Faith In The Hands Of The Holy Spirit (ePub)

Faith In The Hands Of The Holy Spirit: This book informs us on the faith that works. Generally we have one particlar faith, but not the saving faith. the faith I am speaking of is the saving faith, which is the one that comes by hearing of the gospel of Christ. In this case, I observe that it is one thing to receive faith from the gospel; which is very important. But the most important thing is putting the faith to work. When the faith received in the gospel is not continually in the hands of the Holy Spirit who brought it, to drive it; such faith is not at work. Even when it is forced to work, it is said to be driven to oppose the will of God, because it is not in the hands of the Holy Spirit to drive it into God's plan. St James informs us that the faith that does not work is dead. He refers this on love and caring for one another. James 2:14-16. connect this to what St Paul says in Romans 5 vers 5, we will see that the Holy Spirit mentioned, is the very one that must operate the faith in our hearts to do God's will in loving and caring for one another; or this faith is said to be dead as St James says.The faith in the hands of the Holy Spirit has the ability to grow, because the person that feeds it is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit nurses the faith and at the same time strengthens it. Only in the hands of the Holy Spirit that faith plays good roles, for the Spirit knows the mind of God. One might say "I have faith." I agree. But such of faith must be questioned of it source and by whose hands it operates; for its may be confused for the saving faith. The faith that dose not come from the gospel can never be given to the Holy Spirit to drive, for it's not from Him and can never rest in His hands. We all want our faith to work, but the sad thing is this; the saving faith is not found in every man, but are given to us from God through the gospel of Christ. Unhealthy faith needs to be put back in the hands of the Holy Spirit or it shipwrecked.
