right right

and I don't teach you have to be 18 and kneeling by your bedside and asking God to fill you

I was saved at 5, water baptized at 13 and infilled at 18

sounds good :giggle:

Where do you find the teaching of infilling that says the Holy Spirit gives a unknown remnant of His Holy Spirit at this time like 5 and increases it for another unknow remnant and finally at another age its finally full? I would ask...Does it need topping off? or when a person first believes, hearing the voice of scripture they have been by grace delivered from the wage of eternal damnation as death to eternal spirit life.

1 John 3:14 We know that we "have passed" from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death.

You hear many terms, like "slain in the spirit", or filling up the spirit, holy laughter in the spirit.And especially in the charismatic Christians sects. I would think again in a hope of unity we let the interpretation of God do its work looking at the way the Spirit uses filled with the Spirit, the filling of the Spirit called in the indwelling of the Spirit and not spirits . Which spirit I would ask is given fully at our new birth as a spirit that will never die?

For your edification I’ll list the definition of apostle not referring to the early church. A vigorous and pioneering advocate or supporter of a particular policy, idea, or cause.

you are wrong again the context of "A" apostle are those who were ones who have seen the Risen Lord and sent by HIM. "a" apostles in the five-fold ministries means sent out one's task-oriented also known as the equipping gifts to the church found in 1cor 12:28 and Eph 4:11.

1 Cor 12-14 state gifts are unique. And 14 specifically is an admonition of the Corinthians abuse of the gift of tongues. It’s not a pat on the back and encouragement to keep doing it.

correction is not doing away with. 1cor 14:38-39
 
Mar 16:19　 So the Lord Jesus, after talking with his disciples, was taken up to heaven and sat down at the right hand of God.

Still there...


Mar 16:20　 Then his disciples went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord kept working with them and confirming the message by the signs that accompanied it.

And He still is confirming the Word preached by signs that accompany.

I thought the criteria was the fruit of the Spirit and that is why I was thinking actions. So, I think someone who is walking close to Jesus is growing in love for others, is seeking to please him and is in general following where he leads. Micah 6:8 says " He has shown you O man what is good. And what does the Lord require of you that you do justly, love mercy and walk humbly with your God.?" What are your thoughts? What do you believe is the criteria according to Scripture?

ok

I get what you are saying

I certainly agree with the bolded part above of your post, but we are talking, or maybe just me, past each other

let me try again

I am trying to convey that speaking in tongues does not make you better than others but behavior is not a judge either

we need both. we need to be filled with the Holy Spirit and follow Christ. it is a matter of sanctification and not instant in either case

for sure there are Christians who are stunted in growth for whatever reason and those who are wrong in how they use speaking in tongues

so again, I say that the Bible is the clear indicator and that is how we should model ourselves

better?

If anyone wants to expose some fake "interpreters" go and speak a foreign language like hebrew or whatever language the others dont speak, quote a psalm in that language, and have some faker "interpret" it completely wrong.

Then tell them, hey did you know that was Psalm 20 in Y language? GOTCHA.

that would be a good one but an interpretation is not a translation

The book of Acts isn’t a play book of every believer. It recorded the acts of the Apostles and the early church. I am an apostle and sealed by the Holy Spirit. I don’t need to speak on tongues to prove it.

I never claimed to be an Apostle as I’ve never seen the risen Christ and Paul was the last. but apostle directly translated is messenger.

You are the one that claimed it couldn’t be kundalini because the woman didn’t know what kundalini was.

if you don't know the context of your own video you posted that is your fault guy. You are the one who provided it not me. I just pointed out that I am not one to look at a video and not ask for some truths. can an evil spirit overrule the Holy Spirit? NO!

Does one who seeks the Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit get an evil spirit? NO! Can they be in error YES! unlearned? Yes! that is why I don't go to cultic sites to get my theology I suggest you don't either.

You do need to prove your apostleship SOMEHOW:

2Cor 12:12 Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.

“"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?' And then will I declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.'”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:21-23‬ ‭ESV‬‬
