Let's all get along good folks. Will Rogers never met a man he did not like. We can be like will. I didn't realise that he was gay.
Whatever you said...everyone knows you are a lying jerk. That's a bold assertion. Point out where you think I lied. Well?

You know better than that. I never knew a man that liked all men that he met. Bill was somewhat special?

A question, at death, does the soul go directly to Heavon, or wait until Judgement Day? Both Jesus and Apostle Paul say the spirit goes to be with God at death. You interpret it that way, but it can’t be so, or there would be no reason for judgement, millennium or resurrection… That statement your interpretation. God says every one's ways are right to themselves. That's why you think I'm wrong and I know you are. While you’re at it, preach me up some optics knowledge that you have too…

Let's all get along good folks. Did you know that is Scriptural? There are a Few Scriptures which teach those who believe the Bible we Christians are to agree and speak the same thing. If you want I will post support.

…where did you hear or learn about the Holy Spirit? I’ve leaned mostly by evaluated experience, gradually, and over a pretty long period of time. Still learnin’ too.

Maybe some here have not achieved your level of communication and sincerely would like to have better insights into what God would have us do. I think RHClark and krp both have strong insight regarding this matter, and they have both shared that insight on this thread. I certainly appreciate their insight on these types of threads. I think that trust and confidence in Jesus for salvation is paramount, and I think that trust and confidence in the Holy Spirit for guidance is tantamount.

antlers,
What do you think about the example of someone's mind or Satan answering their prayer? Whose spirit led the lady to drop modestness?

I do garner a lot from most all that contribute to these threads.

I think that when one seeks God the Father/God the Son/God the Holy Spirit with all of their heart, soul, mind, and might…that they will most certainly find God the Father/God the Son/God the Holy Spirit. That’s the assurance that is given by the Creator. And the result of ‘that’ will be evidenced by the goodness (or ‘fruit’)…however it is manifested…that it produces.

So the holy spirit directed Antlers to drag up mythical tales like Sampson? But it didn't direct a Mennonite woman to change her dress code? This place is good for a laugh. Talk to a 100 different Xtians and get a hundred different answers ...but they will all tell you they are channelling the same spirit. Strange how the spirit didn't tell Xtians that geo-centrism was false...countless Xtians swallowed the theology that earth was the centre of the universe...that same brand of faith still pushes biblical talking snakes and donkeys and virgin birth after magical impregnation by... a spirit. Thomas Jefferson Letter to John Adams, April 11, 1823; "And the day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus,
by the supreme being as his father in the womb of a virgin will be
classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of
Jupiter. But we may hope that the dawn of reason and freedom of
thought in these United States will do away all this artificial scaffolding..."

The Holy Spirit is our spiritual link/communication with God/Christ, the only way to have a personal relationship with Christ. Also we can join that spirit with each other for strength. Do attendees at an evangelical spectacle run by Hinn or Copeland join the spirit for added strength? What separates that crowd from the same claims made here?

What someone wears isn't a spiritual influence, it's a peer, societal expression. The obvious influence of the example above was a person of perceived authority suggesting material change and finally pulling the 'seek the Holy Spirit' card... a very passive aggressive way to achieve a goal that isn't a spiritual issue but a worldly one.
Using the Lord's name in vain comes to mind.
Religion itself is world based, emphasis on our mortal life. The Trinity emphasis on our spiritual life.
We don't have the experience of Jesus, who existed in the complete knowledge of both while here. So we muddle through it.

Its been my experience that Satan doesnt call us ... we call him. At least in my life, I'm here to admit when there was trouble or idiocy afoot , it was because I went lookin', every time. Even knowing better didnt stop me.

It’s all good. My comment was directed more towards the notion that everything should and must be filtered through the Bible, and that God only reveals Himself to us through the Bible, and that we wouldn’t even know right from wrong without the Bible. Jesus says the Holy Spirit will bear witness of Jesus. Agreed, but He says A LOT more about what the Holy Spirit will do besides just that. I know folks who put their "spiritual" experience above God's Word, even if it is contrary to God's Word. They tell me they prayed and this is God's answer. They prayed alright and got the answer from their mind or Satan. Ringman, how do ‘you’ determine that ‘they’ got the answer from their mind or Satan…instead of from the Holy Spirit…? Do you hold your experience or opinion above the Bible? I have trust and confidence that the Holy Spirit…who is clearly powerful enough to raise Jesus from the dead…is powerful enough to guide Jesus’ followers in such a way that there is no doubt that the guidance that they are receiving from the Holy Spirit is actually coming from the Holy Spirit, and not from their own mind, or Satan, or the constant bombardment of thoughts and impulses from a variety of other sources. I have absolute trust and confidence that Jesus does what He says He does, whether it’s pertaining to salvation, or whether it’s pertaining to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. I don’t doubt my salvation. At all. And I don’t doubt the guidance of the Holy Spirit either. At all. What’s the point of having a Holy Spirit if you convince yourself that you have to filter all of the guidance of the Holy Spirit…described by Jesus Himself as a comforter and an advocate and a teacher and a helper and a counselor and a guide “to all of the truth”…through a book that didn’t even exist when the Holy Spirit first started providing guidance to Jesus’ Apostles…? Do you not think that God wants you to be led individually and personally by what the Holy Spirit is telling you specifically about ‘your’ life, right now…? And, do you doubt and question your salvation as much as you ‘seem’ to doubt and question the guidance of the Holy Spirit…? The first example that came to mind was a young couple who started coming to our church. They moved to our little town. They were Mennonites. The wife dressed very modestly due to obeying God’s Word about women dressing modestly. An older couple, who were a retired Mennonite pastor and his wife talked to them about her attire. When they met resistance the older couple suggested, “Well, take some time and pray about it. The Holy Spirit will guide you.” The next time I saw the young wife she was wearing a sleeveless, low cut blouse. I guess a prostitute might see it as modest. There’s no way the Holy Spirit would “lead” this couple in this direction. This example gives you the idea. Now I would like to ask you, where did you hear or learn about the Holy Spirit? Maybe some here have not achieved your level of communication and sincerely would like to have better insights into what God would have us do. This is a perfect example why someone needs the Holy Spirit to guide them. You Ringman and your church are so concerned about getting the scripture right and so judgmental of anyone who doesn't see it the same as you that the Holy Spirit had to get that woman away from you and that Church.

KB No, I want to see pictures of that Mennonite girl that came to church with Ringman. When I was in school we had some Pentecostal girls that were good looking even without makeup and wearing those long blue denim skirts.
