I haven't got the slight less idea of what you are talking about
'Tis not of great import. Please do not henceforth worry thyself overmuch upon this matter. Surely the fog shall have receded once the daylight cometh.

God bless you, my dear brother. :giggle:

John 4:14-15 (LSB) "But whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst--ever; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.”
15 The woman *said to Him, “Sir, give me this water, so I will not be thirsty nor come back here to draw.”


As a matter of discussion, can we be sincere and respond to either of the following two questions?

1) Are you still thirsty for something more that you thought you would find when you became a Christian for the first time?

2) How do you drink out of the well, and where is this "well"?

Jesus said you won't thirst, if we's thirsty we's in the wrang place, we's not what we's s'pose to be, we's not doing [being] what we's s'pose to be doing [being.]

We do have the water Jesus promised, the water of life. But it is not springing up into everlasting life. It's not flowing out of our bellies in rivers. We've got a lid on it, there is a cork on the bottle stopping it from overflowing.

We's not BAPTIZED in the Holy Ghost.

We have Him and He has us but we are not thoroughly dunked in Him, immersed.

You say but He'll make me speak with other tongues, I don't want that. Why on earth would you not want to speak with other tongues?

People will say you are bonkers, they will say you have gone off the rails, you have got all fanatical.

Cut to the chase dear brothers and sisters.

Desire Him greatly, long for Him, if you don't love Him enough, ask Him to cause you to love Him ... He understands all that, He KNOWS we don't love Him.

Holy Spirit my heart yearns for Thee
Holy Spirit abide in me
make me clean oh make me pure
I must know the double cure


Ne'er my trust would be in vain
nought to lose and all to gain
take my life my self my soul
burn the chaff and make me whole


Holy Spirit be my Guide
Holy Spirit my doors open wide
make me to know Thy will divine
Holy Spirit be Thou mine.
