Arnie and Fred begin this new episode by discussing how the Holy Spirit works today. We note that many will tell you that they understand what the Bible says based on something that the Holy Spirit does to reveal the true meaning to them apart from what the words actually say. Since they believe the Holy Spirit leads them directly, they think they cannot be wrong in their understanding, no matter what someone might show them. They will even deny a plain Bible verse. We discuss where this erroneous belief comes from. We will ultimately look at 31 items that show that the Holy Spirit uses His sword, the word of God, to do His work among men today. We start with how we are spiritually begotten. John records what Jesus says about that, and both James and Paul expand upon it. Jesus tells us how we are born again or from above and Peter explains it to us clearly. Our heart is quickened, and it is done so through the sword of the Spirit, the word of God. We look at five passages that explain that to us. We also discuss our spiritual cleansing and how that occurs. Peter and John talk about our souls being purified. We note what they say about that. Next, we discuss what James and Paul say about how our soul is saved. We close out this episode by looking at how we are justified. Take about 30-minutes to listen in on our discussion. Have your Bible handy so you can verify what we are saying. There is a transcript of this Buzzsprout episode provided for your convenience.
