The Holy Spirit: Pneumatology

  • The Holy Spirit is part of the Trinity and is God.
  • The Holy Spirit is a person with intellect, emotion, and will.
  • The Holy Spirit is referred to as "He" in the Bible, not "it."

The Work of the Holy Spirit

  • The Holy Spirit is active in conversion and the life of a believer.
  • The Holy Spirit's work is described using four words: birth, baptism, indwelling, and filling.
  • Birth: Being born of the Spirit makes us children of God.
  • Baptism: We are all baptized into one body by the Spirit, uniting us to Christ and the church.
  • Indwelling: The Holy Spirit lives within us and our bodies belong to Him.
  • Filling: Being filled with the Holy Spirit means being constantly controlled by Him.
  • We are always born of the Spirit and baptized once into the body of Christ.
  • The Holy Spirit indwells us and never leaves us.
  • We can choose to ignore the influence of the Holy Spirit but we should submit to Him and live in obedience.
  • Resisting the Holy Spirit can hinder His work in our lives through:
    • Quenching the Spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:19)
    • Grieving the Spirit (Ephesians 4:30)
  • Grieving the Holy Spirit can be done by engaging in behaviors like:
    • Lying (Ephesians 4:25)
    • Stealing (Ephesians 4:28)
    • Bitterness, anger, wrath, and clamor (Ephesians 4:31)
    • Malice (Ephesians 4:31)
    • Unforgiveness (Ephesians 4:32)
  • Christians should examine their hearts and seek to live in obedience to the Holy Spirit.
