“Pastor
I'm not sure on this one, is it only those who refuse to come to the
Lord, who are the ones who quench the spirit?...
Shelley/
-Dalton, Georgia U.S.A.
Bible Answer:
Bible Texts:
I
Thessalonians 5:19 KJV
Quench*
not The Spirit.
Quench-Greek:
sbennumi (Sben-noo-mee): To
extinguish: go out, quench.
This is a WARNING, from the Apostle Paul.
We were once lost, out on a dark ocean of sin and death, but our
precious Lord, threw us a Life Line, to the ship of Salvation,
God's grace and mercy.
Salvation, comes only through The Lord Jesus Christ, God The Father's
one and only eternal dear Son.
The Life Line, is none other than the work of God The Holy Spirit.
If we cut the Life Line, how can we be saved? We will not be.

and hath done despite unto The Spirit Of Grace?

- By claiming the works of God, are of the devil.
- By ingratitude.
- By being contaminated by the world of sin.

wise,
16

are all the children of Light, and the children of the day: we are
not of the night, nor of darkness.
6
Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be
sober.
7
For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are
drunken in the night.
8
But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate
of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
Revelation
3:20 KJV
"Behold,
I stand at the door..."
Romans
14:11,12 KJV
11
For it is written, As I live, saith The Lord, every knee shall bow to
Me, and every tongue shall confess to God.
12
So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
Dear friend, when that day comes, may it not be said of us, that we
grieved The Holy Spirit Of God.
Breath
On Me, Breath Of God
Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Fill me with life anew,
That I may love what Thou dost love,
And do what Thou wouldst do.
Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Until my heart is pure,
Until with Thee I will one will,
To do and to endure.
Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Till I am wholly Thine,
Until this earthly part of me
Glows with Thy fire divine.
Breathe on me, Breath of God,
So shall I never die,
But live with Thee the perfect life
Of Thine eternity.
