| Led By The Spirit This is a very important topic that some folks are having a hard time handling. I really do not know why, but they are having a hard time with it. How are we supposed to be led by someone who is invisible to the sight? Hearing the Holy Spirit is a question debated for centuries and the devil likes it when we debate endlessly over things doctrinally. Why???? The reason is simple. When we debate endlessly we generate hard feelings and attitudes better off left undeveloped. Nothing really gets accomplished and we have to settle upon our old stock in trade answer “agree to disagree.” The enemy likes to keep us busy so we do not do our job of preaching the Gospel There is no doctrinal magnet more divisive than the deity of Christ. He is, was, and will be God incarnated in the flesh. Our Creator has put all things under His feet and he shall be the decisive factor of whether we make into the Kingdom of God. The deity of Christ is also great to determine other things as well as our eternal reward in heaven or hell. It is central to whether or not the church we see is a cult or not. How do we determine if a cult is a cult or not? The doctrinal statement about the deity is really the only fact we need to look at or not. It does not matter if we argue about giving blood or not or saluting the flag or not by anything else. What matters is the statements about Jesus Christ! What doctrine is more critical for salvation? I mean just exactly is the necessary requirement for getting into heaven. Where will I spend eternity? If you only had time to study one doctrine this would be the one doctrine to study. Unless God calls you to a ministry among these tormented purveyors of religion; I cannot see spending more than enough time in their cult to determine whether their religion is right or not. The usual time is relative to how much effort you apply to the problem of “is this where you want me to go Lord?” I apply this logic to everything I see in every corner of the globe and it has stood the test of time, and gave me the solace I was looking for everywhere I went. How do I get to Heaven? I went to China and thought about that question as I faced a Buddhist monk. I asked him the same question. I am now in the heart of Mormon country in Arizona. “I do not know, Kevin, nobody knows.” No cultists have been able to answer the simple question about what must I do to get to heaven, and yet the favorite book of Martin Luther gave it to me rather simply. Rom 10:13 says: 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. If salvation is something you can do then what did Jesus die for? It has to be something He did and we believe. Are you led by the Spirit or are you led by some other way???? |
