The Spirit was not yet

The Spirit today contains all that Jesus passed through as a man.

The redemptive shedding of His blood has its effect to impart righteousness to us in the Holy Spirit. This is why when a man receives the Spirit of Christ his innermost human spirit is made divine life "because of righteousness".

Here Paul says in regeneration the righteousness enliven with the divine life the deadened human spirit.

" But if Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, the [human] spirit is life because of righteousness." (Romans 8:10)

We have pointed out that in the Bible the Spirit is the consummation of the Triune God after the process of becoming the all-inclusive, compound, life-giving Spirit. Hence, the Spirit is nothing less than the Triune God Himself. However, this is not the Triune God apart from the process through which He has passed. The Spirit is the Triune God after He has passed through the process of incarnation, human living, crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension. Having passed through this process, the Triune God is now this consummate Spirit as the blessing of the New Testament. The Spirit is the blessing of God’s economy. First the gospel concerning this blessing was preached to our father Abraham. Now, as children of Abraham, we should follow his steps to enjoy the Spirit as the unique blessing of God’s New Testament economy.

THE FUNCTION OF THE COMPOUND SPIRIT

Having seen the elements of the compound Spirit, we may now say a word regarding the function of this Spirit. The function of the compound Spirit is to anoint the dwelling place of God with its furniture and utensils (Exo. 30:26-29) and to anoint the priesthood of God (30:30). This indicates that the compound Spirit is for God’s building and for His priesthood. If we are not for God’s building and priesthood, we cannot have any share in the compound Spirit, although we may have some enjoyment of and participation in the Spirit of God, the Spirit of the Lord, and the Holy Spirit. Only those who are for the building of God and the priesthood of God can have the enjoyment of the compound, all-inclusive, processed Spirit. All the ingredients, all the rich elements, of the compound Spirit are for God’s house and God’s priesthood.

I realize that some of this is over people's head. And I realize some will accuse me of being pompous for saying this.

But we all need to come UP. We should not always want the Bible to be dumbed down. We have to try to rise a little higher in our appreciation. We should seek to come up a little.

Some Bible readers should allow themselves to lift their appreciation up a little.
God reaches His whole corporate enterprise as a Spirit which includes Divinity and the Man Jesus with all of His living, death, resurrection, attainments and obtainments.

God prepares in His eternal Spirit all the living of our Lord And Savior Jesus like the preparing of a all-inclusive health drink that contains everything one could possibly need.

The OINTMENT is a substance for rubbing around. It is like the action of PAINTING. All the cracks are filled in with the paint. And all the cracks and crevices of our being must be painted over, anointed over with this Holy Spirit. Everything of is in this Spirit that Jesus became.

"the last Adam became a life giving Spirit" (1 Cor. 15:45)

Ask me what you want to know. I've posted my belief on the godhead several times in the forum and your responded to them every time as I remember. Let's try again. I believe that truth starts with the fundamental claims that God makes about himself. These need to be well founded, repeated and unquestionable. Such as:

1) God is unchanging - sonship won ...[text shortened]... at from the sky or how many times Jesus prayed to the father. The base truth is that God is ONE.

Many people of high esteem were called god.

The phrase “Mighty God” can also be better translated. Although the word “God” in the Hebrew culture had a much wider range of application than it does in ours, the average reader does not know or understand that.

" Even the Spirit of reality, whom the world cannot RECEIVE, because it does not behold Him or know Him;

but you know Him, because He abides with you and shall be in you.

I will not leave you as orphans; I am coming to you." (John 14:17,18)

" That if you confess with our mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead. you shall be saved. (v.9) ...

For the Scripture says, "Everyone who believes on Him shall not be put to shame. (v.11)

For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord is Lord of all and rich to all who call upon Him;" (v.13)

For 'whoever calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.' "( v.14)

"And everyone who calls on the name of Jehovah shall be saved; For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem will be an escape, As Jehovah has said, Even for the remnant Whom Jehovah calls." (Joel 2:32)

Without God within human life is a vanity.
So we need the Spirit of reality. He will also comfort us as another Comforter.

The Comforter was Jesus in the flesh among the disciples.
The "another Comforter" was that same Jesus in another form as the Spirit of reality.

So the coming of the "another Comforter" Who is "the Spirit of reality" is absolutely the coming of Jesus into man.

" ... the Spirit of reality ... you know Him, because He abides with you and shall be in you.

I will not leave you as orphans; I am coming to you.

Yet a little while and the world beholds Me no longer, but you behold Me; because I live, you also shall live." (John 14:17b-19)

Readers familiar with the Semitic languages know that a man who is acting with God’s authority can be called “god.” Although English makes a clear distinction between “God” and “god,” the Hebrew language, which has only capital letters, cannot. A better translation for the English reader would be “mighty hero,” or “divine hero.”
Since you will now attempt to come back with verse after verse, let's make it easy and just go here to find most of them.

" But now Jehovah, You are our Father; We are the clay; and You, our Potter." ( Isaiah 64:8a)

This morning I turned to the Holy Spirit within calling on the name of the Lord Jesus.
He delivered me from my sinful nature. So I believe Jesus is mighty and the Mighty God.

Is Jesus Mighty God in your experience ?

"The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of the Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever."

"But when the kindness and the love to man of our Savior God appeared..." (Titus 3:4)

" For in this way the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be richly and bountifully supplied to you." ( 2 Pet. 1:11)

Now why is He called "Mighty God" ? For the same reason.
He is the "Mighty God".[/b]
