How Convinced

  The following is from J. Rufus Moseley as recorded in the book Ineffable Union With Christ:  Living in the Kingdom (Selected Writings of J. Rufus Moseley, 1927-1937) compiled and edited by Gregory S. Camp:

"If you question the testimony that Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and the holy angels gave to the apostles, and all who have been prepared to receive it from then until now, Jesus, if He is risen and alive, it is only natural for Him to reveal and manifest Himself to you, and to take charge of your life.

"He longs to also Baptize you with His Holy Spirit, fire, and love, to come in and reign within you, and to let you enter into Him and into the Kingdom of Heaven at hand.  In so doing, He will so change your whole being that you will desire above all else to please Him and to abide in Him and the Kingdom of God.

"If you do this in sincerity, He is sure to hear and answer.  He will answer in such a glorious and unmistakable way that you will be brought to your face in wonder and thanksgiving.  When you are ready to ask and receive, He is ready to answer.

"It is not the questioning mind, but the unyielding will that causes unbelief and keeps people out of the Kingdom of God.  The one who sincerely asks is sure to be answered.  The one who honestly questions is sure to have his difficulties removed.  Nothing but your unwillingness to ask and to follow keeps you from the revelation of Jesus Christ and out of the Kingdom of God."
