A fine discussion on both threads! It is so good to see humble followers of the Master striving daily to take the Holy Spirit for their guide and do as Jesus taught! In the Book of Mormon, the prophet Nephi spoke briefly with the Holy Spirit as a man speaks with anotherDoing you missionary work ?

Thank you for the ping to your post! I believe all of us who love God and are Christian ought to follow Paul's example at Athens (Acts 17) when obeying the Great Commission whether ministering to those who believe nothing or like Apollos, believed in part or in error (Acts 18).
At Athens, Paul addressed the Greeks in their own terms, understanding what they believed and reasoning with them.
And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all [men], apt to teach, patient, In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And [that] they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will. - 2 Timothy 2:24-26
