questions

below r questions that Frances Chan has asked within the intro and first chapter of his book. these r the questions that stood out to me. only the questions r in this post. i will be taking these questions and searching the scriptures for my own answers. but these r good for all of us to ask ourselves.
is it possible to get enough or even too much of God?
is there a point when a person can be satisfied with the amount of intimacy, knowledge, and power of God he or she experiences?
doesn't every encounter with God only cause us to thirst for Him more?
if we were to start with Scripture and allow it to dictate our actions, how would we live?
have i ever sat down with the Bible and sought after its self-evident truth? or have i passively ingested what i heard from other people?
can u really tell the difference between a believer and nonbeliever if u didn't recognize their faces from church? would u know from their actions they r followers of Jesus? y does this happen? how is it even possible?
can u blame nonbelievers for not wanting to know Jesus when our lives r just like theirs?
have u ever thought about the significance of having "another" Counselor who is "just like" Christ?
yet y do we assume that the physical Jesus would be any better than the literal presence of Holy Spirit?
what do we do with the fact that Jesus says it is better for His followers to have the Holy Spirit? do we believe Him? if so, do our lives reflect that belief?
when was the last time i undeniably saw the Spirit at work n or around me?
who is the most Spirit-filled person u know?
these r questions that i want to answer in my journey to having a more intimate relationship with Holy Spirit. i'm sure there will be more questions forthcoming and the group may very well come to an end b4 i am finished searching these out. with God's help and guidance, i will.

what about u? will u search out even one of these questions?
