Boafo, you are wrong to compare these two great men of God. God spoke to Moses with direct speech making him also one of God's greatest messengers but he did pray for the destruction of Pharaoh and the face of his wealth and his chiefs. Forget an intellectual, I think you are yet to be called a student. So let me teach you this, there is something called CONTEXT. Your problem, Boafo is that you are reading from a bible which was first commissioned 300 years after the death of the one it talks about; Jesus who was known as Yeheshua in the original books. Again this book of yours has seen more than 20 editions and revisions....can this be callecd the word of God. Go to Argentina and I can assure you they may not be reading from the same bible as you. Jews to date are waiting for the Messiah to come and restore them to their glory and build rebuild the TEMPLE. Please spare us your ignorance. Qouting your source of reference is basic academic work, sybthesising the content, contextualising it and deducing a conclusion will be be closer to some level wisdom. Be honest in your heart Boafo and God will guide you to the TRUTH.

aj-usa, don't you think that is what makes the qur'an genuine word of God. The fact that Mohammed did not write it himself...that notwithstanding, some Christians and Jews claim the quran was the result of plagiarism. Your Statement is right, the quran was put together after the death of Mohammed but not 200 to 300 yrs ago as you said. I am being very diplomatic with you because there is a semblance of wisdom in you but you are speaking from your heart and not your head. 200 to 300 is a very big gap of 100yrs so which one are you referring to before I educate you? Again, we have all heard that claim that the Iranians have a different Quran but it is not true. They claim to have had it from Ali (one of the companions of the prophet) but Ali stated categorically that he had nothing different from the other companions. No one has seen any different Quran amongst them. Think; it is possible to commit the entire quran of 114 Chapters to memory, that is how it has been protected the last 1434 yrs.

Why am I not surprise you are down playing the bible? Because the bible exposes the lies of the quran. The book that existed before the Christian bible(new testament) is the Jewish Tanakh(old testament) Christians have not condemned this book as corrupt but the muslims have.The Tanakh and the Christian bible have agreed on so many things which the quran contradicts, hence the only way out for the muslims is the excuse that these two holy books are corrupt. Both Jews and Christians agree that salvation is of the Jews and the covenant of God is through the son of Abraham Isaac and not Ishmael even though God promised to bless him too(but not with prophecy). Which means mohammed who claims to be a descendant of Ishmael is not qualified to be a prophet as God does not break his promise.Christians though we are not Jews are grafted into Israel(the mother tree) through Jesus hence our roots and spiritual source of sustenance is from Judaism, that's why we can never call the holy book of the Jews corrupt as muslims have the ordacity and impudence to blaspheme these holy books. And oh lets I forget Mary the mother of Jesus is not a sister to Moses as the "perfect quran" states, infact Moses died more than six hundred years before Mary the mother of Jesus existed, not to talk of the fact that Moses was from the tribe of Levi whilst Mary the mother of Jesus was from the tribe of Judah.

aj-usa, the powercuts got the better of me. I consider myself a muslim. Haven travelled around the world a with a bit of appreciation for history I want to believe that you are aware that, the origins of these sects was fundamentally political more than differences in religous teachings/ practices.
Again it will be fallacious to conclude that generally one might think that the religion he is born to is best without any exceptions. Some of us have been in the boarding school for several yrs but that gave us more conviction in the beliefs we held. Aj-usa, I really appreciate your pan-africanism, but God sent Mohammed (pbuh) as a mercy to mankind. Otherwise, I think the historians will tell you that Moses was black. I have also as a matter of fact travelled around so I am not sure what you mean by the last comment.

First and foremost, let it be very clear in the minds of all the inhabitants of the earth, coast lands, islands etc. that the promises of God for humanity is in the Bible.

Now the invisible qualities of God are clearly seen in the things that he has made, therefore man has no excuse.

It has to be understood that God is a COVENANT God. Adam broke his covenant relationship with God that brought about death to humanity.

God made a covenant with Abraham and his posterity through Isaac and the Jacob(Israel). The test of Faith of the readiness and obedience to offer Isaac as a sacrifice qualified him to be accorded with the promise that by means of him)(genealogy) the whole world would be blessed. This was a promise that God affirmed again from heaven. If Abraham was willing to sacrifice Isaac(long after Ishmael and the mother, Hagar, had left the family) then HE God was going offer his Son, Jesus Christ to behalf of mankind, that Son was to come at a time that God himself had purposed.

Prior to the coming of Christ, the Jews were entrusted with the ORACLES(the sacred commitments) of God
The Jews were entrusted with the responsibilities of coming to the knowledge of the true God and live according to his precepts. Israel was made a nation of priests and prophets, and they contributed to the inspired writings of the Old Testament(OT). Particularly, they all wrote about the coming Messiah Jesus Christ (Yeheshua, like you rightly pointed out).

The prophecies concerning the coming of Messiah which were all fulfilled by Christ are just superfluous.

Jesus, himself, acknowledged the writings of the Prophets, and quoted them often. Jesus Christ told the woman of Samaria, that Salvation is of the Jew.Yes, the saving justice of God has come through the instrumentality of the Jewish nation and Jesus Christ, in particular.

It the responsibility of everyone to come to knowledge of the scriptures that God has given us life and that life is in his SON. God himself declared Jesus Christ as his SON, and that Christ should be honored as such. Whoever does not honour the SON does not honour the Father who sent Christ.

Now the New Testament has hundreds of references and direct quotations from the OT, pointing or proving that all the things that the Jewish prophets wrote about concerning his SON has indeed come to pass.

The inspired NT writings began a few tens of years after the death and resurrection of Christ, and were all completed before 100 AD.

The WORD of God endures for ever. Heaven and Earth shall pass away but my WORD shall never pass away, says the Lord.

We are grateful to the Lord for the Scriptures translated into different languages. What we have various versions. Let your Argentine friend read his or her Bible and compare it to yours, you will realize that they basically are the same in every respect.

Regarding the Jews who are waiting for the coming of the Messiah, this does not surprise us as Christians because of the knowledge in the Scriptures.

The coming of Christ about 2000 years ago was something that the Jews were all waiting for. They thought the Messiah was to going to free them from the Roman domination. The plan and purpose of God was to free mankind from the bondage of sin.

Those who acknowledged who he was and is, were blessed. “I know that the Messiah cometh and when he comes he will tell us ALL thingss”.

Jesus says unto her: “He that speaketh unto you I am hes”.

The legacy of Jewish prophets(Daniel etc) in the Eastern part of the world was what provoked their embarking o journey to Jerusalem to see the King, for they knew that a star would rise out of Jacob, according to the OT prophecy in the book of Numbers. The Prophet Daniel is one of the Prophets accredited with the knowledge of the exact timing of the coming of the Messiah. Daniel found favor in the eyes of King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon(Iraq), and King Darius(the great)of Medo Percia(Iran). These kings who were ignorant and incolved in idol worshiping, eventually, acknowledged that the True God was ans is the God of Daniel.

King Sennacherib of the Assyrian Empire died in shame in his shrine after profaning against the God of Israel during the time of the Prophet Isaiah.

The tomb of the Prophet Jonah is in Mosul(in Iraq) formerly called Ashur
which was under the Assyrian Empire. Assyrian Empire was overtaken by the Babylonian Empire.

Ladies and gentlemen, there is a enemy, Satan. The ways of this enemy is very cunning. Satan presents things which seemeth to be good. The only Litmus test the WORD of God which Christ himself has put his stamp of authenticity.

The wisest thing to do is to humbly look for a living Church where the preaching of the WORD of God would challenge you unto repentance. Get baptised by immersion and have a clean and clear conscience in Worshiping the true God.

It is not all kins of religious activity that please God. Jesus says broad is the way that leads to destruction. narrow is the way that leads to Life, and few will find it.

Cornelius was a generous and prayerful man. An angel came to him to send servants to Joppa to invite Peter. In the new dispensation Cornelius who believed in the God of Israel needed to know that Jesus had come so that the believers in the God of Israel would know God better. Peter came and preached to him and his household and they all received Christ as their Lord.

Satan deceives the entire inhabited earth, that is why it is important to heed to what Christ has commanded. You are to know what the death and resurrection means to you, for Christ is the lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. It is only his blood that washes you so that the Father will acknowledge that you are his child. Anything outside this mandate is following shadows, no matter how BBC, CNN Al jazeera will publicize it.

There is nothing like Abrahamic FaithS. There is only one Faith and one Baptism, for Abraham himself Propesied about Christ. In other words, there is a continuity of Truth right from the OT to the NT.

In the latter days the Jews would come to believe that one who was pierced.Infact, we have waht we call the Messianic Jews. They are Jews who are coming to the knowledge of God through Christ. Jesus is the one who reveals the Father.

Thanks Campus ministry, it is frightening to know know that the muslims refuse to acknowledge the testimony of God that Jesus is his son
Matt 3:17 And a voice from heaven said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased" this same testimony was also confessed by Peter "You the Christ the son of the Living God"
And this amazing connection of testimony was futher reinforced by John's gospel that the antiChrist is the one who denies the father and the son. See how these are closely related and how the muslims openly go against God's own testimony of Jesus being his Son.Even though there are different Christian Churches, we still have this common confession that still binds us together, and I confess toay that Jesus is indeed the son of God(YAHWEH) Amen!

Ladies and gentlemen, let know one be deceived into thinking that everything religious is pleasing to the true God.

Even during the time of transfiguration, God himself spoke from heaven concerning Christ, saying

"This is my beloved Son, listen to him"

God has already given his testimony concerning his Son, Jesus Christ.

Paul gave a prophetic warning against misguided doctrines. One cannot sit down unconcerned about what we have received from above.

But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed(Galatians 1:8)

Your testimony about Jesus Christ(of the Bible) counts so much.

We have a lot elderly relatives in our society who have not come to the knowledge of the truth, because of the beliefs they have been brought up in. It is our responsible to speak to their semi circular canals to believe in the Christ of the Bible and get baptized in his name.

There many also who continue to argue themselves out of the Kingdom of God.

Let people not be deceived that on that day, they would be pitied. Angels are keeping records of our deeds, and they are to present their reports without compromise.

In fact an angel in heaven has sounded a warning in mid heavens, saying "Fear the TRUE GOD and worship him" (REV).

Galatians 2:20 - "I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. (NKJV)

Hebrews 4:14 - Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. (NKJV)

Hebrews 6:6 if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame. (NKJV)

Hebrews 7:3 without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God, remains a priest continually. (NKJV)

1 John 5:13 I have written these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life. (ISV)

1 John 5:20 We know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we know the true God. We live in union with the true God--in union with his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and this is eternal life. (TEV)

Revelation 2:18 "And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write, `These things says the Son of God, who has eyes like a flame of fire, and His feet like fine brass: (NKJV)

Matthew 26:63 But Jesus remained silent. Then the high priest said to him, "I demand in the name of the living God that you tell us whether you are the Messiah, the Son of God." (NLT)

I will forgive you for quoting from different versions of the bible because, as I indicated, I shall duly respond to that issue when we get there.

That notwithstanding, do you not find it interesting that Paul has become more important than the 2 Apostles/ diciples who walked with Jesus? Some of them having their books rejected when the first bible was compiled?

As a matter of pure intellectual curiosity what is Paul's other name? I anot referring to Saul or Saul of Taurus. I mean his complete name. Having authored 13 of the 27 books of the NT.

Please be brief as I am aware of most of the stuff you are posting so that we can have a meaningful dialogue.

God is a God of all nations. My use of the expression: The God of Israel heightens the fact that the true God did covenant with a nation, a people, according to the promise of God to Abraham, that by means of him (Abraham) the whole world would be blessed.

If you claim to believe the OT and the Gospels then you should not find any problem with this portion of Truth.

The evidences I gave in my previous response are superfluous. The purpose of my sharing these things for many to come to the Salvation knowledge of God.

Yes, I was going to Church, but never knew Christ. Our traditional religions (African) are nothing, but idolatry. They all have the form of godliness but deny the power thereof.

Buddha himself was born (around 560 BC) when more than 95%(in terms of volume) of the OT had been written: except for the book of Malachi and one or two other minor Prophetic writings, considering the fact that there was a time frame of about 400 years that elapsed before the coming of Christ.

So before Buddhism began, God had already covenanted with a nation (Israel) who were the custodians of the ORACLES of God. There is no partiality with God (Acts 10:34), and in every nation whoever lives righteously is pleasing to him. Righteousness is having a right standing with God. And our righteousness is in Christ. This is the mandate for every mankind.

The spirit in man thirst for his creator, and this has provoked many to search for God whose invisible qualities are clearly seen in the things that he has made.

The Father of Abhraham was in Idolatry(Idol worshiper) and called called him out of his household and commanded him to be blameless before him(God).

The Prophet Ezekiel(and other Prophets) warned the Israelite to do away with all kinds of religious believes and practices against which Abraham was called from the household
of his father.

Religions may come under the umbrelalla of whatever it may be broadly called today. However, if it does not acknowledge the Son of God, what he came to do for humanity(atonement), the power of his resurrection, and the executive power of the Holy Spirit, young man, forget it.

The Scriptures asks: Who is the child of God? The answer is, He who believes that Jesus is the son of God.

Throughout the Bible, we learn of his Power, Justice, Righteousness, Wisdom and Knowledge, Love, Mercy etc in his dealing with humanity.

He does not take delight in punishing the disobedient. Jonah was sent to Nineveh (Assyrian Empire) as a warning to them, and the nation was spared, because they repented.

One of the tricks of Satan is to present something which seemeth good. The Bible has made us know that Satan ir real and masquerades as an angel of light.

Religions have certain things in common, rituals(animal), evoking names, practices which even bear resemblance to some things in the Old Testament. Satan always try to imitate or counterfeit God. That is why the Children of Israel were warned against evoking the name of gods. God instructed them, regarding sacrifices as to how it ought to be offered to distinguish them from those of the other nations. (EX 23:13 , 1st Chronicles 16:26, 1st Corinth 10:20)

All the sacrifices and rituals were a shadow of what was to come, that is the reality. And the reality is Christ.

Hence, Jesus sacrifice cancels even the Jewish sacrifices of old. If it is continued, it is not acknowledged by God (records proves this fact)

The purpose of Satan is to kill, steal and destroy(John 10:10).
However, the good news is Jesus has come to give us Life.

Jesus says, whoever believes in me, even though he dies will live again. Where else can you be assured of this promise?

Jesus came to undo what the enemy did against humanity.

Musah, I encourage you, once again that your inheritance is in Christ for the taking. The promise of God are in Christ as written. Jesus says whoever believes. It is not just vain believe, but rather your believe will provoke you to study come to the knowledge of what God has given to you through his Son. No body else died for you, except Christ the Son of God.

If you want to take time to sincerely compare, please check the internet because it is so resourceful, and will be glad to hear from you from time to time.

It is easy for someone to say that he believes in the OT, Gospels etc. However, the person should be able to give a personal testimony of when he received Christ, and also he preparation towards Baptism.

But as for you, the Lord your God has not permitted you to do so. 15 The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your fellow Israelites. You must listen to him. 16 For this is what you asked of the Lord your God at Horeb on the day of the assembly when you said, “Let us not hear the voice of the Lord our God nor see this great fire anymore, or we will die.”

17 The Lord said to me: “What they say is good. 18 I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their fellow Israelites, and I will put my words in his mouth. He will tell them everything I command him.

2 And he said, The Lord came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them.

3 Yea, he loved the people; all his saints are in thy hand: and they sat down at thy feet; every one shall receive of thy words.

4 Moses commanded us a law, even the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob.

5 And he was king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people and the tribes of Israel were gathered together.

6 Let Reuben live, and not die; and let not his men be few". The context talks of THE LORD is Mohammed the Lord? Secondly the context talks of Moses blessing Israel, thirdly since when did Ten thousands equal Ten thousand(note s in the thousand)

Read through this passage in the NT (Acts 3:22)where the apostle Peter quoted Deut 18: 14-18 from the Old Testament about the Special Prophet who was foretold by Moses, and all the subsequent Jewish prophets wrote about him.

I suggest you follow the line of presentation from Acts 3:11

--------------------------------------
Peter speaks to the lookers
--------------------------------------

11 While the man held on to Peter and John, all the people were astonished and came running to them in the place called Solomon’s Colonnade. 12 When Peter saw this, he said to them: “Fellow Israelites, why does this surprise you? Why do you stare at us as if by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk? 13 The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his servant Jesus. You handed him over to be killed, and you disowned him before Pilate, though he had decided to let him go. 14 You disowned the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you. 15 You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead. We are witnesses of this. 16 By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know was made strong. It is Jesus’ name and the faith that comes through him that has completely healed him, as you can all see.

17 “Now, fellow Israelites, I know that you acted in ignorance, as did your leaders. 18 But this is how God fulfilled what he had foretold through all the prophets, saying that his Messiah would suffer. 19 Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord, 20 and that he may send the Messiah, who has been appointed for you—even Jesus. 21 Heaven must receive him until the time comes for God to restore everything, as he promised long ago through his holy prophets. 22 For Moses said, ‘The Lord your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your own people; you must listen to everything he tells you. 23 Anyone who does not listen to him will be completely cut off from their people.’[a]

24 “Indeed, beginning with Samuel, all the prophets who have spoken have foretold these days. 25 And you are heirs of the prophets and of the covenant God made with your fathers. He said to Abraham, ‘Through your offspring all peoples on earth will be blessed.’[b] 26 When God raised up his servant, he sent him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways.”
--------------------------------------

You see the clear proof that the context of the OT refers to that special Prophet who was to come among their brethren, an Israelite is the Christ.

Since the time of Moses, each of the Prophets that had been raised in Israel gave a portion of Truth concerning the identity of the prophet, and Peter was telling them that that prophecy did fulfill in their days (days of Peter).

If historians have a problem then they have to do their homework well.

A few months ago I presented a fact about the actual mountain Sinai which hitherto had been thought to be site near the Sinai Peninsula as we know about it today. Helene, the mother of Constantine was mistaken about that.

The actual mountain Sinai is in Arabia, north west of Arabia. All the clues are in the Bible. It is on top of the Medianite (Sinai) mountains where God appeared to the Israelites in a flame of Fire. The top of the mountains still stands darkened till today.

That is why when you want to look for Truth you have to ask the Holy Spirit to guide you into the Truth.

"And it came to pass in the second year, in the second month, on the twentieth day of the month, that the cloud was taken up from over the tabernacle of the testimony.
And the children of Israel set forward by their stages out of the wilderness of Sinai; and the cloud(glory of God) abode in the wilderness of Paran.
And they took their first journey, according to the commandment of the LORD by the hand of Moses.See how this relates to what Moses was talking about in the book of Deuteronomy I posted earlier.Numbers 10:11-13

"And when it rested, he said: 'Return, O LORD, unto the ten thousands of the families of Israel" Numbers 10:36

Note here the ten thousands is of israel not Arab.The whole of this chapter throws light about the ten thousands of saints and the glory of God at mount paran

Good you said different translations and not different bibles as there is only one bible which is originally in greek and Hebrew, if you live in England you can get a copy of the original bible in the British Library in Euston London. The hand written manuscpripts are still well preserved and available till this day.The bible is a compilation of books written by the apostles and the Jewish book called the tanakh.You can the translation of the orinal greek version as well as the Jewish Tanakh on line.Not forgetting your question on the different translations, you woud realise there are different english translations as compared to other languages( I speak french,spanish, italian and portuguese too).The anglosaxon world is the most controversial, most anglophones don't like learning other languages hence the difficulty in getting the most accurate translation from the original greek and hebrew version.The same happens to the translation of the quran from the original arabic to english, the first quran I read in english was translated by Ahmadi Maulana Muhammad Ali in 1917 but the sunnis despute that it was translated to suit the ahmadiyan view, so now I go for a more neutral source of translation by professor Ahmed Ali's translation amongst so many other translations of the quran. This shows the different bible translations just as the different quranic translations are a result of different interpretations of the original texts especially common in the anglophone world.The french and spanish have very few bible translations. I read the original greek and hebrew translation online and I possess the KJV bible hard copy. This is how I do it; I read the KJV bible and compare to the online original greek and Jewish translation then the holy spirit in me confirms it. I'm still trying to learn hebrew and greek though. I suppose you read your quran in arabic that's why don't know there are different translations of the quran in english. Now my question to you too, how do those moslims who don't understand arabic language explain the differences in the english translations to the reliability of the quran they read? I know of at least more than 10 different english versions of the quran. I'm just using the same measure you used to question the reliability of the bible on you. WORD!

Take time and go through the postings.

Let me also point out that Paul was a vessel that God used.

The Lord visited him at his own time.

Our Lord and savior also made it known to him, how he(Paul)was to suffer for the name of Christ.

Paul indeed suffered. He drew strength from the Lord, and also from the fact that he himself acted in opposition to Christians, and that his persecutors were acting in ignorance, for which he could easily forgive them.

In his deference, he took opportunity of the occasion to witness to many about Christ, proving from the writings of Moses, through those of the Prophets and the book of Psalms.

The fact that he was not part of the 12 does not mean that he could not be used of the Lord, for Christ is alive.

Similarly, you can also be used by the Lord, if you avail yourself to him. What a privilege!

Paul was very much educated in the OT. All he needed was for his eyes to be opened, spiritually, to behold the magnificent things of God.

He was used mightily by the Lord to establish Churches in various parts of Asia Minor, and we all blessing to his legacy in the name of Jesus Christ.

"THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD"

The Promise Of The Holy Spirit

INTRODUCTION

The Holy Spirit is involved
in
a. Creation
b. Revelation
c. Confirmation
d. Regeneration
e. Sanctification

2. It is evident that the Holy Spirit has been at work throughout...
a. The history of mankind
b. The redemption of mankind

3. Of special interest is the working of the Holy Spirit in the life of
a Christian...
a. An area of study in which many have questions
b. An area in which there is great diversity of views

[A good place to begin might be the promise of the Holy Spirit. Long
before Jesus came, God began making promises about the Spirit ...]

I. THE PROMISE OF THE SPIRIT IN THE OLD TESTAMENT

A. THE PROPHECY OF JOEL...
1. Recorded in Joel 2:28-32 (ca. 800 B.C.)
2. The elements of this prophecy included:
a. The Spirit being poured out on all flesh - Joel 2:28
b. Sons and daughters of Israel prophesying , and Israel's
young and old men seeing visions and dreaming dreams (note
"your") - Joel 2:28
c. God's Spirit being poured out upon His menservants and
maidservants (including Gentiles?) and their prophesying
- Joel 2:29
3. This prophecy began to be fulfilled on the Day of Pentecost
after the Ascension of Christ
a. When the Holy Spirit came upon the apostles in Jerusalem
- Ac 2:1-4
b. Who enabled them to speak in foreign languages - Ac 2:4-13
c. Note that Peter ties the events of that day with Joel's
prophecy - Ac 2:15-21
-- It will be necessary to consider other passages to determine
the full extent of the nature of this outpouring of the Spirit
and its ramifications for today

B. THE PROPHECIES OF ISAIAH...
1. One recorded in Isa 44:3-5 (ca. 750 B.C.)
2. Elements of this prophecy include:
a. God pouring His Spirit upon Israel's descendants - Isa 44:3
b. Connecting the promise of the Spirit with the figure of
water given to him who is thirsty - cf. Jn 7:37-39
3. Another prophecy that might relate to the promise of the Spirit
- Isa 32:15-17
a. Found in a section that appears to have Messianic
implications - cf. Isa 32:1
b. The result of this pouring of the Spirit: justice,
righteousness, and peace - cf. Ro 14:17

C. THE PROPHECIES OF EZEKIEL...
1. One recorded in Ezek 36:26-27
2. Elements of this prophecy:
a. God promises to put His Spirit "within you" (an indwelling)
b. It will cause (enable) one to walk in His statutes and keep
His judgments - cf. Ro 8:11-13; Ep 3:16
3. Another prophecy that might relate to the promise of the Spirit
- Ezek 39:29
a. A prophecy that looks beyond the captivity and restoration
of Israel
b. One that might not have been fulfilled until the coming of
the Messiah

D. THE PROPHECY OF ZECHARIAH...
1. Recorded in Zech 12:10
2. Elements of this prophecy:
a. The Spirit of grace and supplication to be poured out on the
inhabitants of Jerusalem
b. Prompting people to look upon Jesus whom they have pierced,
and mourn because of Him - cf. Ac 2:32-37

[Whether the prophecies of Ezekiel and Zechariah have reference to a
promise that would be fulfilled in the age of the Messiah may be
questionable, but certainly the prophecy of Joel and Isaiah demonstrate
that God promised an "outpouring" of the Spirit in a special way. We
now consider...]

II. THE PROMISE OF THE SPIRIT IN THE NEW TESTAMENT

A. THE PREACHING OF JOHN THE BAPTIST...
1. He spoke of One coming who would "baptize you with the Holy
Spirit" - Mt 3:11; Mk 1:7-8; Lk 3:16; Jn 1:33
2. While he himself administered a baptism in water, there was One
coming who would be the administrator of a baptism with the
Holy Spirit
3. The promise was made to large crowds; only in its fulfillment
can we determine its full extent
a. We know that it is somehow tied to the events of Pentecost
in Ac 2:1-4
b. Because of Jesus' comments in Ac 1:4-5

B. THE TEACHING OF JESUS CHRIST...
1. The Spirit would be given to those who ask the Heavenly Father
- Lk 11:13
2. The Spirit would be given as "living water" to all those who
thirst and come to Him in faith, and drink - Jn 7:37-39
a. Might this "living water" be "the gift of God" Jesus alluded
to earlier? - cf. Jn 4:10-14
b. Note again the comparison of the Spirit to water in Isaiah's
prophecy - Isa 44:3
3. To His apostles, Jesus promised the "Spirit of truth" who
would...
a. Be a Helper, and abide with them - Jn 14:16-17
b. Bring to their remembrance all things Jesus taught them - Jn
14:26
c. Bear witness of Christ, together with the apostles - Jn 15:
26-27
d. Convict the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment - Jn
16:7-11
e. Guide the apostles unto all the truth, including things to
come - Jn 16:12-13
f. Glorify Jesus, by taking of what is His and declaring it to
them - Jn 16:14
4. Jesus told His apostles to wait in Jerusalem until they
received the "Promise of the Father" - Lk 24:49; Ac 1:4-5
a. Which He clearly connects to the baptism of the Spirit
spoken of by John
b. In which they (the apostles) would receive power, and be
eyewitnesses - Ac 1:8

C. THE PREACHING OF PETER...
1. On Pentecost, Peter ties the outpouring of the Spirit to the
prophecy of Joel - Ac 2:14-16
2. Then, in the course of his sermon, Peter...
a. Speaks of the outpouring of the Spirit as a promise Jesus
received from the Father - Ac 2:33; cf. Ac 1:4-5
b. Offers the gift of the Spirit to all who repent and are
baptized - Ac 2:38
c. Says the promise is to them and others - Ac 2:39
1) What promise does Peter have in mind?
2) What promise would have immediately come to mind to his
hearers?
3) Would it not have been the promise he just alluded to?
a) The promise received by Christ, and now poured out by
Christ - Ac 2:33
b) I.e., the Spirit which Jesus Himself promised to
believers - cf. Jn 7:37-39
c) "That we are right in referring the word promise, in
this sentence, to the promise of the Holy Spirit just
made by Peter, is evident from the fact that this is
the only promise made in the immediate context."
- J. W. McGarvey
d) "For the promise... - Of pardon, and the gift of the
Spirit." - B. W. Johnson
e) "Acts 2:39 shows that the gift of the Holy Spirit is
to all, Jews and Gentiles, who accept that call of
God." - David Lipscomb

CONCLUSION

1. In this study we have seen the following...
a. Old Testament prophets promised a special dispensation of the
Spirit to come
1) One that would include the manifestation of special gifts
2) One that would enable the people of God to keep His will
b. John and Jesus promised a baptism of the Spirit, administered by
Jesus
c. Peter in his first gospel sermon...
1) Proclaims this promise to be fulfilled with the outpouring of
the Spirit - Ac 2:16,33
2) Appears to offer the Spirit as a gift to all who obey the
gospel - Ac 2:38-39

So then, when you (Christiendom) say that Jesus is the 'Son of God', is that synonymous to 'Prophet of God'? if he the prophet being referred to in Deutronomy, then would you say the concept of Son of God is not unique to only Jesus Christ the Messiah?

Christianity would never cease to exist because it is founded on Christ, the Son of God. This GOOD NEWS of the KINGDOM would be preached to all the inhabited Earth and the end will come.

The True God himself gave a testimony about his Son during the Baptism of Jesus to fulfill all righteousness.

Jesus said, for God so loved the world that he gave his on begotten Son so that whosoever believes in him shall that not perish but have Eternal Life.

During the transfiguration, God spoke saying this is my Son listen to him.

John the Baptist said of Christ. The Father loves the Son and has given his spirit without measure.

Jesus himself said, men ought to honor the Son even as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him(Son).

Jesus says whatever you do, do it in the name of the Son, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

Peter said unto Jesus, you are the Christ, the Son of the living of God. Jesus said unto him blessed are you bar Jonah, for flesh and blood did not reveal it unto you but my Father who is in heaven.

Every true Prophet of God has to know that Jesus is the Son of God. Sunday school children even know this.

One can choose to believe it or not. Our Faith is not empty belief, because we are challenged to be sure of all things, and the Lord prayed that we may know the Truth, for the Truth will set us free from deception.

Think of the numerous people who have died without acknowledging the Son of God! This is the time to make amends.

Jesus indeed says, no one can come to him except the Father draws that person to him(Christ).

Yes, the things of God are free, but they are not cheap. The one who created us knows those who are serious, and who acknowledge that they need a Saviour. The Life that God has promised is in his Son, and in know where else. Everyone has to cleaned and cleansed, and the one that does the cleaning and cleansing is Christ.The blood of Jesus cleanses us. It is a promise, but you have to appropriate it in your Life.

We are all creatures of God, but we are all not the children of God. A child of God id the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God, in holiness, righteousness and obedience to the Lord.

The Truthfulness of the Gospel is beyond debate 2nd Corinth 10:4,5.

Paul gave a prophetic warning that if anyone comes to you to present a Jesus different from what has been presented to you, even if an angel, let him be accursed! And the people around 600-700 AD should have been knowledgeable and equipped enough to debunk anything that denies who Christ really is.

Nevertheless, it is not too late. You can make this day count by hearing his voice.

I pray that you come to a point when you say I believe, instead of saying we believe, because on that day it is you who has to answer to the True God.
