IIT would be a testimony from GOD that we are the children of GOD. JESUS baptizes with that SPIRIT - WHY would I need to look for God and miracles as proof of God when HIs own spirit testifies to my spirit that JESUS lives? "THE kingdom of GOD is within" and like Jacob who wrestled with the angel of the lord why would I want to let go of the lord in prayer before i had received his promise (until he blessed me) if i have that sign from GOD then i Belong to the lord and have been washed, sanctified and justified just as zESUS told isrealies teacher NICODEMUS who did not understand that need "unless you are born again you will not enter the kingdom of god. I did not receive the spirit or had no evidence that I did when i was baptized as an infant. I always felt god was around but not in me. " romans 8:16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children. WHSAT MORE IMPOrTant in this life then to have God tell me iM in. AS JESUS TAUGHT of first importance seek that Kingdom and that rightesness and then the rest will be added as needed.that came from the book of acts. so why do you need that book when all you need is the spirit of Christ?
those people in the UK back then didnt have bibles now thats what i call faith.
WHY ALL THE QUESTIONS OVER IMPORTANCE of the NEW creation ?
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his(you don't belong to JESUS)
AND since JESUS Sends/baptizes by that Sprit NO ONE enters the kingdom of GOD except BY HIM. BORN oF god by THE lords will not a husbands will.
