John,
I have thought about this past weekend all day long. I have so many scenes burned into my memory. I am so thankful I was able to go to Louisville. Saturday night was not of this world, and Sunday was more of the same. I don’t think my eyes were dry all morning. I really don’t know how to describe it. That actually happened too. I was talking to the man at work who has the holy Ghost that I have been talking to on and off for the last few months, and really couldn’t get it out in any kind of way that he could understand. I told him that it was the most clean and holy thing I think I have ever experienced. He started in with the “Be careful of what you’re feeling” speech, and “How do you know that was God?”
I tried to explain it to him the best I could, but he was already building a wall between us. He changed the conversation to the book of Revelation and started trying to explain that this country is Babylon, and it is going to fall and all that yuk. Thankfully, someone walked up and our conversation ended. It is very sad to me how many of God’s people will do that when you talk about real life and freedom in the Spirit. I hope the Lord will tear down the wall he has put up between us. I really like him. He is a gentle man with a good heart. I believe that christianity has made him the way he is. This experience today makes me hate that thing even more.
Thank you John, for loving the truth like you do. It is great encouragement for us. If you can love it that much, we can also. If you can be consumed by the Spirit to that extent, so can we.
