What role does the Holy Spirit in my Conversion? He said the Holy Spirit would speak, revealing the truth, and certain things to come (John 16:13). The Word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword (Hebrews 4:12). The Word of God is the sword of the Spirit (Ephesians 6:14). The gospel is the power of God to save (Romans 1:1.6). We know we know him if we keep his commandments (I John 2:3-5). Hence, the truth stands out vividly, it's undeniable: The Holy Spirit converts men through the revealed and written Word of God in the New Testament. If the Holy Spirit operates in a direct way, apart from the Word, why are there no Christians in some countries? If the Holy Spirit operates directly on some, and not on others, God becomes a respecter of persons. The Bible, however, says that he is not (Acts 10:34-35). No one in the New Testament ever prayed for a direct, miraculous operation of the Holy Spirit.

Propositions Concerning Animal Magnetism, Franz Anton Mesmer ... There are many modern images of mesmerism in today's culture, like the way the Emperor from Star Wars, zapped Luke with electricity coming from his hands. Even today's hypnotists mislead audiences that they possess some inherent power they are able to transmit from their hands to the person being hypnotized. Since hysteria is all in the mind, Mesmer found a deceptive, but effective cure in Mesmerism. The placebo and nocebo effects are well documented forms of simple hypnotism, which is nothing more than the power of suggestion. In Acts 8, Simon the sorcerer was called "the great power of god". However when he saw the apostle Peter lay his hands on a man and impart one of the 9 supernatural powers listed in 1 Cor 12, Simon converted to Christianity and gave up his "Mesmerism".

To be sure, when the world became filled with corruption and violence, God selected a man of great faith through whom he could ultimately bless this corrupt world. To preserve his faith through the centuries until the Christ should come, God built a barrier between Israel and the Gentile world. But after Christ came, this "wall of partition" was taken away, as the Apostle Paul says in Ephesians 2: 14. It took a miracle to convince Peter of this fact, but after the vision on the housetop, he said to Cornelius in Acts 10: 34,35, "Of a truth I perceive that God is no respector of persons; but in every nation he that feareth him and worketh righteousness, is acceptable to him".

The 7 Promises Of God to Man God's promise to Abraham was first spelled out in Genesis Chapter 12. It was repeated in Chapter 22. Verse 18 reads: "And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice". Now a promise is of no more value than is the ability of the one who makes it to carry through. It also includes willingness to do so. God did carry through with Abraham. Paul points out in Galatians 3:16, that it was through Christ God intended to fulfill the promise to Abraham. Also in Acts 13:32-33, the Apostle says: "And we declare unto you glad tidings how that the promise which was made unto the fathers, God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again."
