What do you know about the Holy Spirit personally?
Have you heard more about The Father and Jesus, the son? Why?
I will be perfectly honest...I have not gone to church in years and I have never read the bible, but I know that Jesus is in my life. If he were not, I could never have overcome my problems, I would not have the wonderful life I have today. I pray day and night and as long as Jesus knows how grateful I am and that I am willing to pay his good work forward, I know he will be by my side.
ephesians 2:8 says,For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God. That is the beauty of salvation! We can't earn it, but I want to pass it forward because of the gift I have received.
The Holy Spirit is the true self -- the real me -- the child of God, within. This is the part of us that was created in God's image and likeness.
So many Christians get a distorted picture of the "trinity." Part of this may come from the delusion that they are inherently Homo sapiens. But they seem not to realize that God's image and likeness is not that of Homo sapiens. God wants His children back; not the bodies they wear.
Jesus is our brother. In a very real sense, he's like an "older" brother, even though we are all the same age -- timeless. Bless him for his unceasing love for us in helping in the rescue. He truly does deserve our devotion.
When the Holy Spirit (true self) is alive in you, miracles happen. You can no longer be a victim -- ever! Seas part, mountains move -- all of what Jesus promised. When the Holy Spirit is alive, you no longer need your Homo sapiens shell. You may still operate it, but you can see just fine without it. You can think just fine without the human brain you possess. This truly is the kingdom of heaven within.

It's the central theme of Christian doctrine that unless someone believes in Jesus they are going to hell when they die, which is primarily based on John 3:16 "For God so loved the World........".According to Judaism there is no original sin and nothing to be saved from. A common prayer...

Belief without the Holy Spirit?If what many Christians these days claim is true, that it is impossible to come to have faith in the biblical god without the intervention and interpretation of the Holy Spirit, why was the great commission necessary? Why leave conversion and...

What if you had to share the Gospel without the Bible?Think about the early Church! It did not have the Bible to help them spread the word of God! If we did not have the Bible how would you share the good news of Jesus Christ?

Two Christians, both led by the Holy Spirit in understanding. Differ on meanings of the Bible. Who?I stopped trying to determine just who is led by the Holy Spirit. I take folks at their word. But they differ. The 4 Gospels differ per perspective. Isn't this just clear as a bell that God works...

If you believe we are created in the image and likeness of God, do you believe we should be like GodGrowing up through many different churches I was taught (by church leaders) not to question church leaders authority, to stay in your box and everything outside of that box shouldn't be looked upon....
