In Titus 2, Paul challenges believers to live out their faith in a distinctive way to the glory of God. But how is all of this possible? Paul's answer is the grace of God, which trains us in godly living as we remember what Christ has done for us and look forward to his appearing.

Men love darkness rather than light; we need the Holy Spirit to regenerate us and reveal to us the truth of God’s word. Only the Spirit can reveal the depth of our sin and empower us to confess our sin. Only the Spirit can reveal Jesus as the remedy for our sin, and only the spirit can impart desires and longings for us to live in righteousness.

The nature of spiritual gifts are often misunderstood, but the Bible provides some clear direction on the purpose and bestowal of these gifts that are given to build up the church. Rather than being something that we can pick and choose for ourselves, they are truly given as gifts from God.

The ministry of the Holy Spirit is in total unity with the ministry of the Holy Spirit. The two great gifts, which Christ gives to His people, deal with the removal of sin and the bestowing of or the baptizing with the Holy Spirit. The baptism of the Spirit is an unifying factor of all believers immediately at their conversion. To use the terminology 'baptism by the Spirit' as a post-conversion experience is not biblical theology, it actually leads to chaos and divisions. To live a Spirit-filled life is normal for the christian, it's obligatory not optional.

Between when we were born again and when we will see Jesus, we are to be steadfast and full of the Spirit. We learn that 'fullness' is metaphorical, therefore to be fulled with the Spirit, implies that the Spirit is the dominant influence and characteristic of our behavior. We learn the difference between habitual fullness and occasional fullness for special reasons in regard to the Holy Spirit. We also learn thatfullness of the Spirit is a Christian privilege and a Christian command.

The doctrine of the Holy Spirit, especially regarding spiritual gifts, has caused fear, confusion and revealed ignorance. The Corinthians were actually in a situation where people were claiming divine inspiration, but actually cursing Jesus Christ and Paul tells the Christians not to be ignorant. We learn that spiritual gifts are unearned and undeserved and given to every believer in order to better the church.We also learn that the spritual gifts do not reveal the spiritual health of the possesser.

God's will is for each of us to be holy. The Holy Spirit provides direction so we may be victorious over the sin in our lives. The guidance of the Holy Spirit requires action on our part, but we must be on guard against driving every prompting or feeling we have as coming from the Holy Spirit. Circumstances, counsel and knowledge of the scriptures play a vital part in understanding when the Holy Spirit is leading us, and when our own desires are misguiding us.

What do the words Sanctification and Justification mean? Having been born again by the Holy Spirit and being set apart by God for His own possession does not mean we have become sinless, nor should we willingly continue to sin because we are forgiven. The work Christ gives us through Sanctification cannot be separate from Justification. Join us as we turn to the God’s Word for explanation of what Sanctification and Justification truly mean, and examine common misunderstandings.

What is the relationship of the Holy Spirit to the Christian? "The Holy Spirit is the gift of the Father and the Son to the believer to live within him, giving him spiritual life, assuring him of sonship, and communicating to him the benefits of the gospel." This quote, by Derek Prime, serves as the outline for this helpful, encouraging sermon.

Jesus told His disciples that after He departed another would come - the Holy Spirit, also known as the Wonderful Counselor. Providing instruction to bow to scripture's authority and not man's, reveals that the Holy Spirit is the sole source in converting the non-believer. Being theologically accurate is of no assistance if the Holy Spirit does not live inside us. By revealing the hidden truths to each of us, the Holy Spirit teaches trust and love in Jesus Christ.
