Talk, talk, talk, talk. A whole lot of talking. Even the unsaved are talking about Jesus and being saved. Even the unsaved are talking about the love of God. Even the unsaved are trying to tell the Church what it should be doing.
Thank the Lord for the provisions made in scripture concerning the Holy Ghost. All this talking is further demonstration that there are a lot of souls that have not been filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues as the Spirit give utterance. If more souls had the Holy Ghost, there would be no need to do all that talking. There would be more praying and demonstration of the love of God. For the Bible says you shall power after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you. When the Holy Ghost fills a soul, the flesh does not rule. When the Holy Ghost fills a soul, that person desires to obey and fulfill the scriptures. When the Holy Ghost fills a soul, there are no more excuses made for sin or wrong doing. Humbleness comes, fear of God comes, denying self become a priority. The love of God extends more than just giving someone a hug or a smile. The love of God extends more than just paying someones bills or giving someone some money. The love of God demonstrates obedience to the Word of God. The love of God demonstrates restraint when you suffer ill will. The love of God will have a soul seeking the Lord for direction and answers and not the internet or some group. When the Lord said let the wheat and the tare grow together, He knew what he was doing. He knew that the day would come when those that do not have the Holy Ghost would manifest such. He knew that the day would come when those without the Holy Ghost would be the ones trying to run the Church and operate 'in the Spirit'. He knew that the day would come when those without the Holy Ghost would be the ones doing more talking and people drawing to false ways and teachings. Thus the Lord said, to let the wheat and the tare grow together. He said He would separate. And, He is doing just that. The Word of God does not need to be argued or fought. The Word of God stands on its own. The Word of God just needs to held onto and preached like it is written. It will stand on its own. It takes Holy boldness and love for Jesus Christ to preach and teach His word the way it is written. Everyone professing Holiness is not Holy. Holiness requires initial actions. It requires repentance from sin. It requires baptism in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remissions of those sins. It requires being filled with the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance. One can be baptized in Jesus Name and still not be saved. If repentance has not taken place, there is no salvation. Having good thoughts does to mean one is saved. Marvel not, you must be born again. Have you received the Holy Ghost since you first believed?
