    And once again I did not say anything that you just posted about.
    I said nothing about baptists who deny the work of the Spirit

    My comment is that the Holy Spirit works in the lives of believers. The Holy Spirit guides believers in their understanding of Scripture.

    This is why I am saying that you need to begin study with prayer. The "meat" of the gospel is not something that can be reached apart from the work of the Spirit in the lives of each believer. It is not a bunch of doctrines that lead to more doctrines. It is the work of God.

    Don't discount the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer or in spiritual understanding. The Father and Son sent the Spirit as a "Helper" - not just to guide the Apostles in what to write but to guide us.

    The Holy Spirit guides us to all spiritual truth. We cannot claim to have arrived at spiritual truth in any other way. Even Peter's confession of Christ was of the Spirit.

    Yes. Very happy.

    Plus I admitted I was wrong when you thought I wouldn't. That was almost as good as the salt rub you told me about :Biggrin .... except for the admitting I had made an error in my reply part :( .
