None of us are fully clean nor was Paul in the following verse

Romans 7:23 (KJV) But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members

Jesus and Adam (for a limited time) were the only two men who ever walked on earth without the law of sin living within them. As the word "law" is being used here indicates a power AKA a principality that by definition is a life giving force albeit one already sentenced to death.

This "law of sin" lives in every person ever born including Christians who have been baptized with the Holy Spirit because they still have this unclean "spirit and soul" of man (Adam & Eve) living within them.

In a time appointed there will be some who will be completely cleansed (perfected) that is a part of the Tabernacles Blessing (latter rain) the same as the gift of salvation that is the Holy Spirit upon an obedient believer is/was a blessing of Pentecost.

To qualify for a Tabernacles blessing one must first gain the truth of the seven foundational doctrines of Christ in us as they are listed in Heb.6:1-2 that will allow them to become "wise virgins" who may qualify for the wedding unlike all of the foolish virgins who are turned away that all Pentecost blessing recipients automatically became upon receiving the Holy Spirit who do not yet qualify.

Hi,



Eph 5:1 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;
Eph 5:2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.


Eph 5:3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
Eph 5:4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
Eph 5:5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
Eph 5:6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.

Eph 5:7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
Eph 5:8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
Eph 5:9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
Eph 5:10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
Eph 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
Eph 5:12 For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.
Eph 5:13 But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
Eph 5:14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
Eph 5:15 See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,
Eph 5:16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.


Eph 5:17 Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.
Eph 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;
Eph 5:19 Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
Eph 5:20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

I doubt that the proponents of the doctrine of MAD take any notice of these verses.

All of the early church was filled with the Holy spirit upon their conversion from the kingdom of darkness to the Kingdom of Gods Son.

However as the MADists do not obey these verses, and do not believe in most anything else the early church experienced is for them,

then why is it that these verses are preached by Paul and included in instructions to Christ's Church which is His Body, which is His Bride?

Act 13:52 And the disciples were filled with joy, and with the Holy Ghost.

Act 19:4 Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
Act 19:5 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Act 19:6 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.
