John the Baptist but only three days after the public testimony by John the Baptist concerning Jesus' divinity. The Holy Spirit guides me to write that John the Baptist was compelled by HIM not to make the public testimony until **after** Jesus resisted satan's temptations **after** fasting for 40 days and nights in the desert. Moreover, the Holy Spirit led John to leave out of his public testimony his role in baptizing Jesus with water and HIS temptation by satan in the desert because these detracted from the message that Jesus is the divine Son of GOD. > So by all accounts this would have been more then 40 days Correct. > later... at least *43* :-) > Maybe some translating error along No. The error is one of misinterpretation on your part which > the way crept in.... :-( invariably happens when folks are trying to understand the Bible without the counsel of the Holy Spirit. > Speaking about the Holy Spirit.....

Being filled with the Holy Spirit does not mean we are given omniscent minds but discerning hearts so that we may be guided by HIM and not stray from HIS infinite will. Through the Holy Spirit, we know what HE deems we need to know and not what we think we need to know. > <bigger grin> It is my hope that your grinning is now arising from a discerning heart rather than from a wicked mind. > >> > Jesus' mother was there.
