One Thing The Spirit Does Apart From The Word

A lot of gospel preachers make the claim that everything the Holy Spirit is said to do in the scriptures, that the word of God is said to do the same thing, so their conclusion is the Holy Spirit only operates through the word today. But this is a false claim.

Romans 8:26-27 reads “Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.”

So the Holy Spirit makes intercession for us "with groanings which cannot be uttered." The word (the Bible) does NOT do that.
