Featured can One Be Charasmatic And NOT Be In Word of faith?

Yeshua, please don't forget post #8 ... we would like some explanations. Thanks.

I have and also I believe DHK has.

 

These true movements of the Spirit have been happening all over the world on a daily basis,
but just not in your living room.

Many deceived and emotional Christians in many deceived churches do not cancel out da blue.

This is your opinion, and IMO you are playing God ... telling people what God can and cannot do!
.

 

Yes, of course, and this is your thread and you ARE addressing the OP.

But, I, on the other hand, am only interested in (and interested in showing) that God never stopped doing His SWM,
and never stopped preferring that His SWM be used in accompanying Jesus' precious gospel message to CONFIRM it.

"The Lord gave me something," "The Lord said to me," "I saw in a vision," "God said to me in a dream," etc., etc. This is not God speaking but perhaps another spirit speaking or just self speaking imagination, but not God. God speaks through His Word. The canon of revelation is closed. If revelation were open, and this were true, then you would be duty bound to go to every Charismatic who has any one of these "little revelations" and ask them what it was so you could record it and then add it to the volume of Scripture that we already have. (Of course there is a warning about adding to the Word of God already given in the last chapter of Revelation).

And all this added revelation would come from all different theological viewpoints, most who don't care about doctrine, but rather on experience. Many of them would be complete heresy. And you would add them to your "Charismatic Book of God's Revelation" to mankind.
Isn't that hilarious? But the fact is that God has already spoken in his word. And we have it today--the completed Word of God. We don't need extra revelation. We are commanded to "contend for the faith once delivered to the saints." It has already been delivered. We contend for that which we already have--66 books of Scripture.

People who speak in tongues and seek after other "experiences" generally run their lives on their emotions. We are to gauge our lives by the Word of God. It is our standard; not our emotions. It is not "what I feel like," but rather, what does God, according to His Word, expect of me?

Here is what cannot do:
He cannot lie.
He cannot go against his nature.
He cannot go against his own promises.
He cannot go against his written Word.

It is God that has told us what he does and cannot do.
You have the wrong perspective of God.
He is not a genie in a bottle that you can put in your pocket and pull out at any time for your own selfish purposes. You have a selfish view of God.

 

Just a note to the above post...In His written Word, He speaks of visions/dreams in Acts 2:17-18. He also speaks in the Old and New Testament to His people through dreams in visions!
We are in the last days! So who are you to say that dreams and visions have ceased when he said they have not!

 

Hebrews 1:1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;

If you understand the above passage correctly He did stop speaking in visions, etc.
He speaks through His Son. His Son is revealed to us through His Word.
The author is making a contrast, not redundantly repeating himself.

 

Who is he? ...
He is one who is deceived by 1900 years of a false doctrine of the man-led churches.

These doctrines are the result of:
-- Satan's lies and deceptions
-- man having his own fleshly, unspiritual agenda
-- man having an inherited sin nature

These are an extremely potent combo to fight against God.
I know, I know ... Satan cannot PREVAIL against da choich ... it's still here, ain't it?

I really am growing rather tired of spiritual morons in general.
The Spirit cannot help those who are NOT open to the Truth.
Instead, they prefer to stay filled with error and UNBELIEF.
They are deceived into listening to Satan instead of the Spirit of God.
IMO, the salvation of some of them is in question ... do they have the Holy Spirit?

Oh that is precious! :laugh:

1900 years of history. 1900 years of the world's greatest missionary movements, revivals, evangelistic movements, and evagelist-7 thinks he has it all!
Have you ever seen such arrogance.

Have you ever considered just one example?
William Carey is considered the father of our modern day missionary movement, and BTW he was a Calvinist and believed in the depravity of man. In his humble beginnings as a shoe cobbler he had an earnest desire for the lost and the Lord put on his heart missions, and then directed him to India. There he established Serampore Bible College and translated the Bible or portions thereof into 44 different languages. His graduates have won thousands to the Lord, and have established hundreds of churches, who in turn have won and discipled many more believers.

And what has evangelist done for the Lord in comparison.
Precious little!

 

What an absolute pile of GARBAGE the above is.

Awaken, I just wish to warn you! ... I've explained all of this to them before!

God often gives double prophecies, meanings, etc. to things.
And this can easily be the case with Joel 2 and Acts 2.

The church in general is coming more and more to see that 1 Cor 13:10 has been drastically misused.
But, not to the enemies of God ... they choose to continue to fight against what has been shown to them.

All deeper spiritual Truth must be revealed by the Spirit of God!
Historically, man has always been a spiritual idiot.
Thus, his only way to know spiritual Truth is directly from God Himself.

Read the word all you want ... Jews do, Muslims do, atheists do, and many etc.
AND THEY DON'T HAVE THE FIRST CLUE WHAT THE WORD IS TEACHING!
.

 

I said "a (i.e. one) false doctrine" ... not all of the church's doctrines!

Awaken, see what you're dealing with here?

You do not have a very firm foundation at all because of ...

In several cases, you have NO idea which set of verses are actually true.

You might want to finish the sixth grade before you start calling anyone a moron and questioning someone's salvation.
