THE SPIRIT IN THE BORN AGAIN BELIEVER!
1. HE IS GOD DWELLING IN US:
John 14:16-17 - (Jesus said to His disciples) I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter, that He may abide with you forever; even the Spirit of truth; Whom the world cannot receive, because it sees Him not, neither knows Him: but you know Him; for He dwells with you, and shall be in you.
Acts 5:3-4 - Peter said, Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land? While it remained, was it not your own? And after it was sold, was it not in your own power? Why have you conceived this thing in your heart? You have not lied unto men, but unto God.
1 John 5:4-7 - For whosoever is born of God overcomes the world: and this is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith (we believe the Spirit of truth). Who is he that overcomes the world, but he that believes that Jesus is the Son of God? This is He that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit Who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth. For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word (Jesus), and the Holy Ghost (Holy Spirit): and these three are one.
2. HE IS GOD, SEALING US AS HIS OWN:
Ephesians 1:12-13 - That we should be to the praise of His glory, who first trusted in Christ. In Whom you also trusted, after that you heard the Word of truth, the Gospel of your salvation: in Whom also after that you believed, you were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise....
Ephesians 4:30 - And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, by Whom you are sealed unto the day of redemption.
3. HE IS GOD DIRECTING US FROM WITHIN:
Luke 12:11-12 - And when they bring you unto the synagogues, and unto magistrates, and powers, take no thought how or what thing you shall answer, or what you shall say: for the Holy Ghost shall teach you in the same hour what you ought to say.
John 16:13 - Howbeit when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will show you things to come.
Romans 8:11-14 - If the Spirit of Him Who raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, He that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by His Spirit that dwells in you. Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if you live after the flesh, you shall die: but if you through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, you shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons (children) of God.
Philippians 2:12-13 - Wherefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out (live out; experience) your own salvation with fear and trembling. For it is God Who works in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure.
JUST AS SALVATION IS A FREE GIFT
SO THAT NO MAN CAN BOAST,
THE LIFE OF A BELIEVER IS THE
OUT-WORKING OF THE SPIRIT,
THAT ALL GLORY BE GOD'S ALONE!
