The Holy Spirit is the most misunderstood person of the Trinity.
Who is He, and how does He operate in the heart of a Christian?
It’s important to examine what it means to live a Spirit-filled life. Listen as Susie talks with Pastor Jim Cymbala of The Brooklyn Tabernacle about his book, . Jesus said it was “better” for His followers that He was going away, because then the Holy Spirit would come and dwell within us. What does it mean to have Him dwelling within us? How can we know if we truly know Him?
Jim was inspired to write this book as he traveled around the world and watched the power of God in bringing people to Himself. Listen as Jim and Susie explore several dynamics of the Spirit-filled life:
• The identity and work of the Holy Spirit.
He is the third person of the Trinity, not an impersonal force. He is fully God, who helps us to pray when we lack words, who gives gifts according to His wisdom, and who increases our hatred for sin and our love for Jesus.
• How to approach the Holy Spirit.
In Jim’s words,
“If you emphasize the Word but not the Spirit, you dry up. If you emphasize the Spirit without the Word, you blow up. If you emphasize the Word and the Spirit, you grow up.”
He convicts us of sin and helps us mature in our faith day by day! Engage the Holy Spirit by reading the Bible and asking Him to show you truths and increase your love for Jesus.
• The connection between obedience and the Spirit-filled life.
• Why it’s important to pray for a revival within our churches.
