeon in Luke 2:25-32
.
Do you not comprehend the parable of the wise and foolish virgins??
Both had "lamps" (the words of God- Psalm 119:105), but the Wise had that and PLUS!! They HAD HIM, who was "the Word made flesh".
.
Now go back to Pentecost (Acts), and LEARN what it is that you are lacking!!
