Humility is a very important attribute if you want to learn and feel the spirit. We had two investigators recently that know the Bible really well. They aren’t active in their church but have a great knowledge of the gospel. When we taught them, they would talk forever and try to teach us. Neither of them got an answer from the Holy Ghost. Neither will be baptized.
We have another investigator that we are currently teaching that knows he doesn’t know everything and listens to what we have to say. We only recently started teaching him and he is already feeling that it’s true because he’s willing to be taught.
We always need to be humble to receive direction from the Spirit and it’s much easier if we humble ourselves than to wait for the Lord to do it for us.
