Ac19

Are we familiar with the work of the Holy Spirit? There is still too little talk about the Holy Spirit! There is no life apart from His indwelling in us. 

Paul asked, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" The Ephesian's response was, "No. We haven't even heard there is a Holy Spirit." With that Paul laid his hands on them and they received the Holy Spirit.

There is much confusion today about the work and ministry of the Holy Spirit. Jesus gave us clear instruction in the gospel of John chapters 14-16. The Holy Spirit is the One who convicts us of sin, righteousness and judgement. The Holy Spirit is the One who lives inside of us! He is the One who will guide us in every situation in life through the scriptures.

Without the Holy Spirit there is no rebirth. Jesus said, "That which is born of the flesh is flesh, but that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I say to you, you must be born again." (John 3)

Thank you Jesus for giving us the Holy Spirit.
