His or Not His?: God is pouring out His Spirit

Apostolic youth fall into this category many times over. What is worse, to have some truth and fall, or to have "all" truth and fall?

Neither is worse. To fall is still to fall.

And, yes, you are correct...many Apostolic youth do fall into "this" category. But, one of the reasons is that, though they have the dress on, or the sleeves down to the elbow, they still are attempting to mimic the Britney Spears and others like her of the world in their styles, their interactions with others (talking lingo here), and are "up" on whatever is the going thing anyhow. That's not separation. Not doing so is NOT legalism. Doing so is spiritual suicide. Not doing so is just good common sense.

I can see why you would love those people. They are reaching out to the lost and hurting community around them.

Why is it that people can't see the move of God when it's so vividly clear? God is going to move right past all the ones who are so blinded by their traditions! I want to be in sync with what God is doing!

Chosen ... some would argue w/ you that God never changes ... and so we must not.

but I submit to you that this is indeed true ...He never changes ...

but he's also ever moving ... He is the I am ...

always in the present moving towards the future ...

he's not stuck in the past like some are ... stuck on the light of true revelation that He has shone .... of His infiniteness.

God is moving over the earth ...

He was moving in Genesis ... over the face of the waters ...

He was moving when all ... Moses could do was catch a glimpse of his back ...

In the NT ... he was moving ....when said "My Father is working right now, and so am I." ....

He moved in Pentecost like a rushing mighty wind

... He's moving today ...

and moving towards His coming ....

If we are not careful ... we will miss His moving today ... March 4, 2007.

20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

They belong to God and hopefully they will go on into further truth and be baptized in the name of the Lord.

Gal 3:25 But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. 26 For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.
27 For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

Ro 6:3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?

I'll take someone with a "walk" over someone with a "talk" any day of the week.

Was going to post that but ya already said it...two and a thumbs up!
