HOLY SPIRIT 5: GOD
(Message by Tanny Keng)
1. Holy Spirit
a) Who is the Holy Spirit or what is the Holy Spirit? Is it a force, an energy, a power, or is He a person? We can find out by reading the Bible.

2. Holy Spirit is God
a) God the Holy Spirit brings godly repentance and brings about an awareness of when we are not doing the right thing. He will begin to deal with the sins in our life and help us overcome them. We are not the ones necessarily that conquer sin; God the Holy Spirit is the power that dwells in us to help us do this.
b) We can not possibly overcome sin by human effort. This doesn’t mean that the Holy Spirit stops all the urges nor will He stop our returning to sin, but the Holy Spirit prompts and urges the believer to not engage in such behavior as well as other ungodly acts. God the Holy Spirit enables us to do good works – not to be saved – but because we are saved.
c) The Holy Spirit also points to and always seeks to glorify Jesus Christ. So too should we. In this way, we can join in purpose with God the Holy Spirit to glorify Jesus Christ. The next time you think of the Holy Spirit, think of Him as God Himself. For the Holy Spirit is God, was God, and will forever be God. Jesus is also called Immanuel (God with us); God the Holy Spirit is God in us; if we are Christians. That is Who the Holy Spirit is.
