And so it was with me, brothers and sisters. When I came to you, I did not come with eloquence or human wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God. For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. I came to you in weakness with great fear and trembling. My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit's power, so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God's power
God the Holy Spirit brings and demonstrates God's power in and through you who believe, love and obey Him. Nothing done through human wisdom is lasting. But, the works of God through God the Holy Spirit lasts forever. What God says is demonstrated through His power. The fruit, the gifts and the works of God the Holy Spirit are demonstrations of God's power in and through you. This brings about God's everlasting Christformation in you. Your faith must rest on God's power in and through you. God the Holy Spirit is God's power that fills and overflows through you. He fills you with Christ's divine nature and brings all His eternal works to be fulfilled in and through you. He does one more great thing that no one else can do in your life. He helps you put to death all the misdeeds of the sinful nature of the Devil in you. No one else can do this in you. He is the One sent by the Father and His Christ to do this in you. He would need your complete obedience to all that Christ had commanded, which He will remind you of. Only a thirsty spirit and soul will obey Christ till the end.
John 7: 37-39
On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood and said in a loud voice, "Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them." By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.
Who can stand before the power of God's Spirit? Can any man or woman escape from eternal death, if he or she blasphemes God the Holy Spirit? Can any man or woman escape eternal punishment for adding or subtracting the truth of God's word which the Spirit of truth brings to us? Even if you claim that you are some sort of expert in interpretation of the Bible, if you add or subtract from God's word, then just be prepared. Messing with God's word is a serious sin before the LORD. What more, if you use it to lie your way through so that you can achieve what pleases your selfish desires and passions. You might justify your actions with sinful men like you and get away with it because they don't understand truth just like you don't, but not from God. You cannot escape from God! He is waiting at the end of your way, when you exceed God's limit for your evil ways. For the moment, it is piling up! Go on doing what you are doing, until your time arrives with Him.
