the "truth"

Tuesday January 10th, Acts 19: Paul traveled through the interior provinces. Finally, he came to Ephesus, where he found several believers. 2"Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" he asked them. "No," they replied, "we don't know what you mean. We haven't even heard that there is a Holy Spirit." OK, they need to go back and take confirmation all over again. What is interesting is that their belief is not questioned. For Paul that was what was important, the rest was just housekeeping. Perhaps we could benefit from such an open approach when talking about other believers. There is this unholy tendency to think that we somehow have the "truth" and that others are wrong. In the kingdom there are many rooms, maybe we need to focus more on faith and take care of what we feel are important details later. I wonder if God was as concerned about these believers as Paul was?
