LDS: Holy Spirit’s Origin is Speculative and Fruitless

 November 19 – LDS: Holy Spirit’s Origin is Speculative, and Fruitless. Haggai 2:6-9 “For thus saith the LORD of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land; 7 And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the LORD of hosts. 8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts. 9 The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the LORD of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the LORD of hosts.”

Luke 2:27-32 “And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law, 28 Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said, 29 Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word: 30 For mine eyes have seen thy salvation, 31 Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people; 32 A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.”

He would visit the second Temple… and God did that by His Spirit, followed by His Son, Jesus.

Make note of this wonderful truth, and tell a Mormon, won’t you? This is just one of the 333 fulfilled prophecies in the Bible. To say it’s comforting would be an understatement!

If the HS worked then, as He does now, why does the Church not believe it?

Mormon Doctrine p. 359 “Because he is a Spirit Personage, he has power—In this dispensation, at least, nothing has been revealed as to his origin or destiny; expressions on these matters are both speculative and fruitless.” Bruce McConkie
