evening July 23rd, 2008
Scripture Ref: I Cor 12; 1 Thes 2:7; Acts 6-9
Topic: Holy Spirit
Notes:
- Role of Holy Spirit as comforter, guide, restrainer
- Blasphemy of the Holy Spirit unpardonable; Spirit leads us to
Christ
- Tongues in public setting to edify, sometimes abused
- Story of Billy Graham at Evangel; tongues/interpretation
completed sermon
- Spirit first fell on disciples in upper room, marked by
supernatural occurrences including tongues
- Seven men chosen to serve widows; Stephen stoned, others
scattered to preach Christ. People saved, healed, Paul sent
and they received the Holy Spirit
- Saul and Damascus Road conversion, received Spirit three days
later
- We’re not seeking tongues (gifts). We should be led by the
spirit, loving and doing what He asks.
