You may deny from now till tomorrow, you yourself know the truth but you are supressing same because of pride and arrogance.

Let us first go into what led to Muhammad being the Holy spirit.

I never said Muhammad is the holy spirit but you have been the one trying to interprete the verse to be referring to Holy spirit. If you are that confused because of the 'spirit' used there, please if the verse is referring to same

1. Has the holy spirit not been in existence? If it has been, expecting another spirit would be a blatant lie and how many spirits would we be having altogether?

2. What new things has it been telling regarding prostitution, fornication etc

3. What is the position of 'another' in that context.

4. Is jesus a comforter or not?

I have been there and even read Auwal87's post. You didnt say anything to my 5 questions and if you are to do that, I will agree that the verse is for holy spirit.

Part of the question is that has the holy spirit been in existence or not and if it has been and another is coming, how many would we be having?

Thanks

No different ;comforter' and that brings my question again

1. Has the holy spirit not been in existence?

2. Since one is already in existence and another is coming to replace Jesus, how man would we be having.

You havent answered my five questions, you were just proving denials.

Re: What Did You Learn At Church Today? by pilgrim1(f): 11:46am On Nov 04, 2007
I look forward to Church this afternoon. smiley

It's been a wonderful blessing to follow through a current series in our local Church on the subject of 'Knowing God' - and last week's was sub-titled: 'God's Full Gift'. Just as the greatest expression of a valued gift is giving one's self, so God has brought us close to Himself - so that we are not of those who see Him as "far off and unreachable".

Ephesians 2:13 -- "But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ."

Blessings. cheesy

In the first place, you and olabowale knew it was not meant for DEBATES, and even though I offered to invite you both to a new thread where we could deal with such issues, you just wanted to keep showing your face. It's all good - for if you had remained a short while more, you go drop your Muslim name and meet salvation in Jesus Christ. grin

Anyhow, here are two replies to summarize your worries:

1 God is our refuge and strength,
       an ever-present help in trouble.

2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
       and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,

3 though its waters roar and foam
       and the mountains quake with their surging.
       Selah

4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
       the holy place where the Most High dwells.

5 God is within her, she will not fall;
       God will help her at break of day.

6 Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall;
       he lifts his voice, the earth melts.

7 The LORD Almighty is with us;
       the God of Jacob is our fortress.
       Selah

8 Come and see the works of the LORD,
       the desolations he has brought on the earth.

9 He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth;
       he breaks the bow and shatters the spear,
       he burns the shields with fire.

10 "Be still, and know that I am God;
       I will be exalted among the nations,
       I will be exalted in the earth."

11 The LORD Almighty is with us;
       the God of Jacob is our fortress.
       Selah

He is always there for us, relax, God is in control. Do not fret, don't over-exhaust your self with worry. Everything will work out for your good. You will make it and get through the situation. He will be glorified and exalted through the result that situation in your life.

Re: What Did You Learn At Church Today? by somze(f): 9:41am On Nov 05, 2007
You're welcome dear
How was your weekend?

37 But soon a fierce storm came up. High waves were breaking into the boat, and it began to fill with water.

38 Jesus was sleeping at the back of the boat with his head on a cushion. The disciples woke him up, shouting, “Teacher, don’t you care that we’re going to drown?”

39 When Jesus woke up, he rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Silence! Be still!” Suddenly the wind stopped, and there was a great calm.

Verse 37
Life can be a storm sometimes . . . if not most times.
The issues are all around you and they even start creeping into your territory, your family, your home, your plans, your goals, your career.
Its like your drowning and there's really nothing you can do

Verse 38
[list]
[li]Make sure Jesus is in your boat  wink make sure he's part of your life or part of that journey, or family, or career plan, or job. If you're a born-again, its most likely he's there.[/li]
[li]Where did you leave Jesus? Is he taking on an active role in your life? Or do you rule your life and only call him when the going is chaotic? How is your relationship with Jesus? [/li]
[li]When you are in a controversy, chaos, problem, situation that you can't handle go first to Jesus. Dont go religiously, go to him with passion, with your problem, go to him crying, shouting. Go to him in sincerity. He is a better solution than the hard drugs, alchohol, cigarrettes, the addiction. [/li]
[li]Some of us have to wake Christ up in our lives, we have fallen so badly. The world has taken us hostage, whereas 1 John 5:3 says we overcame the world - its way of living, sin, flesh - through our Faith in Jesus. Where is your faith right now?[/li]
[/list]

Verse 39
[list]
[li]There is a big difference between a person who has Jesus active in life and a religious christian. Results are obvious. The word of God is not mere words Its power - demonstration, action, the way we live, the way we talk . . . 1 Corinthians 4:20[/li]
[li]Jesus can and will act when called upon, He is merciful. He is faithful even when we are faithless. He has power and authority over ALL things . . . even those little things we think He knows nothing about. He cares. [/li]
[/list]
Re: What Did You Learn At Church Today? by pilgrim1(f): 11:29am On Nov 06, 2007
@somze,

Somehow I feel strongly that you might have been praying for me. That might be a risky guess, but I don't mind to be wrong.

WHY? I'd like to say that you piece above was quite a blessing to me in more ways than I could express here. I couldn't believe how easy my test (part II) went yesterday. Initially, I had gone reluctantly and hoping to make a bit above average - but it was just a walk-over!! cheesy

If not you, then my thanks to whoever has been praying for me - and especially to you for posting the above as a timely blessing and encouragement. You will never be able to quantify how much you did in that exercise - and God will not let you lose your reward!

Please keep up the good job, and many blessings to you! wink

Re: What Did You Learn At Church Today? by pilgrim1(f): 11:23am On Jan 24, 2008
We had a study on the power of words.

Words - written or spoken - have the latent potency to cause reactions. A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it - (Prov. 15:23).

In various ways, we have all experienced various emotions and reactions from words we either read or heard. . . or even said to others. In the midst of it all, can we be truly blessed if the words we speak lack any real values of truth and kindness?

Php. 4:8 & 9

[list]Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.[/list]

Amen.
