How many times did you ask God for the Holy Ghost?

Narrow? Privileged few? Those that know how to repeat what they've heard? Those that say, "Hallelujah" so quickly that everyone starts yelling and says it's the Holy Ghost?

This whole subject lights my fire. It's an insult the the Holy Spirit that indwells EVERY believer, not just the special few that manage to regurgitate unintelligible "words" that no one understands.

It happened left and right in the New testament! It's called repentance.



God bless you, too.

Rom 14:5 ...Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

Do not think you can take away my privilege of being fully persuaded in my own mind. We each must LET the other be persuaded in their own minds.

Disagree gracefully.

Ohhhhhhhhh....now I understand. I guess people now don't repent and THEN, they always did? That's a perfect explanation. Why didn't I think of that?

Dictionary definition of "Straw man":

I just looked it up.
