Did anybody happen to notice that they had just received the kingdom before they were sent out? The kingdom of G-d being righteousness, PEACE and joy, IN the Holy Ghost? The kingdom is a PERSON. Peace

The ancient lack of understanding about what constitutes a "Person" is the major source of confusion and misdirection about the Holy Spirit. Even today, most do not know what a "Person" actually is. They attach it to a physical body, but what makes a person a "Person" is their unique consciousness (Spirit), NOT their body.

They marveled at the gracious words that came out of his mouth.

There is only one way you can hear the voice of a God and that is when you are still((at peace) Be at peace and know that I am God. Yes of cause I'm taking it out of the context of your comprehension of the scriptures.
Ironically, you look to the "Written Word" to know what he said.

You don't see any contradiction there?

I will actually agree with you there. He was greeting them as they were holed up in the upper room, hiding.

I actually look to the moon, the stars and the sun, the mountains, the hills, the birds, the animals, the oceans and all that is in the them too. So what is the point you and Rbbi are trying to make?. Even the seeds I plant in my garden speak volumes, volumes more than you could ever know, and my 2 beautiful dogs and the squirrels they chase around the yard speak more than anything you would hear in a fundy Sunday church

No. It is NOT necessary for everything to be the infallible, inerrant truth for SOME of it to be true. I realize this is a concept you do not understand that is why you do NOT test the spirit of anything against the Holy Spirit of Agape described in detail by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount and in 1 Cor 13 and Galatians 5.

As you have been told MANY times, the fact that the book is USEFUL when confirmed by the Spirit does NOT make it authority in it's own right.

Peace be unto YOU

Et "coom" spiritu tuo.

(CD censors do not allow me to spell the Latin word. Must resort to phonetics.)

Peace is standing against all the unrest that abounds.
