we are sealed with the promised Holy Spirit

Last week we watched a video teaching done by Rob Bell called "breathe", we were able to discuss our thoughts a bit and then we dove into scripture.

Last week we really sat on Ephesians 1:11-13.

I highly recommended (and still do) that we re read this passage this week and even read through the book of Ephesians with our discussion on our hearts. We HAVE this Holy Spirit, that was promised, and it is sealed in us. We are crowned with glory and honor, and we not only have our breathes that God has given to us, but we as a people of God who have heard the Word of Truth and excepted the gospel of our salvation, also have the inheritance and promised Holy Spirit sealed in us.

This is great news.

We will be talking about the Holy Spirit a lot

We will be talking about God a lot

We will be talking about Jesus a lot


                              We will be learning to consider that "He is able" in all things, and that we can trust in Him

  2. You know I've heard that the holy spirit or soul actually ways something. Like they put a person on a scale as they were dying and when the person died all of a sudden their weight went down about an ounce. No physical change though.

    Anybody else heard about this?
