the witness of the holy spirit And Why did I become a Christian?

persistent · Oct 19, 2022

Yes You are right and i saw the Holy Spirit became a spiritual dove. Appearing like golden fire.
biblical account, the bush was on fire, but was not consumed by the flames, hence the name.In the biblical narrative, the burning bush is the location at which Moses was appointed by Yahweh to lead the Israelites out of Egypt and into Canaan.
Source Wikipedia
And
Acts 2:3
King James Version
3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

What should I do the world hates me with a cause. And I don’t know what Jesus think. How do I get the creator of creators to fix me.[/QUOTE

The Lord Jesus --God's "...beloved Son" will FIX all things by faith in Him; as John 3:16; John 14; John 17; Romans 8; 1 Jn. 5:10-12; etc. show us. Read these verses and hear our Creator God speaking to you, friend! Make the Lord Jesus your 'best Friend' and Savior of your soul forever, by prayer and talking with Him daily. Read ALL the four Gospel books of the Bible and hear our God speaking to you. Religion does not save one, but a personal Relationship with our Savior: Jesus Christ is who we need. Write to 1holdingforth 1 @hotmail.com and you can learn more of our Holy Bible.

I am only replying to you because you notified me of your post. I understand that you want to become a child of God and you have considered yourself one since 2021.

I should not be criticizing your approach to God and Christianity but since you asked, I can only direct you back to God, and his word, the bible, if you are serious about getting to know him.

Maybe you are not really serious about your new found faith because your approach is without a sense of who God is, which means that God is not leading you, but you are leading yourself by mimicking the things that happened to people in the book of Acts.

To be honest that is dishonest and affront to God. Stop what you are doing if you really are serious about knowing the One True God and come to him in humility and then read the bible to understand his ways.

To be sure most people cannot come to God because God did not call them; if God called you he would have put his word into your heart as to who you are (in relation to him) and what it is that you are required to do in order to please him.

Maybe the best thing for you to do, is to stop doing what you are doing right now and start over from scratch, and ask yourself the question - am I a hypocrite or am I deceiving myself. Answer those 2 questions before you even come before God.

Hello Siddhi, Hope you are feeling better. Maybe this message will help you. I would like to post you two more messages which are of faith and healing the way I understand the Bible and maybe the way Jesus even now works. Or maybe His Father. Since I am also new to all this and chat room too you must also find someone to help in understanding what the Bible says and check on things I write here to find if the things I write are correct. Like you may have seen where I wrote about Psalm 1:1 and about the way '...nor standeth in the way....' is understood. I talked with someone at an Assemblies of God congregation here in Chicago and she seems very knowledgeable and said that most likely the way I put it may not be a way to understand that part of that verse. But she did say that she thought I should talk with one of the ministers. So now I emailed the minister and am waiting for a reply. I talked with her 20 October Thursday. On Wednesday 19 October I pray about getting a 'sign' from God that I am doing right things in the way I am living. And earlier same day I talked with a teacher from a group that practices religion of the Old Testament. I told him about how I pray and look for signs and he says Jews ask for signs is what the Bible says. And I am not Jewish but when I pray I say to God I maybe shouldn't ask but I do. You may not understand this but the sign happened and at first I didn't know it until I talked with the person at Assemblies of God. So now I wrote a lot here and hope you stay trying to believe what the Bible says and I have two more messages to post for you. If you like, answer with word OK and I will post messages.

Siddhi, I looked again at your posts and see that maybe your mom helps you. But sounds like your mom only likes King James Bible. Some people say when James was king of England he made sure that people would have a Bible that would be good to read. So now some people think that Bible of the year 1611 is best Bible. The Bible before 1611 was Bishop's Bible in England and many different Bibles in the world and all of Bibles are about Jesus. If a Bible is not about Jesus then something is wrong. Same today. Bible must be about Jesus. Even without the Bible people know about Jesus. Not everything, but they hear and know and maybe some even have experience like you and me. When I have experience with Angels I never read any Bible. I do not remember seeing a Bible until I was in jail when I was 16 and they give me New Testament, but I never read any. I used the paper to roll tobacco in so I could smoke. So now I was listening to music on internet and many different sites are listed and please listen to this one and maybe you will find it important and meaningful for you. Who this is about I never hear of til now. Siddhi, listen especially to the recording of this link starting at 6 minutes and 20 seconds about how he had to tell the girls family to leave the room. Then later read the commentary that I refer to in the next post of Alexander MacLaren about how Jesus could not heal people in His hometown of Nazareth because of unbelief.

Matthew 7:7 ¶ Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened..............Siddhi, the following verses say you need to find people who have faith and healing gifts. Maybe people with Assemblies of God. Look for them in your area on Google. I don't know how to find people who have faith but these groups may have some people of faith. You see the verse of Matthew 7 here says you need to seek till you find. Mark 9:23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.

Matthew 9:2 And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.3 And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth. 4 And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts? 5 For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk? 6 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house. 7 And he arose, and departed to his house.

James 5:14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

you may find this enjoyable

Hello Siddhi, I do remember you when I pray and ask if Jesus would help you. Most of my life I do not want to seek Heavenly things. I see now that is not good. I see in your post you say, “I was a pure vegetarian because consuming non-vegetarian food is sinful.” Now Siddhi think about this; where did you hear about what is sin? Maybe you have wrong idea of sin. You say in your post, “I remember sinning as a child. Because of this I want salvation”. Maybe when you said this God heard you. That must be why you see The Holy Spirit or an Angel. I know you think it is Holy Spirit and you may be correct. To me it seems it could be Angel. Maybe more important for you to now study to know if you can get healing from God. Now you know God call you by the sign that you saw in the mirror. Now what is important for you to know and do? Some on this chat site may try and help you just like some help me but read here from book to Romans ((((3:9 What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; 10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: 11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.))))) Siddhi, everybody in the world is sinner. So now you must search for those with gift of healing. I will help all I can, When I pray I sometime remind God what a liar I am but He already knows I am liar so it is more to remind myself. Everybody should pray like this maybe. See what God tell the people here; Romans 3:3 For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect? 4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.

Siddhi, we should look for these people 1 Corinthians 12:8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; 9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
