In Jerusalem

The Holy Spirit came down, like many tongues of fire, as a fulfillment of prophesy from the book of Joel. In the many tongues those who assembled in Jerusalem spoke lay the unassailable proof of God being among mankind.
Our standing with God is our righteousness made secure by the Spirit. No man can access to God except through the office of Holy Spirit. Thus whoever accepts Jesus must be under the working of the Holy Spirit. Each of us does hold that Spirit by faith. But do we do anything further with it? Do we shake off the spirit of despondency with it? Do we fight the spirit of rebelliousness with the Spirit that is holy? Do we forgive those who spread malicious gossip about us? Do we try to grow in the knowledge after the example of him?
When Peter guessed who his master really was what did Jesus say? “ For flesh and blood has not revealed unto thee but my Father which is in heaven.” ( St.Matt.16:17) We ought to create conditions for our growth with the Spirit that is given to us.
Spirit is creative: he that is within you is the spirit of truth(St.Jn14:27). So when we are assailed by the spirit of this world and we need answers to the way we ought to go why not take time to listen to what soul says?
We are in search of the truth. Aren't we?
