Churches are failing as we all know.

[Aunty Jane]

I sure can see you sure did some homework . Too bad it came of men .

And your beliefs didn’t come from men? Tell me please whose beliefs don’t come from some other humans?
Who wrote the Bible? Who preached the good news to those in the first century? Jesus taught his apostles and those men taught others. Who taught you?

You said all of this .

Yes, I said all of that because I did my homework.
It’s amazing what you find out when you remove the accepted precepts put forward by an apostate church system, and do your own research.
You apparently reject the church system, and yet you still accept many of its teachings.
Why?

Now watch how short and simple it is for this sheep to prove and do so by the scrips .

I have used “the scrips”, Amigo….they tell the story. I do not depart from them.

IF i do not go the COMFORTER cannot come . HE has been with you and shall be IN YOU .
I Will come unto you , I WILL NOT leave you comfortless .
GOD IS HIS SPIRIT , HE IS HIS WORD . and the HOLY SPIRIT aint an IT

God is a spirit (John 4:24) but he also has a spirit, that in the language of the Bible is the administration of his power. The Holy Spirit emanates from God and empowers others, giving them abilities and knowledge that others do not have.

The HOLY SPIRIT is a LIVING ENTITY that was LONG before anything even was .

I agree that God, as an eternal being, has always existed, which means that he was always “Almighty” or “all powerful” (Omnipotent). But God’s spirit is the administration of that power….it was evident in creation (Gen 1:1-2) and in the accomplishment of God’s will and purpose, all through the Bible.
Where does it ever say that God’s spirit is a person?

THE FATHER IS SPIRIT and has desired that men worship HIM , IN SPIRIT and IN TRUTH .
Enjoy that my friend .

I have enjoyed it Amigo….but I understand the difference between God being a spirit, and exercising the power of his spirit and giving it to others…..this power is from God….it is “God’s spirit”…and he uses it to accomplish his will.
Even Jesus was empowered by God’s spirit, which he received at his baptism at 30 years of age, giving him the ability to perform miracles. His first miracle as you may know, was turning water into fine wine.

After Jesus’s death, Holy Spirit was poured out on 120 of Christ’s disciples at Pentecost empowering them to speak in languages that they had never learned. They could heal the sick and raise the dead because God’s spirit was giving them those abilities.

The HOLY SPIRIT is a LIVING ENTITY that was LONG before anything even was .

So are you saying that the Holy Spirit is not created? Is He of the essence of God the Creator?

Church attendance is a function of identity; identity is defended by purity; winning people over to these two things, requires scripture.

Have you worked out, which scripture you will believe last? Once you reach Heaven, do you have a scripture you would like to turn to first?

These are character building issues, the Holy Spirit was an expert in all of them!

Haha. You're funny. No need for scripture now for the mature in Christ. And certainly no need for them when we are with Jesus and Father in person. We will see Them as they are. We will have an unlimited time to explore our Creator with giving scripture or the bibles a second thought. These writtings will be made obsolete by Their presence. Glory to God!

The question is like how the church and science unify, and when the church figures it out, and when it doesn't have to suck.
