  12. The Holy Spirit “The Royal Seal”

  13. The Holy Spirit When you heard the word of truththe gospel of your salvation, and believed in him (Jesus) You were “sealed” with the promised “Holy Spirit”who is- the guarantee of our inheritance Ephesians 1:13-14ESV

  14. The Holy Spirit • His seal is eternal and implies “ownership” and “authority”. • When we trust in Jesus for our Salvation God sends His Holy Spirit to indwell us and aid us in our efforts to further “His Kingdom” and bring glory to “God”. • It is this indwelling power that confirms that we “belong to Him” and that we truly have pasted from death to life.

  15. The Holy Spirit And as we live in God, (Walk in the Spirit) our love grows more perfect. So we will not be afraid on the day of judgment, but we can face him with confidence because we live like Jesus here in this world. 1 John 4:17

  16. The Holy Spirit “Sanctification”

  17. The Holy Spirit • The Holy Spirit is continuing the work which began on the cross, now being freed from the destructive power of sin and Gods judgment, • He continually draws us into a deeper relationship with God and transforms us from within. This work is referred to as "Sanctification”.

  18. The Holy Spirit Previously, you let yourselves be slaves to impurity and lawlessness, which led ever deeper into sin. Now you must give yourselves to be slaves to righteous living so that you will- “become holy”(Sanctification)Romans 6:19-23

  19. The Holy Spirit Our Salvation is secure because it is based not on “our efforts” but by the finished work of His “Shed Blood” on the cross. There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. Romans 8:1 NKJV

Galatians 5:16-26
