"However, you did not have a vision of seeing the Lord Jesus Christ. What you had experienced was not the same as what Saul had experienced."
WOW!!!!!! I did not realise you were there too and can tell me EXACTLY what I was experiencing! Thanks for the insight of things I missed. I have had MANY more experiences of jesus since this one, too many too record and each one has ministered His grace, His love and brought me closer to him. So if that is the enemy he may need therapy cos he is pushing me in wrong direction.
Are you still trying to do the best you can in keeping that list not to sin or not? If not, then that direction was nowhere but making Christ a minister of sin which God would forbid.
"If you had a problem with pride before, lean on Jesus Christ, to keep the foot of pride away from you now so that you may discern the spirit of error from the Spirit of Truth within you so that the word of Truth does not depart from your mouth."
Pride? It is not me trying to correct another person based on the little they know about another person and based on their OWN understanding of scripture. I gave you a testimony of something I experienced. My own PERSONAL testimony. Your first response was to correct me with your knowledge of bible. You didnt enquire about anything else, you didnt ask me how old I was or what I learnt at the time. No...you just wanted to correct on a few words on the forum. You do know that knowledge puffs up right? I only correct when the Holy Spirit promps me too as He knows the FULL story and is very capable of convicting without my help.
When you spot a trespass, you would address it by the scripture without inquiring about anything else, don't you?
"Jesus does not need to do something dramatic to you when you are already a believer and thus He can speak to you through the Holy Spirit in you."
No He doesnt need to....but in my case He LOVES to.
Not like that, He doesn't. His word says so. Otherwise you would not be able to test the spirits from the real indwelling Holy Spirit.
"The dramatic comes when seducing spirits seek to take your eyes off of the Son to their presence by their signs which are felt in the flesh."
I dont feel them "in the flesh" I feel it in my spirit, the same as if I walked into a room full of demons I would feel it in my spirit...yet they are still OUTSIDE of me.
Seeing how you had testified of a presence filling the room, that would be indicative of feeling it outside of you and thus in the flesh by having a sensation in the flesh of feeling the presence in the room.
Just so you know.. seducing spirits mean just that...they can seduce with plkeasant semsations and feelings as well and so sensing demons in the room as some sort of negative feeling in your spirit is not a sure fire way of testing the spirits in the room.
The only way to know the real Holy Spirit is by Him dwelling within you. Jesus said that and He meant it. He also said that the world receive Him not because it seeth Him not, which is indicative of the rudiment in the world in how they see other spirits by the signs they bring when visiting as in the case of a medium or those in the occult.
Since God asks us to abstain from all appearances of evil under the New Covenant, He will do the same if we are to do that as well. His Presence can never be like it was felt in the Old Covenant at the Temple or in a place because we are the temple of the living God and why the Holy Spirit will only reside in us as testimony of that New Covenant.
So any manifestation of God will only bring about this good report.
1 Corinthaias 14:[SUP]
24 [/SUP]But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all: [SUP]
25 [/SUP]And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and
report that God is in you of a truth.
Any deviation from that as placing a manifestation to be felt in the world, then that is the spirit of the antichrist taking your eyes off of the Son in relating to God by... even if it was for a moment.
