Only the Spirit can Give you a Seat at the Table
This week Pr Joe is joined by Tom Helmich, Tevo Christmann and first-time special guest Bryan O'Patry to discuss the first chapter of the book of Acts.
This discussion follows up Tom's message this past Sunday where he talked about the primacy of the work of the Holy Spirit over any thing done by human beings. As an example he discussed baptism as a sacrament performed in obedience, but whose validity really comes from the Spirit rather than any sacred rite or special pastoral ordination. This means that anyone who has the Spirit has a seat at the Table of Christ. No one can take that away from us.
"You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him." (Romans 8:9)
