HOLY SPIRIT
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the third person of the Trinity, Who convicts the world of sin, righteousness and judgment. He is the life of the believer, and He empowers the preaching and teaching of the gospel.
Terms explained:
Holy Spirit: The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity, equal with the Father and the Son (John 14:16; Matthew 28:19).
Convicts: Jesus Christ said that the Spirit would perform this ministry with respect to the world (John 16:7-11).
Life: The Holy Spirit is the agent of spiritual birth (John 3:5-8). The Spirit regenerates, indwells, seals, and baptizes into the Church body all believers (1 Corinthians 12:13; Titus 3:5; Ephesians1:13, 4:30; 1 Corinthians 6:19; Romans 8:9,11; 2 Corinthians 1:21-22). The believer's life is strengthened and guided by the Spirit (Ephesians 1:13, 3:16; John 16:13; Romans. 8:4,14,26-27). The believer is commanded to be filled or controlled by the Spirit, so that the characteristics of Christ-likeness will be evident in a powerful life (Ephesians 5:18; Galatians 5:16).
Empowers: The Holy Spirit enables the spreading of God's word in testimony, preaching and practical living (John 15:26-27). Spiritual obedience will give fruit to a spiritually powerful life of service for Christ (Ephesians 5:15-21; Galatians 5:22-25).
