20 "An evaluation of these texts shows that all involved empowerment for a physical activity or enablement for a specific activity." Leon J. Wood, The Holy Spirit in the Old Testament

21 "Yet His incoming was more of an inworking than an indwelling." Herbert Lockyer "Yet His incoming was more of an inworking than an indwelling." Herbert Lockyer Herbert Lockyer, All the Doctrines of the Bible

22 Spirit After Salvation xvi Confusion: All or Part at Salvation?

23 The Spirit indwelling is God's new work! xvi

24 Indwelling

25 The People Who Are Indwelt The Holy Spirit lives in Christians only and He does so in all Christians (1 Cor. 3:16; 6:19) xvi

26 The Holy Spirit indwells even the carnal Christian (1 Cor. 3:1, 3, 16). xvi II. A.

27 Indwelling of the Holy Spirit 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 19 Do you not know that your body is a temple 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 body. Sound like an individual body?

28 Even Unbelievers talk of the Body as a Temple

29 Indwelling of the Holy Spirit 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 19 Do you not know that your (pl.) body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you (pl.), whom you (pl.) have received from God? You (pl.) are not your (pl.) own; 20 you (pl.) were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your (pl.) body. Plural 7 times! xvi II. A.

30

31 1 Corinthians 6:19-20  Paul is addressing to the whole church  The temple ( .j) is a dwelling place for the Holy Spirit  Therefore, the entire church is indwelt! xvi II. A.

32 Corporate Indwelling xvi II. A.

33 Ephesians 2:19-22 xvi II. A.

34 The Holy Spirit is a gift (Rom. 5:5; John 7:37- 39; Acts 11:17; 2 Cor. 5:5; 1 Cor. 2:12) xvi II. B.

35 The absence of the Holy Spirit is evidence of an unsaved condition (Rom.8:9b; cf. Jude 19; 1 Cor. 2:14). Viewed Differently xvi II. C.

36 Indwelling of the Holy Spirit Romans 8:9 "You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ." xvi II. C.

37 Is there a possibility of the temporary nature of indwelling?

38 The Permanence of the Spirit's Indwelling xvi II. D.

39 John 14:15-17 xvi II. D.

40 John 14:15-17 xvi II. D.

41 Christ's Presence Promised (John 14:17-20)Christ's Presence Promised (John 14:17-20) Spirit Glorifies and Teaches about Christ (John 16:13-15)Spirit Glorifies and Teaches about Christ (John 16:13-15) In other words, Christ's presence with believers is by the universal indwelling of the Spirit xvi II. D.

42 Isn't obedience a condition for the indwelling (Acts 5:32)? "And we are witnesses of these things; and so is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey Him."

43 A believer's first act of obedience is to trust in the finished work of Christ. The obedience requirement for the indwelling (Acts 5:32) is the obedience of faith in Christ. xvi II. E.

44

45 The times when the Spirit was withdrawn due to sin (1 Sam. 16:14; Ps. 51:11) all occurred prior to Pentecost when He was given permanently (Acts 2; cf. John 14:16). xvi II. F.

46 Does not the delay of the Spirit to the Samaritans prove that it is subsequent to salvation (Acts 8:14-17)?

47 TextSpeakersAudience Related to Salvation Purpose 2:1-4Apostles+Unsaved Jews at Pentecost After salvation Validate for Jews the fulfillment of Joel 2 8:14-17 Samaritans Saved Jews doubting God's plan (Peter+) After salvation Validate for Jews God's acceptance of Samaritans 10:44-47 Gentiles (Cornelius+ others) Saved Jews doubting God's plan (Peter+) At salvation Validate for Jews God's acceptance of Gentiles 19:1-7OT believers in Messiah Jews needing gospel message confirmed At salvation Validate for Jews God's message through Paul (Toussaint, Bible Knowledge Commentary, 2:408, adapted) Spirit Reception in Acts xvi G

48 What is the relationship of the anointing of the Spirit to indwelling?

49 The Anointing of the Spirit " Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, 22 set his seal of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come" (2 Cor. 1:21 NIV) Xvi H

50 The Anointing of the Spirit " But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and all of you know the truth… 27 As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit—just as it has taught you, remain in him" (1 John 2:20, 27) Xvi H

51 Ryrie on the Anointing "The difference between the anointing and indwelling seems to lie in their distinct purposes. The indwelling brings the presence of God into the life of the believer. The anointing, as far as the believer is concerned, is that he might be taught (1 John 2:20, 27). Actually, this seems to be the only purpose specified in the believer's case. xvi H

52 Ryrie on the Anointing "However, if one may use the example of the anointing of Christ [Luke 4:18; Acts 4:27; 10:38; Heb. 1:9] and of Old Testament priests [Exod. 30:32-33; cf. kings 1 Sam. 10:1; Zech 4:14], then another purpose emerges—that of service. But…the full experience of the anointing depends on being filled with the Spirit" (Ryrie, The Holy Spirit, 73). xvi H

53 THE SEALING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT xvii

54 In ancient times a seal was usually made of melted wax on which a signature or sign of authority was stamped. Backgrounds xvii

55 A seal in ancient times meant: Authenticity: It established the integrity and genuineness of a document or objectAuthenticity: It established the integrity and genuineness of a document or object Ownership: It established who owned an itemOwnership: It established who owned an item Authority: It established who had the right to handle the objectAuthority: It established who had the right to handle the object xvii

56 God seals every believer and gives the earnest or pledge of the Spirit. God seals every believer and gives the earnest or pledge of the Spirit. The Agent & the Extent "…set His seal of ownership on us, and put His Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is come" (NIV) 2 Cor. 1:22 xvii A & C

60 We are not sealed "by the Spirit" but "with the Spirit" We are not sealed "by the Spirit" but "with the Spirit" The Sphere "And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit." Eph. 1:13b Xvii B

61 Our sealing with the Spirit will last until our day of redemption. Our sealing with the Spirit will last until our day of redemption. The Extent of the Sealing "And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption." Eph. 4:30 Xvii C3

62 We were sealed with the Spirit when we believed. We were sealed with the Spirit when we believed. The Time of Sealing "And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit." Eph. 1:13a xvii D

63 The Spirit Guarantees Full Salvation Who also sealed us and gave us the Spirit in our hearts as a pledge (2 Cor. 1:22 NASB )Who also sealed us and gave us the Spirit in our hearts as a pledge (2 Cor. 1:22 NASB ) Now He who prepared us for this very purpose is God, who gave to us the Spirit as a pledge (2 Cor. 5:5 NASB )Now He who prepared us for this very purpose is God, who gave to us the Spirit as a pledge (2 Cor. 5:5 NASB ) xvii E1

65 The Intent of the Sealing 1.Security: We will stay sealed until the day of redemption 2.Ownership: We are possessed by God 3.Assurance: We have God's promise of salvation xvii E

66 In Summary: Every believer and only believers are sealed. God is the agent of the sealing. The Spirit is the seal. Each believer was sealed the moment he received Christ as Savior. Sealing lasts until the day of our redemption.

67 Sealing is a promise and guarantee of eternal security Secure!

68 In Christ Alone Stuart Townend and Keith Getty

69 In Christ alone my hope is found; He is my light, my strength, my song; This cornerstone, this solid ground, Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.

70 What heights of love, what depths of peace, When fears are stilled, when strivings cease! My comforter, my all in all, Here in the love of Christ I stand.

71 In Christ alone, Who took on flesh, Fullness of God in helpless babe! This gift of love and righteousness, Scorned by the ones He came to save.

72 Till on that cross as Jesus died, The wrath of God was satisfied; For every sin on Him was laid, Here in the death of Christ I live.

73 There in the ground His body lay, Light of the world by darkness slain; Then bursting forth in glorious day, Up from the grave He rose again!

74 And as He stands in victory, Sin's curse has lost its grip on me; For I am His and He is mine, Bought with the precious blood of Christ.

75 No guilt in life, no fear in death This is the pow'r of Christ in me; From life's first cry to final breath, Jesus commands my destiny.

76 No pow'r of hell, no scheme of man, Can ever pluck me from His hand; Till He returns or calls me home Here in the pow'r of Christ I'll stand.

77 Distinguishing Terms Eternal SecurityAssurance of Salvation Basic Meaning Being saved from the penalty of sin forever (once saved, always saved) Knowing that we are saved from the penalty of sin forever Definition"The work of God which guarantees that the gift of salvation, once received, is forever and cannot be lost" (Ryrie, Basic Theology, 328) "The realization of the truth of eternal security or perseverance" (Ryrie, Basic Theology, 328) xvii

106 The Solid Rock 1/8 My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness; I dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus' name. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, all other ground is sinking sand!

107 The Solid Rock 2/8 When darkness seems to hide His face, I rest on His unchanging grace. In every high and stormy gale, My anchor holds within the veil. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, all other ground is sinking sand!

108 The Solid Rock 3/8 His oath, His covenant, His blood support me in the whelming flood. When all around my soul gives way, He then is all my hope and stay. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, all other ground is sinking sand!

109 The Solid Rock 4/8 When He shall come with trumpet sound, O may I then in Him be found; Dressed in His righteousness alone, Faultless to stand before the throne. On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, all other ground is sinking sand!
