\n David<\/span><\/p>\n=============<\/span><\/p>\nGreetings in Jesus’ name, David!<\/em><\/span><\/p>\nThe only commandment that I can find in the Scriptures that must be obeyed in order for someone to receive the holy Ghost is to repent.\u00a0 Please do not think that the ceremonial form of fasting from food will avail anything.\u00a0 That was an Old Testament form of worship.\u00a0 You and those precious souls with you may actually become so hungry for God that you forget to eat natural food for a time — and that is a good thing — but to schedule a time of not eating natural food is a worthless fleshly exercise.\u00a0 It is vain will-worship.\u00a0 The only kind of fast that God recognizes now is described in Isaiah 58.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\nIf after all this time, you all have not received the holy Ghost yet, then God is demanding something other than what you are doing.\u00a0 You have not completed your repentance.\u00a0 It may just be that He is waiting for you to renounce the religious system called Christianity and trust only in His Son (as we here have done) so that when He baptizes you with His holy Spirit, God alone (with Jesus) gets all the glory.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\nNo ritual and no religious system will give you the Spirit.\u00a0 Simply humble yourselves to hear and obey the word of the Lord that will come to you directly from heaven.\u00a0 Jesus will lead you into the way of eternal life if you trust him and abandon the ways of this sinful, religious world.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\nYour servant in Christ,
