Who Is the Holy Spirit?

The Bible teaches that the Holy Spirit is equally God—the third Person of the Trinity—fully divine and actively working in the lives of those who believe in Jesus Christ.

The Holy Spirit Dwells in Every Believer

When you accept Jesus into your life by faith, the Spirit of God comes to live within you. You literally become the temple of God.

• Galatians 5:16 – “But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desires of the flesh.”

• Colossians 1:27 – “Christ in you, the hope of glory.”

The indwelling Holy Spirit is God’s personal presence, empowering you to follow Him.

What the Holy Spirit Does

The Holy Spirit is not a mysterious force or a ghostly figure from the movies. He is the living Spirit of God, sent to guide, teach, and strengthen you.

• Empowers us to live in victory over sin.

• Guides us into truth and obedience to God’s Word.

• Convicts us of wrong and leads us toward growth in Christ.

• Comforts us in times of struggle.

• Speaks to our hearts with spiritual nudges that align with Scripture.

How to Walk in the Spirit

Walking in the Spirit means listening to His promptings and obeying God’s Word daily. His guidance will always:

• Agree with the Bible.

• Be rooted in love.

• Encourage obedience and holiness.

The Holy Spirit’s role is not to frighten or confuse you, but to help you live a victorious, faithful life for Jesus Christ.
