A Living History

"Ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ... written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God" (2 Corinthians 3:3)

In our world there is still the holy witness of the Spirit, who in all things speaks for this Man who sits on the throne.

The Holy Spirit is here now to convince the world, and however we treat the warning of the Holy Spirit is exactly how we treat Jesus Christ Himself.

If faith must depend upon a man knowing enough of the historical evidences to arrive at a scholarly belief in the deity of Jesus, then there could only be a relatively few people saved.

But I do not have to be a scholar, a logician or a lawyer to arrive at belief in the deity of the Lord Jesus Christ, for the Holy Spirit has taken the deity of Christ out of the hands of the scholars and put it in the consciences of men.

The Spirit of God came to lift it out of the history books and write it on the fleshy tablets of the human heart.

The Holy Spirit is called the Spirit of Christ because He brings to us the presence of Jesus and enables us to realize our oneness with Him.
