- Scripture gives many titles to the Spirit of God. Yet there is one title that we often pass over simply because of its familiarity: the Holy Spirit. This title reminds us that the Lord sends His Spirit to dwell in His people so that we will grow in holiness. In this message, Sinclair Ferguson considers the role of the Holy Spirit in our sanctification.

i prayed to the Lord asking for a better ability to walk in the Spirit. I believe He answered with this video!! PRAISE BE TO JESUS!!!!
I love this ministry & RC sproul and all who speak in it, I support it by buying books, I have my church but this Ligonier is ❤really CLEAN TRUE DOCTRINE. Thank you Jesus for this ministry
I have myself returned to old sin, not in a willing and wanting manner, but out of old habitual nature. Since being saved I experienced the joy and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit… God’s presence and confidence in being a child of God. Over the years I have not paid as close attention to being in situations where my mind has roamed. I’ve always tried to take notice and pray in repentance that His mercies are new each day.
About 2 years ago now while being sick, I felt a sense of myself disappearing, like a vapor… my joy in all things slowly fading away. All of the joy God has given to me in everything. I woke up one morning and felt that the Spirit had departed from me. It is the single most absolute worst and terrifying feeling you can experience as a Christian. Feeling that you are no longer included in the kingdom. Living in moments, according to the flesh…That I have finally out sinned the Grace of Jesus. I want to live in a way of obvious truth and obedience to and for my Lord and Savior Jesus. I want to live in a way that pleases the heart of God. And I surly do not want to Grieve the Holy Spirit. But I ‘feel’ in my soul that I have. My life ‘feels’ like Saul… or David’s lamenting in Psalm 51.
The new covenant in Jesus says a lot of foundational truth concerning my relationship with Him. I DO trust in Him, with all of my heart, all of my mind, and all of my strength…. And because of this Jesus says I will never die.
I am currently ebbing and flowing in confidence that I have been cut off. I’m currently experiencing terrible bouts of uncontrollable thoughts that consume me. I pray that it’s God chastising me… spiritual warfare. I can only hope for that.
I’m spiritually saddened and ashamed beyond depths of my own ability to express.
I was baptized at Parkside church in 2011. Although I live close to two hours away, I’ve been a student of Alistair prior to my baptism all the way until this very day. I wish I could speak to him. Although the Bible is the clear authority…. Not man.
I’m thankful for teachers like Alistair and his brother Sinclair. Teaching with clarity.
God knows me. He has known me. He called me. He saved me through His Son Jesus. He has given to me my whole life and gives. Anything I would do to ‘try’ to live a Holy life is NEVER for merit… it is my Love for my savior because He first loved me.
I bless and thank the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Please keep me kept. Don’t let me go.
I pray in the name of Jesus Christ.
Amen amen amen.
How are you today? I hope the Lord has worked in you and filled with His peace
@@Psalm13924 - i pray blessings to you for your kind considerate inquiry! I ebb and flow weekly in my spiritual joy. Some days seem to be better than others. I try and soak myself in the Word. I have days of confidence and then other times scripture comes up and it convicts me. I sometimes feel safe and other times that I’m awaiting sentencing. It is not my Faith in Jesus that lacks… but my shame and disappointment that cloaks me in how I have deviated from course in times of my pilgrimage. I know we have not yet been made perfect. That although sin no longer reigns it remains. I do trust in Jesus as my savior as I proclaimed in 2010- that will never change. I will always cry out to God the trinity, in Grace and Mercy to keep me. Only God the trinity can give to me peace. I will wait on Lord. I have been brought low and will hold fast.
Thank you for asking. My sister in Christ!
Bless you.
No matter how terribly you have sinned you know that there is nowhere else to go but to our God through His Son Jesus our Savior. You have been given all things to turn from whatever sins you have committed, keep repenting and seeking the Lord. ❤

THE SIN THAT LEADS TO DEATH: LEVITICUS 20:13, ROMANS 1:26-28, LEVITICUS 18:22.
DELIBERATE SIN LEADS TO DEATH, FOR HOW CAN WE REPENT OF AN ONGOING LIE WHERE WE REPENT JUST TO DELIBERATELY SIN AGAIN, BECOMING LIARS IN GOD’S EYES (HEBREWS 10:26). ON THE OTHER HAND, IF WE SAY WE HAVE NO SIN, WE DECEIVE OURSELVES, AND NO TRUTH IS IN US (1 JOHN 1:8). HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? WELL EVERY SINGLE PERSON SINS, BUT TRUE BELIEVERS IN GOD UNWITTINGLY SIN, WHICH DOESN’T INVOLVE REJECTION OF GOD AND HIS WAY SALVATION. IN THIS WAY, REPENTANCE IS TRUE AND WE ARE NOT LIARS BEFORE GOD. THOSE WHO GO ON TO DELIBERATELY SIN HAVE NO FORGIVENESS, BUT THOSE WHO UNWITTINGLY SIN HE WILL IN NO WISE CAST OUT (JOHN 6:37). THOSE WHO SHUN SIN, HE HONORS.
Jesus came to glorify the Father
People talk about Jesus’ divinity without ever acknowledging the one who gave him his divinity and authority (Matthew 28:18-19). God is Jesus’ Father, and Jesus is God’s only begotten Son. They are not the same entity, but they are always in agreement because Jesus does and says everything that his Father tells him.
Jesus was born without an earthly father. He was sent here to tell us about the will of his heavenly Father, not himself. Jesus is the manifestation of God’s power and spirit in the flesh, but he is not God himself. The Father works in and through Jesus. If you truly cherish Jesus, then you will glorify the Father just as Jesus glorifies Him. We must glorify the Almighty Father, who gave Jesus life (John 5:26), the entire revelation (Revelation 1:1), and all power in heaven and on earth. Without the Father, there is no Son; and without Jesus, there is no means of salvation for us.
“For GOD so loved the world, that HE gave HIS only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him (Jesus) should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16).
Jesus IS the SON OF GOD.
The whole Bible testifies of this . He is part of the triune God. Father Son and Holy Spirit. Jesus himself said I and the Father are one. He who has seen me has also seen the Father. This is only one verse of countless verses in the old and new testament about Jesus Christ. If he wasn't God he wouldn't be perfect and wouldn't have been able to save us from our sins. Praying for you
.who said Jesus is not God. Praying that the Holy Spirit will illuminate your heart.
@@janvandestreek3366 And I pray that you receive true enlightenment from the Holy Spirit.
There is no 'triune God.' There is only ONE God, the Father (1 Corinthians 8:6). You cannot dispute scripture.
Jesus said he and the Father are one, and tells us that WE are to become ONE even as THEY are ONE *(John 17:21-25).* It means to become one in agreement with the Father's will; it has absolutely nothing to do with being 'one triune God.'
No man has seen the Father, but when you see Jesus you see the Father's works through him. It is the FATHER who *doeth the works,* not Jesus (John 14:9-12).
Jesus is perfect because he is the image of God; he is the manifestation of God in the flesh - everything the Father shows him, he does (John 12:49-50). He never once waivered from his Father, who is his GOD (John 20:17). That is why he is perfect; because he only does the Father's will.
Repent, and God will forgive.
