Yelling again.
What I said is what I mean. Just knowing about Jesus is not enough. Even the demons believe in Him. Again, you didn't understand a thing I said, let alone what I meant.
You said...
""""We can try to turn away from sin, but we are only successful AFTER we have received the Holy Spirit. So true repentance is not turning away from sin all by yourself. Repentance is acknowledging you are a sinner and that you can't stop sinning on your own.
*******. NEXT ******. = after this acknowledgement that you are weak,...... it is then you cry out to Jesus to free you from your desire to sin. Jesus fills you with His own Spirit"...
Notice that you said...
1.."after we have received the Holy Spirit
So, that is you saying you have received the Holy Spirit...
then "NEXT".....
Notice the "next".
that is Part 11, after you have already received the HS, as you wrote.
so, NEXT....... you "cry out" to get #2 Infilling, "Jesus fills you with His own Spirit".
Yet, you were already in possession of the Spirit of Christ, before you then wrote NEXT, .....
So, do you want to now go back and rewrite it all, so that you can pretend you didnt say all that?
Go back now and write...."before we are born again, we are sinners, crying out for help"...so, Jesus fills us with his divine nature, and we are then freed from sinning"...
Umm. no.
= This wont work, because no SINNER is crying out to stop sinning.
Sinners love to sin.
They only cry out when they are convicted that they are sinners, and want to be SAVED.
a BELIEVER has a Totally different situation, then a "sinner" crying out to Jesus to get help to stop sinning as a sinner wont cry this out to Jesus...to stop sinning.
So, you are confused here, and you need to rework it, and re-present it, so that it sounds like what some Baptist would teach, as this way, it at least resembles being born again ONCE, and Jesus coming to live inside, as our DIVINE NATURE. = us as a New Creation in Christ.
