Empowered by the Holy Spirit

Posted on Jun 1, 2017 in Desk of Chuck | Tags: , ,

 

The first Sunday in June, we will celebrate the advent of the Holy Spirit or Pentecost. The last commandment Jesus gave, before HIS ascension, was ‘do not leave Jerusalem till you receive power.’ That is, the third person of the God head. The Holy Spirit. Believers should never underestimate the importance of the Holy Spirit in their lives. The current task of the Holy Spirit is four fold. First – to convict the world. Second – to cleanse the believer through the blood of Jesus at the new birth. Third – to make real in believers lives the legal pronouncement of Righteousness that God has made. And finally, to empower the believer to assist in the sanctification process of others. Let us rejoice and give thanks for the working of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
 
Celebrate!
