Rains on the JUST and UNJUST!!!
Praise THE MOST HIGH GOD for the RAIN!
God's WORD refers to WATER as a sybmol of SALVATION's cleansing POWER!
Acts 11:
(15) "As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came on them as he had come on us at the beginning.
(16) Then I remembered what the Lord had said: 'John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'
(17) So if God gave them the same gift as he gave us, who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I to think that I could oppose God?"
Just THINK, if God did not allow the RAIN to fall on ALL FLESH, then
HIS PROMISE of Holy Spirit WOULD NOT have ANY POWER!!
Believing God provided the RAIN for cleansing the earth and replenishing
our supply of LIFE's water, we KNOW HIS Love for ALL MEN it TRUTH!
If the RAIN and Holy Spirit FELL ONLY on THOSE in the 1st Century church
then Today's Believers in Christ have NO HOPE much like the LOST in today's
time!
God NEVER Promised ANYTHING that HE was NOT WILLING to FULFILL!!!
Mark 1: (8) I baptize you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."
Jesus OBEYED HIS Father in the ritual of baptism, therefore providing a picture of the REJUVENATION that takes place when GOD bathes HIS Believers with Holy Spirit!!!
This is NOT a MYSTERY! It was told by GOD. It was FULFILLED by GOD.
It will BE as GOD said. Father, Son and Holy Spirit!!!
1 John 5:
(7) For there are three that testify:
(8)the Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement.
(9) We accept man's testimony, but God's testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son.
To ALL MEN, it is NOT about RITUALS---IT's about JESUS!!!
Give PRAISE to the SON of GOD! Sing Hosanna! to HIS MIGHTY NAME!! Lord Jesus, COME QUICKLY!!!
