Lesson#2 The Holy Spirit: God's presence in me

This Holy Spirit lesson explores the nature and function of the Holy Spirit, focusing on the biblical concept of the Spirit as God’s personal presence dwelling within followers of Jesus. The Bible identifies the Holy Spirit as the third person of the unified Trinity, emphasizing that He is a distinct divine person with a specific mission to reveal Christ and connect believers to the Father. It explains the spiritual transition where believers become the permanent temple of the Holy Spirit upon salvation, receiving the Spirit as a sealed promise and guarantee of their future inheritance. The primary function of the Spirit is to empower the believer, providing guidance, comfort, and actively transforming them into Christ's likeness by producing the fruit of the Spirit. The lesson also addresses the perpetual, unseen battle between the flesh and the Spirit within the believer, stressing that spiritual growth and victory are achieved by continually yielding to the Spirit's guidance rather than being led by subjective feelings or misconceptions.
