The Gospel message that Jesus said would begin in Jerusalem was first preached to the Jews by Peter on the Day of Pentecost and then to the Gentiles and Samaritans afterward. Paul later carried the same message as seen in his statements and actions recorded in his Epistles sent to those who had already received their spiritual rebirth. Always to the Jew first and then to the Gentiles. Many churches today do not even preach the gospel message as stated by those original born again men of God. They carried the message of Jesus' death, burial and resurrection, and stated what was required of EVERYONE in order to receive one's spiritual rebirth. (Luke 24:47, Acts 2:38-42, 8, 10, 19:1-6)

I agree, and I think the organized church today should work harder to agree with all Christ teaches. There should be one organized church not many. It is up to us to settle all the wars that are waged on this site into one church.
As an example, if we followed The Way, the argument over the Sabbath would be setteled by by agreeing there is a Sabbath, and some considered meeting to worship on Sunday and some to worship on Saturday, but each would let the other decide in their own heart.

I myself am not charismatic. I think that God often speaks in more quiet ways. I’m sure he can still speak in audible. I believe that when we are led by the Spirit, we follow Jesus example and this will be in line with the fruit of the Spirit. Such as if someone is unkind to you, you demonstrate kindness and patience back instead of having your own two cents. Following the Spirit’s leading will be opposite of what the sin nature wants.
Galatians 5:16-18 ( KJV) says:
“ This I say then, walk by the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lustesh against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. “
I do find the part “ if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law” interesting and would like more input on that verse.

My response to Blik was regarding how much the biblical doctrine has been distorted by the traditions of men. People no longer think it necessary to obey what God established as the means of receiving the spiritual rebirth let alone comply with other aspects in the word. The power displayed by the apostles in Acts 4:33, was only possible because they had received the indwelling of the Holy Ghost provided by Jesus as part of the spiritual rebirth process. (John 3:3-5, Acts 2:38-42)

Almost daily he teaches me many biblical principles. He warns me when I'm out of line. He prepares me for circumstances that I face. He gives me discernment in situations.
He's calms my anxieties. He's told me to be quiet. He's pointed out my faults.
He's taught me to rest in many storms.
What a wonderful gentle friend and guide to have☺☺☺

I think the spirit does talk. In different ways with different people. We also though have to be careful. Satan we are told comes as an angel of light., that voice we are hearing we think is the HS may not be.
Thats why as someone mentioned earlier we have to be in the word. There is no other way to discern if something is from God or not that the truth of his word. For is is all we can trust as to be the true words of God inspired

John 6:45 KJV
“Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets; Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it unto you.”
Acts 13:38-41 KJV

Its amazing what can happen in prayer and when we remind each other just how great God is.
An ecouragement spoken to someone can bring so much peace
And a reminder of just how great our holy spirit of God is can truly pick you up.
The power of the holy spirit is amazing The light of the holy spirit one day will fill every where and all peoples will becomes living jewels and all darkness will be gone.
I once saw an amazing vision befor i came to understand and read all of the word of
God
First i saw a great white light in the sky at night in the form of a white dove it flapped its wings from star to star.
Then i read this scipture afterwards
Luke 3:22 22and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased."
I could talk about the holy spirit all day long truly inspiring the wonders of light
is every where to. Gods glory and light is every where from the sky at day to the sky at night. God really is everwhere.
