The Father in Us?  

Q: In the About Us segment, under Know This Then and the 5th sentence down you write "-- the Holy Spirit is The Father, He is Spirit and He is Holy above all." I was thinking that YaHshua's Spirit was in us. I am thinking now that I was wrong ... Please let me know where it says that The Father is in us.

A:  It is with great joy that I read your questions as they mean a lot to me and are very encourage -- and the reason I started Website so many years ago -- to let others know that they are not alone, that yes, the world can be totally wrong.

We recognized that most of, well, all of Christianity is in some form of the Baptism of John, the Baptism of Repentance and not in His Baptism.   
 
Now, to answer your question, Where do we find scripture that says it is the Father in us? Let us start with -- However, you are not wrong about the Spirit of YaHshua being in us, but so is the Father -- as you will see.   
 

Col 1:27  To them God (The Father) has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory
   

(Rom 8:11)  But if the Spirit of Him who raised up YaHshua from the dead dwells in you, He who raised up the messiah YaHshua from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.
   

(1Co 3:16)  Don't you know that you are a temple of the FATHER, and that the FATHER's Spirit lives in you?
   

(1Co 6:19)  Or don't you know that your body is a Temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have from the FATHER? You are not your own.

(Eph 4:6)  One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
   

(Php 2:13)  For it is God (the Father) which works in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure.

(2Ti 1:14)  That good thing which was committed to you, guard through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.
     
We see from the word that the Father is with us, in us as is His Son, for we cannot have the one witout the other. Again, this takes a revealing from the Son, our Savior, YaHshua.

(Mat 11:27)  All things are delivered unto Me of my Father: and no man knows the Son, but the Father; neither knows any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal Him.
     

(Eph 3:17)  That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,

(John 14:23)  YaHshua answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with Him.

(Col 1:27)  To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
   

Not forgetting that it is the Father, the One whom YaHshua came to reveal, that is the Source of it all, that the unity found in the shared Spirit of life eternal is shared by the choice of the Father and by His determination that the Son should be ruler over everything, His Son whom was first known as the Word and later as YaHWeH then as YaHshua and it is through and by YaHshua, YaHWeH in the flesh that the Father is then Revealed, the One who raised YaHshua from the grave to return to His Previous Glory.  

So, where does this leave the rest of Christianity, if they only have the Son?  Truthfully, they do not have the Son, they even call on a name that is not His.  From what I can tell, they are of the Baptism of John, which is a Baptism of Repentance, and that is a good thing.  Lives are changed for the better, but they lack the Baptism in the true Spirit, the Holy Spirit of the Father and the Son.   There is an account where the Apostle Paul enclounters a meeting with 12 Disciples of John, all baptized by John to Repentance, and when asked which baptism they were -- as Paul is in a sarcastic moment -- the responded that of John, not one of the Christians teachers but of John the Baptist.  Paul immediately tells them about the better Baptism and about YaHshua -- all 12 of these previously baptized men went with Paul to the waters and were then Baptized into the Baptism of YaHshua, into His Name and the Father's Name.  Acts 19:3-7, Luke 3:3,

In Acts 18:24-25 we find out that a great teacher in the Word can be only partly right.  Apollos was a righteous teacher but was not in the Baptism, the ONE Baptism of YaHshua, he had only the Baptism of John, a Baptism of repentance.  IN other words, something was missing, just as it is in the Bible professing believers of today.
