Holy Spirit change in Acts period!
Question: How can Christians apply Mark 16:18 to their lives?
This comment from our Lord was prior to Acts 28:25–28; when the Gifts of the Spirit were reduced, and in some cases removed; as is seen in Paul’s inability to heal Trophimus!
The reason for that reduction, was the rejection by Israel of Christ Jesus as their Messiah!
Also, the Jews were made “Lo-Ammi”; a condition which will remain with them until the events of Zech.12:10!
From that point onwards, the Gentiles became the main object of the Gospel Evangelisation worldwide; and will remain so until the Numbers of the Lord’s Body are “made up” (Romans 11:25–27)!
As Joel Prophesied, the power of the Holy Spirit will be poured out to at least the same extent as the early Acts period (Joel 2:28–32).
