Jesus did not baptize anybody with the Holy Spirit while He was on earth. HE BAPTIZES NOW in the Spirit.
HOW TO RECEIVE & ACTIVATE THE GIFT OF SPEAKING IN TONGUES.
Thread: 1/15
Jesus did not baptize anybody with the Holy Spirit while He was on earth. HE BAPTIZES NOW in the Spirit.
See Matth 3v11, Mark 1v7-8, Luke 3v16, John 1v33
"He shall baptize you with the Holy Spirit". But nobody was baptized with the Spirit while He was on earth, until after He ascended-Acts 1v5-8
Why is this truth important? Because for the most part Christians have developed this habit of separating salvation from every other experience in Christ.
Just as Jesus is the Savior; Jesus is the Healer; Jesus is the baptizer in the Spirit!
What about the baptism of the Spirit? Is He now holding it back from us?
Jesus is God's best. The best gift God could have given anyone is JESUS. So if God didn't hold back Jesus from us, He's not holding back anything else!
Luke 11:11, 13 CEV
God is not holding back. "He that asks, receives". It means when we ask of Him, He gives us without hesitation.
So what happens when you ask? You received. But why don't you speak in tongues?
1. Their assumptions. They suppose that they have to FEEL something, like shouting & rolling on the floor. But Bible didn't tell us that.
2. Sin consciousness. They feel they're too filthy & unworthy to receive the HOLY Spirit.
4. Some feel that when the Spirit comes, He takes hold of our mouth & does the speaking. No! You do the speaking!
He is our teacher. We speak, He gives the utterance - the ability to speak well.
Let's see something in 1 Cor 14v14-15: the word "I WILL" is used 4 times!
"They were filled with the Spirit & BEGAN TO SPEAK in tongues.." Acts 2v4
Even though we've received the gift of the Spirit, we can neglect it. 1 Tim 4v14
It's up to us to stir up the gift of God which we have received! Stir it up! Don't be afraid! 2 Tim 1v6
Just like the house of Cornelius, He's willing to fall on you now if you'll yield in faith (Acts 10v44-46) "While Peter yet spoke the Holy Spirit fell!"
I.e "God's Word says it, & I do it, not because I feel so but because the Word says so" that's faith!
If you need someone to pray with you, my DM Is open. I'm not the Baptizer in the Spirit, no man is, Jesus is!
Shalom 💕

A TINY THREAD ON NON-ACCEPTANCE OF ATHEISTS IN SOME HINDU HOLY BOOKS.
Many RW Hindus with confused identity think that Hinduism accepts Atheists.
What do some of the Hindu sacred texts say on this topic? Let's see.
Shri Krishna was 100% clear on importance of Shaastras as we already know.
Shri Rama was also clear on what should be done to atheists.

Maharaaj Manu on Atheists.
Bhagvan Ved Vyas Ji in Shanti Parva of Mahabharata said this to his son Shukadeva regarding Atheists.

We know that elite institutions like the one Flier was in (partial) charge of rely on irrelevant status markers like private school education, whiteness, legacy, and ability to charm an old white guy at an interview.
Harvard's discriminatory policies are becoming increasingly well known, across the political spectrum (see, e.g., the recent lawsuit on discrimination against East Asian applications.)
It's refreshing to hear a senior administrator admits to personally opposing policies that attempt to remedy these basic flaws. These are flaws that harm his institution's ability to do cutting-edge research and to serve the public.
Harvard is being eclipsed by institutions that have different ideas about how to run a 21st Century institution. Stanford, for one; the UC system; the "public Ivys".
As a dean of a major academic institution, I could not have said this. But I will now. Requiring such statements in applications for appointments and promotions is an affront to academic freedom, and diminishes the true value of diversity, equity of inclusion by trivializing it. https://t.co/NfcI5VLODi

It\u2019s hard to fear a problem when you are making progress on it\u2014even if progress is imperfect and slow.
Action relieves anxiety.

We often avoid taking action because we think "I need to learn more," but the best way to learn is often by taking action.

1/ Some initial thoughts on personal moats:
Like company moats, your personal moat should be a competitive advantage that is not only durable—it should also compound over time.

4/ Before the arrival of recorded music, what used to be scarce was the actual music itself — required an in-person artist.
After recorded music, the music itself became abundant and what became scarce was curation, distribution, and self space.
5/ Similarly, in careers, what used to be (more) scarce were things like ideas, money, and exclusive relationships.
In the internet economy, what has become scarce are things like specific knowledge, rare & valuable skills, and great reputations.

I'm increasingly interested in the idea of "personal moats" in the context of careers.

Moats should be:
- Hard to learn and hard to do (but perhaps easier for you)
- Skills that are rare and valuable
- Legible
- Compounding over time
- Unique to your own talents & interests https://t.co/bB3k1YcH5b

- Proprietary networks
- Being something other than one of the best at any tournament style-game
- Many "awards"
- Twitter followers or general reach without "respect"
- Anything that depends on information asymmetry https://t.co/abjxesVIh9

The project "ended" on Feb 4th, 2004.
