DIVINE CONFIRMATION AND MANIFESTATION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

Many Christians firmly believe that

they are saved and are assured of having eternal life, based on a few
simple actions taken in compliance with a few selected verses from
the Bible. They further presume certain privileges and rights,
reserved for the children of God. They even go as far as likening
themselves to Jesus and calling Him their elder brother. They claim
that Christ is living in them but there is no evidence. There is no
evidence of godliness in their lives. They claim to have received the
Holy Spirit but there is no manifestation of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus commanded His disciples: “Go
into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. 16“He
who has believed and has been baptized shall be saved; but he who has
disbelieved shall be condemned. 17“These
signs will accompany those who have believed: in My name they will
cast out demons, they will speak with new tongues; 18they
will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly poison, it
will not hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will
recover.” Mark 16:15,16. Jesus said: ”These signs will accompany
them…”

When the Holy Spirit was given on the
day of Pentecost, those who received the baptism in the Holy Spirit
spoke in tongues. Thereafter all those who received the Holy Spirit,
spoke in tongues. If you are baptized in the Holy Spirit, you will
speak in tongues. As Peter said in Acts 2:39 “For the promise is
for you and your children and for all who are far off, as many as the
Lord our God will call to Himself.” 

The signs are not a guarantee of
salvation. They are CONFIRMATION that you have believed and received
what was promised. They are confirmation that Jesus is in and with
you, but you must stay WITH Him until the end to have eternal life.

Tongues is given to ALL who receive the
baptism in the Holy Spirit. It is a sign to the unbeliever, that the
person who never learned a tongue speaks and prays in a tongue that
was given to him. It is the sign that he has received the Holy
Spirit. The tongue has a purpose. “2For
he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men, but to God. Indeed,
no one understands him; he utters mysteries in the Spirit.” Verse 4
“The one who speaks in a tongue edifies himself.” 1 Corinthians
14:2,4. The Holy Spirit assists him in praying according to the will
of God. We read in Romans 8:26 “In the same way the Spirit also
helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but
the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too
deep for words; 27and
He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is,
because He intercedes for the saints according to the will
of God.” When you pray in a tongue the Spirit prays through
you and you are built up in your spirit. That is why we need to pray
in tongues, we need to pray in the Spirit. Such tongues are not for
interpretation.

God gives Spiritual Gifts to those who
are already baptized in the Holy Spirit. Those gifts are for
edification of the assembly of believers. Such are prophecy and
tongues with interpretation. Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 14:3,4 “But
he who prophesies speaks to men for their edification, encouragement,
and comfort. 4The
one who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but the one who
prophesies edifies the church.”

The indwelling of the Holy Spirit
results in supernatural manifestation of the Spirit in and through
the Spirit filled believer. These are manifestations not invoked but
result from our communion with Jesus. The Holy Spirit will speak to
us, guide us and confirm things to us, tell us things to come, will
give revelations. The born again child of God is led by the Holy
Spirit. His confirmation and direction comes from Jesus, through the
Spirit.

The Holy Spirit baptism confirmed with
the ability to speak in tongues is for all who believe and obey
Jesus, repent and are baptized. Never give up seeking for the Holy
Spirit baptism and never give up praying in tongues once you have
received it. It is your personal power line to edify and build you
up. It is not just for some, but for all who wish to walk in the
Spirit and receive their confirmation and direction from Him. The
signs will FOLLOW. They will not CEASE. They CEASE when the believer
stops following Jesus.

May Jesus bless you.

Confirmation of Salvation

Many Christian believers
claim salvation based on their faith in Jesus and they quote selected
the Bible verses to prove their salvation. Our salvation is not based
only on that which we believe, it is based on our deeds after we have
believed. If we truly believe in Jesus Christ, we must obey His words
and He will give His Holy Spirit in us to guide us into all truth.

The only person that can
tell us whether Jesus is pleased with us and that we are in His will,
is Jesus Christ Himself. He does not leave us in darkness. That is
why He gives His Holy Spirit in us, to teach us and to guide us. The
Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth.

Most Christian believers
do not have the Holy Spirit. They just trust in the faith in Jesus,
but they have no relationship with Jesus. Jesus said:"If you
love me, obey my commands." Go after Jesus, repent and be
baptized in water, be filled with the Holy Spirit, and follow the
guidance of the Holy Spirit. Those who are being led by the Spirit of
God, they are the children of God, not those you just believe that
they are saved, but by the deeds they show that they are no different
from the unbelievers.

Many believers think that
they can claim their salvation based on some Bible verses. Many
believers think that on judgment day they will stand before Jesus and
shake the Bible at Him and tell Him that they are saved based on
their faith, but Jesus will say to those people "Go away I never
knew you you workers of wickedness. The only one who can confirm,
whether Jesus Christ is pleased with us and whether we are walking in
these ways, is Jesus Christ Himself. If you do not have that
relationship with Jesus, if you do not hear His voice and if you are
not guided by the Holy Spirit, then you are lost and doomed, you are
on your way to hell. The only one who can tell you is Jesus Christ.
Go on your knees and seek Jesus until He answers you. Nobody else can
give you any assurance of salvation, no Bible verses, no preacher, no
other person, only Jesus Christ the Living God. He is the final judge
and He does speak. Right now we have the opportunity to seek Him with
all our heart and to hear from Him, right now we can work on our
relationship with Him and we must work out our own salvation with
fear and trembling. Seek Jesus while you can, and hear from Him. Do
not trust in anybody else. Hear from Jesus. He speaks and His sheep
hear His voice.

May Jesus bless you.

No Fear No Worries

The whole world is living in fear, anxiety, uncertainty, uncertainty about tomorrow. It is because they do not have Jesus Christ. If you HAVE Jesus Christ AND you live in the right relationship with Him then you have NOTHING TO FEAR.

Jesus said:”Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all the other things will be added unto you.” Do you HAVE Jesus Christ? Are you living in the right relationship with Him? And are you receiving confirmation from Him that He is pleased with you? If you do, you have nothing to fear.

May Jesus bless you.
