======================================================================== WRITING, PRINTING, SPEAKING by George Fox ======================================================================== Summary: The sermon emphasizes the importance of being led by the Spirit and acting in obedience to God's power and life, in order to avoid the wilderness of hasty or disobedient action. Topics: "Holy Spirit", "Obedience To God" Scripture References: John 4:14, John 6:35, Galatians 5:25, 1 Thessalonians 5:19, 1 Peter 4:11 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DESCRIPTION ------------------------------------------------------------------------ George Fox emphasizes the importance of not hindering the Spirit's movements and urges the congregation to only speak, write, or act as they are led by the Lord God, as this is effective in reaching others. He encourages the listeners to feed on spiritual sustenance that comes from above, symbolized by knowing Jesus as the Bread of Life and the source of eternal satisfaction. Fox highlights the need to continue in obedience to the Spirit's promptings, as it leads to a life above worldly concerns and brings one closer to God's purpose and plan. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CONTENT ------------------------------------------------------------------------ AND none quench the Spirit's Movings in the least Degree, nor none go beyond. And feed not upon that which Dies of it self, but on that which cometh from above: Know the Son of Man's Flesh, which is your Bread, and his Blood, which is your Drink: which who eats and drinks of, hungers no more, nor thirsts no more, but hath the Endless Life. Nor none Write, Print nor Speak (for God) but as ye are moved of the Lord God; for that reacheth to that of God in others, and is Effectual. Nor none stop Writing or Speaking, when ye are moved with the Spirit of the Lord God, for the Power of the Lord God is to order, and to keep down that which would be hasty, or that which would not be Obedient, for that leads into the Wilderness (each way) which the Power, and Life, and Seed of God must be set a-top of, which keeps you over the World, and brings you to the Beginning. ======================================================================== Source: https://sermonindex.net/speakers/george-fox/writing-printing-speaking/ ========================================================================
