THE PRIMARY MARK OF A FOLLOWER OF JESUS? The Holy Spirit Living in Them

You, however, are not controlled by the sinful nature but are in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. ROMANS 8:9 TNIV

What does this mean? What is the Spirit’s purpose? The Spirit’s work is to cleanse us and make us the dwelling place of God!

11 But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. … 19 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies. 1 CORINTHIANS 6:11, TNIV also ROMANS 12:1-2

What does this mean? What is the Spirit’s purpose? The Spirit’s work is to cleanse us and make us the dwelling place of God! The Spirit’s primary work is to conform us to Jesus!

And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate/reflect the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever–increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. 2 CORINTHIANS 3:18 TNIV

My dear children, for whom I am again in the pains of childbirth until Christ is formed in you … the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self–control. GALATIANS 4:19 & 5: TNIV

Building a Strategy Confess Christ & be baptized Acts 4:12; 2:38-39 Ask God to give you His Spirit Luke 11:13 Pray for others to be strengthened Ephesians 3:16 Focus on Jesus to be like Him 2 Corinthians 3:17-18
