If you knew anything at all about the spirit world you would know that I was knowledgeable.
If you knew anything at all about photography, you would know what your photographs really are.

My mystical insight into some scripture should be a clue as well.
Actually, your lack of scriptural insight is quite noticeable.

My discernment of spirits has come to me through the Holy Spirit.
But why should we believe that when you can't even discern dust?

Do you know what the Holy Spirit looks like? Can you show me? He does not look like nor is He a dove.
The Bible says he does. You've been shown that. You're directly contradicting the Bible.

Do you honestly believe that the third person of the Holy Trinity is a dove?
Looks like a dove. That's what the Bible says.
ScottRP writes:
The Holy Spirit has no reason to lower Himself to being a dove.
He has no reason to lower himself to being an orb either.
ScottRP writes:
Also, if the Holy Spirit appeared as a dove, He would be seen masquerading as a lying deceiving devil.
The Bible says that the Holy Spirit appeared in the form of a dove. What part of that do you not understand?

Scripture actually says;
Mathew 3:16. When He had been baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened to Him, and He saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon Him.
We've been through this. Luke clarified:
quote:
Luke 3:21-22 When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as he was praying, heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.
"Like a dove" means "in bodily form like a dove". The Holy Spirit looked like a dove. The only one who's misinterpreting it is you.

That is not what the bible says. Descending like a dove. Not "looks like a dove".
I QUOTED it:
quote:
Luke 3:21-22 When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as he was praying, heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended on him IN BODILY FORM LIKE A DOVE. And a voice came from heaven: You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.
It definitely DOES say "looks like a dove". Stop denying reality.
ScottRP writes:
He is not lowering Himself. The orb is omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent. He is an absolute perfect spirit.
Why is appearing in the form of a dove any different? Why can't he be omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent in the form of a dove like it says? Why does he have to be in the shape of an orb like it DOESN'T say?
ScottRP writes:
You misinterpret scripture.
It isn't even a question of interpretation. You're flat-out denying what the scripture says.

What part of "bodily form" do you not understand? The "bodily form" of something is what it looks like. If he had descended in the bodily form of a camel, he would have looked like a camel.

The precise interpretation of that scripture with real photographs of the Holy Spirit is in message 1193.
You can't interpret away what the Bible actually says.

There's no real difference between spirits and fairies.

I would have said that spirits are more heavily taxed.

A fairy is a small imaginary being of human form that has magical powers, especially a female one.
A spirit is also an imaginary being that sometimes takes the form of a dove but not an orb. If you insist that it can have a face, we'll have to take your "expert" word for it. If anybody wonders about the gender, they'll have to invoke Rule 34 and google it.
