Published on May 14, 2016

If you believe in Jesus, then you are "hosting a Mystery"--the invisible Holy Spirit of God, who now lives with you on the inside. What on earth is He doing there? A lot of good things as it turns out...

PRESENTATION OUTLINE

Who Is the Holy Spirit? Pt1

(And what is He doing IN me?)

First of all, Holy Spirit isn't a dove

It's a Biblical symbol for imaging Him

Holy Spirit is God:
no one has seen Him

A few have seen the Father (Daniel, John)

Vast multitudes have seen Jesus

The Spirit has only been seen by symbol

As tongues of fire

As a mighty wind

As a peaceful dove

If you are a Christian, that "dove" is in you

What's He doing there?

Let me count (some of) the ways...

1. Inner Witness

  • Holy Spirit confirms the saving knowledge of who Jesus is
  • He never lets us forget Jesus is Savior & Lord

One more way: perhaps the best
of all

Holy Spirit helps us to trust and surrender from deep inside

In this way we enter as children into the Kingdom of God

Life becomes a river of peace and joy in the Holy Spirit

Just as Jesus said it would!
