Religion & Spirituality
Acts 1:8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses.
Being HIS witness is putting HIM on display in our lives Just as Jesus put his Father on display
John 14:9 If you have seen me you have seen the Father…
John 8:37 and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth.
Witness of the Holy Spirit on earth now- John 16:13,14 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. He will glorify me (Put me on display), inasmuch as he will receive what is from me and show it to you. We receive from Holy Spirit to put that on display with him to the world.
Romans 8:15 but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” The same Spirit Himself is bearing witness with our spirit that we are the offspring of God… and that if we are together suffering with him we should together be being glorified with him (our life and his on display together).
WHY do we bear witness and HOW do we bear witness? If we know the why we will know the how. The WHY is because there is a new life, a new reality of our I AM that bears witness to the reality of God’s I AM in the earth. There is a range of activities that are the HOW as a witnesses to his reality.
But some doctrinal practices that manipulate peoples’ emotions are actually an untrue witness. They put other things on display instead of Jesus (fake miracles and prosperity - 1Thessalonians 5:19-22).
John 3:21 But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”
The zealous but toxic witness that distorts the purpose of The Holy Spirit by bringing condemnation and guilt instead of Holy Spirit’s mandate of speaking his conviction of light and truth. (John 16:8)
John 3:17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world may be being (aorist passive tense) saved through him. (Yonggi Cho).
1Corinthians 4:4… do not pronounce judgment before the time, before the Lord comes, who will bring to light the things now hidden in darkness and will disclose the purposes of the heart. Then each one will receive his commendation from God.
Sharing your faith
1Peter 3:15 always being prepared to make an answer to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect.
God bearing witness to our witness - Paul and Barnabus bear witness to the Gentiles.
Acts 14:3 So they remained for a long time, speaking boldly for the Lord, who bore witness to the word of his grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
Sharing a conscious partnership with Jesus
Holy Spirit feels, sees, hears and knows what we do. We share the knowing with him.
