Could I have Left-Arm of Holy Spirit Please?
For right now, let's not fight/discuss/debate the 'baptism in (or of) Holy Spirit', please.
I am hopeful you will agree that Holy Spirit is a 'Person,' as is God the Father and God the Son. If you do not believe the Bible clearly teaches the trinity; we've not anything to discuss.
Since Spirit is a Person, why do we often hear, "Lord, give me more of Your Spirit?" I think, at least in some cases, I 'get' the sentiment, but words are important.
Ephesians 5.18 has the continuous action, "keep being filled with the Spirit," because we all leak.
But do I currently have, say, His left arm and right foot and maybe neck? How can I have "more" of a Person?
The bottom line, at least to me, is rather simple - it is not a question of how much of Holy Spirit I have; but rather how much of me does He have.
What thinkest thou?
