People, get ready
There's a train a-coming
You don't need no ticket
You just get on board
All you need is faith
To hear the diesels humming
Don't need no ticket
You just thank the Lord
People get ready
For the train to Jordan
Picking up passengers
From coast to coast
Faith is the key
Open the doors and board them
There's room for all
Amongst the loved the most
There ain't no room
For the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt all mankind
Just to save his own
Have pity on those
Whose chances are thinner
'Cause there's no hiding place
From the kingdom's throne
That is the same as GOD because of the Belief of ONE MAN, He declared it as righteousness. That one man was Abraham, and that is how GOD saves every man.
Romans 4:3 (CSBBible)
[SUP]3 [/SUP] For what does the Scripture say? Abraham believed God,
and it was credited to him for righteousness.
Malachi 3:6 (CSBBible)
[SUP]6 [/SUP] "Because I, the LORD, have not changed,
you descendants of Jacob have not been destroyed.

I ate from the tree of life 40 years ago 
Revelation 22:1-4 (NKJV)
[SUP]1 [/SUP] And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.
[SUP]2 [/SUP] In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
[SUP]3 [/SUP] And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him.
[SUP]4 [/SUP] They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads.
Ephesians......be continually filled with the spirit the following clauses indicate one whonis continually filled....yes one cannot be continually filled.....for example....one clause is to be thankful for ALL things....how many believers are thankful for ALL THINGS....those who are not are not continually FILLED......this in no way, shape or form determines salvation......and the spirit has been dealt IN MEASURE
The word isnt church in the Greek. It's ekklesia. In Hebrew it's congregation. There was only Jewish synagogues until Pentecost. But, this has nothing to do with what I said.
Jesus came first to His own people. That's what I said. But, His mission as Saviour of the world wasn't known until Holy Spirit was poured out on Gentiles too. Then Jesus appears to Paul, and Paul receives the revelation of the church.
Wasn't what I said that we aren't in and out of Holy Spirit? Jesus said that living water comes out of our belly. That's exactly how the prophetic word happens in prophecy. Power comes as up from our belly, we may hear a few words, we start to speak and it's a bold word from the Lord.
But, in being born again and baptized in Spirit, our Spirit should be controlling the soulish part of our being when we are matured. It's a fixed position. We aren't a flesh being, but spiritual. It's not putting our mind on the Lord, but that's a good thing to do. We can be filled by speaking in our prayer language while being engaged in other things. The results are righteousness, peace, and joy.
But, I do agree that we aren't full of the Godhead bodily.

Just something I forgot. The disciples didn't really believe as the " I know that I know that I know way" until He appeared to them after His ressurection. Jesus forgives them commissions them, and breathes His Holy Spirit into them. The Spirit of Christ. That which we all experience with faith. . .
