speaking in the spirit
(Acts 6:7-13)
(…) God filled man with the outer man and dust, and the inner man with the spiritual Spirit of God. So, a person does not have a high price just because he is big, but the price changes depending on what container he puts in it. (…) Consider today's text. Jesus completed salvation on the cross. He searched for the discouraged disciples and made them new creatures in Christ. As the Lord ascended to heaven, He sent the Holy Spirit as a gift to us living in the world. It was poured out on male and female servants.(…) At Peter's Holy Spirit-filled sermon, 3,000 people a day, or 5,000 people on some days, repented and resolved to revive the church. Seven deacons were selected and established to work hard for almsgiving and evangelism. At that time, among the seven chosen deacons, Stephen was a deacon. (…) Stephen has nothing to fear or envy in the world. He is an ordinary, fearful, ordinary person. But the world was struggling with him. Because he is speaking by the Holy Spirit.
First of all, you cannot experience history.
(…) Stephen's work was fair in every way, and there was no fault with it. All of his work was centered on the public interest and service, so there was no point of selfishness. Stephen's work was a work that was done with divine experience. So I couldn't stand the work that Stephen was showing.(…)
Second, I couldn't be bothered.
(…) When Stephen was preaching the Word in the fullness of the Holy Spirit, people clamored for discussion. But he could not refute Stephen's words. It was not because Stephen was coherent in logic or skillful in speech. Because Stephen spoke the truth, proclaimed the commands of God, and spoke with a burning passion for the salvation of souls. (…) The Holy Spirit blesses us. make it worthwhile It saves my soul and makes those who hear it worthwhile. I hope to be able to speak with the Holy Spirit.
Third, I couldn't be trusted.
In the world of fists, we humbly surrender and obey in front of strong people. But the world of faith, the world of faith, is not like that. We just have to surrender to Stephen's words, but we mobilize false witnesses. The power was bought and Stephen was arrested. He was arrested and threatened with death. His face became like that of an angel. It was a symbol of truth. It seems to hold the truth until the very end. It is a symbol of piety. It is a symbol of peace.(…) Only the evangelist who speaks with the Holy Spirit can go to the place of victory. The Holy Spirit works to make us stand in a proud place. He works so that we can communicate with the face of an angel. Speak in the Spirit. The Lord makes us serve in a place of pride. Amen.
