The honeymoon period

[littlemr]

From realizing the fire of the holy ghosts to rebirth, then to new life. The processes to salvation have never been know, however many have tried to formulate the steps (And the steps well after)

One formula that has been popular is the hunymoon period shortly after newbirth. It begins with an auspicious affair that wears off after the honeymoon is over.

There doesn't seem to be any indication that this process into life comes directly from the bible. Not know to the prophets, nor to the disciples this concept suggests an inappropriate relationship with the creator of the universe.

It happens to all who have had a FIREY conversion. Quite normal. Pointed to specifically in Rev. 2:4-5. We tend to, over time, forget who we were DIVIDED from.

It will pass.

To many it is an emotional experience that at times can be deceiving as like you said the Honeymoon does not last and this is because many give lip service to the Lord instead of a hearts condition to Him.
