   Yet “christians†harbor the thoughts of satan teaching that the   
   gifts of the Holy Spirit of God, wane.   
      
   What foolishness. That plays right into the hands of the evil one, sowing   
   seeds of doubt. Doubt that would cause confusion and further weaken the weak   
   as that gives credence to the power of Satan and weakens the faith of babes.   
      
   Some foolish doubters even claim that the works of God disappeared after the   
   book of Galatians, and it was written before the books to the Corinthian by   
   several years, and it is in the books of Corinthians where the gifts of the   
   Holy Spirit are spoken of as well as ministries. And Pau; went tp the   
   Galatiams before his missionary journey too the Corinthians and elsewhere as   
   well.   
      
   1Co 14:39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak   
   with tongues.   
      
   Just an example of the proof that their doctrines are wrong. That they teach   
   another Gospel.   
      
   1Jn 4:4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because   
   greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.   
      
   1Jn 4:5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the   
   world heareth them.   
      
   1Jn 4:6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God   
   heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.   
      
   Those in whom the Holy Spirit does not dwell is not of God.   
      
   Rom 8:8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.   
      
   Rom 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the   
   Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he   
   is none of his.   
      
   I share these things for the well being of those who desire to be of Christ   
   and strengthened by the spirit of God. Let the weak be strong in the Lord.
