The Holy Spirit Guide

Here’s the first installment in my “explaining Christianity” series. What is The Holy Spirit? It’s the part of the Christian triune god that’s within all saved Christians. So Christians, you better feel it because you’ve got a little piece of God riding around inside of you. Otherwise, it might be a sign that (*gasp*) your faith isn’t strong enough.

Coincidentally enough, I just finished watching “The Emperor’s New Clothes” with my wife.

ACTS. 2:36-42
Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ

Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?

Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.

And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.

Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.

And they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.

AUTHORITY, 3 by Dr. Harold Sala
All men are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of the Lord stands forever. 1 Peter 1:24-25

Voltaire, the French agnostic, said that Christianity would not survive him by a hundred years, yet a hundred years after his death the Geneva Bible Society purchased his old home and upon Voltaire’s own press, printed a complete edition of the Bible.

Voltaire was neither the first nor the last to attack the Bible, striving to deal it such a blow that it would be set aside once and for all. The eighth century BC prophet Jeremiah tells us how Jehoiakim, the king, didn’t happen to like what he heard which Jeremiah had written. The king took his penknife, cut up the parchment and threw it into the fire. But that was not the end of the message, for Jeremiah simply rewrote the book which has long since survived the king.

Upon occasion, kings and rulers have ordered the destruction of all Bibles. Diocletian, the Roman emperor, tried it in 303 AD, ordering all Bibles to be collected and destroyed, yet a decade after that, Diocletian was succeeded by Constantine, who declared Christianity to be the state religion and pagan temples were turned into churches. The paranoia which some have had over this book has to be a measure of its true stature and power century after century. It outlives its critics!

Someone put it poetically: Last eve I passed beside a blacksmith’s/ And heard the anvil ring the vespered chime, / Then looking in, I saw upon the floor/ Old hammers worn with beating years of time. / “How many anvils have you had?” said I, “To wear and batter all these hammers so.”/ “Just one,” said he; then, with a twinkling eye / “The anvil wears the hammers out, you know. / And so, thought I, the anvil of God’s word/ For ages skeptic blows have beat upon; / Yet though the noise of falling blows was heard, / The anvil is unharmed the hammers, gone.”

The first book to be printed by Johann Gutenberg and the first book to be taken to the moon by Astronaut Ed Mitchell was—yes—a Bible. No other book in all history has been so much in demand by so many and has so endured the test of time.

Why? There is but one reason: This book is no ordinary book. Given by God, it has an authority that rings loud and clear. No other book so lucidly tells me of my own sinful condition, but dashes the despair by telling me how salvation and forgiveness are possible through Jesus Christ. No wonder the Gospel is called Good News.

The indestructibility of the Bible is one of the witnesses to the authority of this book. Ultimately you accept this authority by faith and submit to it or else you push it aside and reject it, which is like refusing to recognize the periodic chart of the elements, or refusing to acknowledge the metallic pull of the North Pole, or the warmth of the sun.

But the argument for the authority of the Word doesn’t stop with the simple fact that it has outlived its critics. There are five powerful voices, which are all external testimonies to this authority: 1. The fulfillment of the prophecies of the Bible, documented and verified by secular history, such as the establishment of the modern state of Israel; 2. The spade of the archaeologist, which has only supported the historical statements of the Bible, such as the existence of the Hittites, the names of Biblical characters and secular rulers such as Nebuchadnezzar, Belshazzar, Abraham, and David; 3. Science also verifies the statements that the Bible makes; 4.The abundance of manuscript evidence supporting the integrity of the text itself; and 5. Changed lives, which can support the simple allegation that it works. Yes, the issue of authority is important, very important today!

PLEASE SEE THE REMAKE OF THIS VIDEO.
A video of God’s desire to sanctify us through the power of the Holy Spirit. Music is “Sanctify”, written and sung by the gifted Catholic singer/songwriter, Annie Karto. The footage of the lady praying is Annie. www.anniekarto.com

“This song came about as a prayerful plea, asking the Holy Spirit to ‘sanctify’ my life. We are the ‘work of His Hands’, His dwelling place. How awesome to think about! A man named Jim Page from Maine heard the song and made a beautiful video to accompany the song, posting it on YouTube and GodTube.”
– Annie Karto

“As obedient children, do not be conformed to the former lusts which were yours in your ignorance, but like the Holy One who called you, be holy yourselves also in all your behavior; because it is written, ‘You shall be holy, for I am holy’.” (1 Peter 1:14-16)

” …but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence;” (1 Peter 3:15)

WHEN LIFE IS NO LONGER SACRED by Dr. Harold Sala
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. Psalm 139:13-14

For centuries when doctors have finished medical school, they have taken the Hippocratic Oath. A paragraph in that covenant reads as follows: I will not give poison to anyone though asked to do so, nor will I suggest such a plan. Similarly I will not give a pessary to a woman to cause abortion. But in purity and holiness I will guard my life and my art.

Today, however, doctors may affirm that oath but their commitment doesnt go very deep. When I was a youngster the most common surgical procedure was having your tonsils removed; today it is terminating a pregnancy. In the United States, this procedure takes place 1.5 million times annually; however, the number of abortions in the US pales in light of the number of procedures done in China, India, and Russia where the average woman has between 9 and 14 abortions during her lifetime. Rarely does a woman who terminates a pregnancy understand the awesome process of fetal development as Gods finger touches humanity and brings life. In short, heres what happens.

At conception 500 million sperm compete with each other to produce an ovum—one cell, so tiny it can be seen only under magnification, but then division and multiplication begin. By the eighth division, genes attached to the 23 chromosomes coming from both parents kick in and begin the process which will eventually determine the color of a babys hair, the color of his eyes, the shape of his brain, and the frame of the person, whether he will be tall or short, stocky or thin.

By the eighteenth day—long before a woman even knows she is expecting—a tiny heart begins to pulsate, growing stronger every day. By the forty-second day, brain waves can be recorded, and in the process the hypothalamus gland in the brain kicks into operation producing progesterone or testosterone which make that baby male or female. Soon thereafter the thyroid and adrenal glands are working too.

By the end of the thirteenth week, or the first trimester, the babys fingers are developed, including a fingerprint that, with his DNA, will be his identifying mark for the rest of his or her life. And by the way, that baby knows what to do with that thumb, too—not just hitchhiking a ride the same direction mom is going. The baby sucks his thumb and moves it at will.

Nurses who watch ultrasound, which is something like a video movie of an unborn child, say that by the end of the thirteenth week, they can detect personality in those little people that the world wants to call a fetus, denying that a human being, created in the image of God, endowed with life, personality, and emotions is in the process of developing into a full blown member of the human race.

Long before they are born, babies recognize the voices of their mothers and are quieted when they sing and talk to them. When David pondered this, long before science had given us ultrasound, he said, For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! (Psalm 139:13-16).

Because life is sacred, terminating the life of an unborn child is never written on the page in Gods book which has your name on it. Of that, you can be certain.

Proverbs 3:5-7
Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.

Proverbs 2:1-5
My son, if thou wilt receive my words, and hide my commandments with thee;
So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding;
Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding;
If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures;
Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.

Isaiah 7:14
Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.

John 3:16-17
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

John 14:6
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

John 15:1-4
I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.
Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

John 20:29-30
Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:
