How would I show them God's love? Sorry, I have not been baptized with the Holy Spirit yet and I'm not really sure.
"If you are saved, you have the holy spirit within you, but you must feed your spirit with the word of God, and you must first know God before you can spread God's love." by KLUB If you are... that's pretty vague. Personal opinions on salvation count for nothing. Obedience to the Word of God is everything.
How will you know if you are saved, Juk? That's why it is so important to read your New Testament. The answer is in there, not with TV pastors and the like.
Mark 1:8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.
Matthew 3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
Luk 3:16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:
Acts 1:5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
Acts 2:3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to
speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
Mark 16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.* black & white, no 50 shades of grey here!
Mark 16:17 And these
signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils;
they shall speak with new tongues;
Acts 5:32 And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost,
whom God hath given to them that obey him.
Acts 2:37 Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren,
what shall we do?
Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them,
Repent, and be
baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission[forgiveness] of sins, and ye
shall receive the gift of the
Holy Ghost.- ye is plural form of you: everybody, you all, etc.
Acts 2:39 For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off,
even as many as the Lord our God shall call.
THIS IS THE GOSPEL OF SALVATION - one gospel, one faith, one way that is pleasing and acceptable to Jesus,
Acts 10:44 While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all them which heard the word.
Acts 10:45 And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter,
because that on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.
Acts 10:46
For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,
Acts 10:47
Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?
Acts 10:48 And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.
Rom 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you.
Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
Juk, when you read the New Testament you will see it is all about the Spirit-filled church and people becoming saved by water baptism and baptism in the Holy Spirit with the Bible evidence of speaking (praying) in tongues [praying in the Spirit].
God is not the author of confusion. People do that themselves through their unbelief and disobedience to the Word. It is why there are at least 5,000 "christian" denominations - when originally there was only one!
1Corinthians 14:21 In the law it is written, With men of
other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will
they not hear me, saith the Lord.
1Corinthians 14:22
Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe.
Juk, pray to Jesus to lead you personally to the truth, ask Jesus bring you to salvation. Don't just rely on other people and their opinions.
There has to be only one way, one standard - otherwise how can Jesus judge people against his Word. The rules have to consistent and known, in order for people to know if they are obeying them or not.
