“The wind bloweth where it listeth…”

“…the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as [H]e will.”  (1 Corinthians 12)

“But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost…And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost…Then fell [Sapphira] down straight way at his feet and yielded up the ghost…”  (Acts 5)

“Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men. And whosoever speaketh a word against the Holy Ghost, shall not be forgiven unto men. And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come.”  (Matthew 12)

 

Reader, we are not teaching anything that is Anti-Trinity, rest assured in that. We would die before speaking against the doctrine of the Tri-une Godhead. With that said, it is clear that the Holy Spirit has a temperment All His Own.  It is the fool that messes with the Holy Ghost.  Please note that in this context, the Third (3rd) Person of the Godhead is called Holy Ghost and not Holy Spirit.  We cannot be dogmatic on this thought but is He called the Holy Spirit when He is pleased and called the Holy Ghost when He is not? I know not the answer to that question.

Reader, Paul, when on his missionary journeys, he would map out his plan.  BUT in two (2) cases that are recorded, The Holy Ghost told Paul not to go where he was planning to go. One might think about the souls in the lands that Paul was forbidden to go. Remember beloved, God is Sovereign over HIS Salvation and is free to gift that Salvation to whom He will (John 5); And  also,  “I will have mercy upon whom I will have mercy…”  (Romans 9).  Salvation belongs to God and He may do with it as He pleases, understand that and you will understand a great attribute of God and You will see God in a much greater aspect.

In the third (3rd) passage above, we find a husband and wife team pretending to give all their money to the church, when in fact, they held some money back.  Holding their money back was their right, but pretending or rather LYING about their offering offende the Holy Ghost greatly and what did the Holy Ghost do?  The same thing He did when Uzzah touched the Arc of the Covenant; The Holy and Sovereign Ghost of Christ killed them!!!  He did so as to set forth an example to all believers;  the example is meant to teach us, DO NOT TRY THE HOLY GHOST.  We are told to test the spirits, but beloved, DO NOT TEST OR TEMPT THE HOLY GHOST.

It was the Holy Spirit that came upon Samson and gave him the strength to destroy God’s enemies.  It was the Holy Spirit that was given David and David, with the power of the Holty Spirit upon him, he killed a lion and a bear and jumped a wall….David was every bit Samson’s equal.  The Selfsame Spirit came upon both and strengthened both in likewise manner.  Did you just learn something new?  Give God Glory and praise for teaching us and revealing His Great Glory with us.

The charismatic people put much focus upon the Holy Ghost, but just as many persons believe in an unScriptural Christ, likewise the Charismatics believe in and have affection for a ghost that is not the Holy Ghost.

These carnal believers pretend to speak in tongues (there are books and tapes one can learn from…silliness and nonsense), they work each other up into a frenzy, they are “slain in the Spirit” and even bark like dogs as some unholy ghost “fills them.” Most of the time, the tongue talker, usually a women, an alpha woman, will speak in tongues. I can interpret what she is babbling and that is, “Look at me, Look at me, Look at me and put me on a pedestal… hurry up and prop me up on a pedestal….”  that is the interpretation of most female tongue talkers, I lie not.  This type of crazy person also would write poems and speak as Christ in the first Person.  Reader, I know these types, I can spot them a mile away….lots of jewelry, they where lots of jewelry, profiled they are.

Reader, be certain to give the Holy Spirit His due attention.  If you can grasp this next statement, your life will be changed:  What Christ was/is to the disciples, the Holy Spirit is to you and me or could be, if you would get out of His Way.

In summary: The Holy Ghost is Co-Equel in the Godhead. The Holy Ghost is Lord,  the Holy Ghost is Sovereign,  the Holy Ghost loves you with a deadly jealousy, find comfort in His Divinely Tempermental Jealousy over you.
