"Beloved,believe not every spirit,but try the spirits whether they are of God:because many false prophets are gone out into the world."1John 4:1
We live in days in which even Satan has transformed into an angelof light,that is,an acclaimed truth bearer.The days are full of hypocrisy and deceits from the pit of hell.The undiscerning and simple minded believes every fallacy of the devil.
"The simple believeth every word;but the prudent man looketh well to his going." Proverbs 14:15
Today,some religions of the satanic world in mimicking our most holy christian faith go about teaching and organizing seminars and workshops on the holy spirit.
These are the wicked servants of satan who speak falsely of what they do not understand.
So,how do we differentiate the Holy Spirit from the false holy spirits of the demonic occult religions?
The Holy Spirit is known by:
1.BEARING THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST
The Holy Spirit functions on earth in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ,Immanuel(God with us).He has been sent in Jesus Christ name by God the Father.Any religion whose name for the holy spirit bears no name of Lord Jesus Christ is false and should be disregarded.
"But the comforter which is the Holy Ghost,whom the Father will send in my name,he shall teach you all things,and bring all things to your remembrance,whatsoever I have said unto you. " John 14:26.
Dear Friend,the Holy Ghost comes in Jesus name,teaches us all truth and brings to our remembrance all that Jesus taught in his word of life.The Holy Spirit does not teach Yoga,mysticism,occultism,esoteric and exoteric practices,nor transcendental meditation etc.
2.CONFESSING JESUS CHRIST AS COME IN BODILY FORM
The Holy Spirit confesses that Jesus Christ came in the flesh to save mankind from sin.
"And the word(Jesus) was made flesh and dwelt among us,(and we beheld his glory,the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,)full of grace and truth."John1:14
Any spirit that denies the coming of Jesus Christ in the bodily form amongst men, claiming Jesus was an apparition or an illusion is the spirit of the Anti-Christ.Jesus lived,healed,died and rose again after three nights and days on earth before ascending to heaven.
Thomas the Apostle,felt his body after his resurrection to prove his bodily existence.
"Then saith he to Thomas,Reach hither thy finger ,and behold my hands;and reach hither thy hand and thrust it into my side:and be not faithless,but believing.And Thomas answered and said,My Lord and my God." John20:27-28
The Holy Spirit must and will forever confess that Jesus came in the flesh.
"Hereby know ye the spirit of God:Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God:and this is that spirit of antichrist,whereof ye have heard that it should come:and even now already is it in the world."1John4:2-3
3.GLORIFYING JESUS CHRIST
The Holy Spirit magnifies Jesus.He does signs and wonders in Jesus name.He convicts sinners of sin and makes them humbly confess their sins to Jesus for forgiveness.He heals the sick,comforts the broken-hearted and teaches the saint the way of life and truth.All activities of the Holy Spirit are to glorify Jesus Christ.
"He (Holy Spirit) shall glorify me:for he shall receive of mine,and shall shew it unto you." John16:14
Hence,any spirit that glorifies a preacher or a religious leader and not Christ Jesus is not the Holy Spirit,but a false spirit.
Dear Friend,may the Holy Spirit live and work exceedingly in you as you boldly confess and glorify Jesus Christ.Amen.
