by this you will know that the spirit is of god because the whole spirit is in agreement with jesus christ that among flesh (mankind) has come out of god is.. i think it means not was but what is.
it means we can believe christ is among us to do the will of god through us.
BTW, you didn't answer my questions.
Were the writers of the new testament inspired by the Spirit? Were their words inspired by the Spirit?
Are any of our words inspired by the Spirit in the same way as the writers of the new (and old) testament were?
Peace

That scripture explains itself. Read the next verse.

Was Joseph Smith?
How about the WTB&TS?
Maybe Harold Camping?
I think I'll stick to the Inspired Word Of God thank you.
Proverbs 30:6 Do not add to his words, or he will rebuke you and prove you a liar.
Revelation 22:18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book.
Deuteronomy 12:32 See that you do all I command you; do not add to it or take away from it.

" I trust and have faith in HIM, dear one... and so put faith in HIS words to me. "
" My Lord has never said specifically..."
" But I promise that if I DO hear, I will certainly share it!"
WOW! I mean, WOW!
You have got to be kidding.

"4. Jeremiah 31:33, 34 and the prophecy there (in light of Psalm 1:2, and particularly as to where the law that is to be "read" would be written... and when... which I concede might require some explanation of at least Luke 22:20; 1 Corinthians 11:25; and Hebrews 8:7-13, if not others); and"
I think Jeremiah 31:34 answers that question
"No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, saying, 'Know the LORD,' because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest," declares the LORD. "For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more."
and take into consideration Galatians 5:14 "The entire law is summed up in a single command: "Love your neighbor as yourself.""
"the law that is to be read" Where do you get that the law "is to be read"? I see no need (I didn't say I see no blessing) for "reading".
What reading is needed for one to love his brother? Christians live by the Spirit, not by reading the law. The law is within them, made part of their nature by God.

Let go, let God...
I think we may both be saying the same thing. We just say it in very different ways.

How can a man, who knows that he is in God and has eternal life, not try (out of thankfulness) to do God's will?
Christians do the will of God because they are saved, not to be saved. So I'm not sure I understand your word "need".
I feel that I personlly need to do the will of God for many reasons but not in the same sense as "need" to keep God Law as if I were still under law.
Paul teaches that all things are permissable.
Christains as free from law and sin and guilt.
John writes in 1 John 5:13 "I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life."
Question, how long is "eternal life"?

Just read to the end of the book.
Paraphrasing....He who believes only believes because God loved him first.
4:13 13 This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit.
We didn't take his spirit, he has given it to us.
4:15 15 If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God.
But who on earth would do such a thing? Read what Paul says about natural (fallen) man.
Fallen man would never acknowledge that Jesus is the Son of God.
Peace
