Gregor,

Amongst family it is fine to disagree as we still remain united by the bond that is established in Christ.
Right or wrong we must never get sidetracked from our purpose as the Lord set out for us.
You are a good brother to me in our Saviour.

Our terminology may in fact be the only difference. The Holy Spirit being upon someone is what I was attempting to describe unsuccessfully in my earlier post to you. I believe we can have more of what we already possess.

Long ago in thinking on the gifts of the Holy Spirit I asked God according to His will to bless me with what I could best use in His service as a blessing to others. I believe with all my heart that He has done so.

I have had Christians gently criticize me for not speaking in tongues saying that I do not have evidence of the Spirit without it.

I wholeheartedly disagree with them. Your thoughts are valued even if we disagree. You know I count you a friend with Dan here. We agree on the most important issues, and that is what I truly put store in. The rest of what we do here is for our edification in studying God's precious word.

Your brother in Christ,
John
