The 5 Hidden Truths about the Holy Spirit:
1. It’s the Greatest Blessing
The best blessing God has given to us is genuine love spilled out and given openly, the endowment of the Holy Spirit. This is the reason there is just a single Baptism – we can just get the blessing one time and it is our own eternity. It is our decision to acknowledge and utilize the blessing.
2. The Holy Spirit has a job
Thus, it is the Holy Spirit that initiated God’s adoration into the world. We can battle without anyone else endeavoring to locate our own satisfaction, yet once we understand God’s adoration is free and what gives genuine joy, we can at long last acknowledge that we don’t need to substantiate ourselves or our decency to Him. We can rely on the Holy Spirit and enable Him to work through us.
3. Jesus conveyed the Holy Spirit
Despite the fact that the Holy Spirit was around amid the Old Testament, Jesus guaranteed after his demise to send the Counselor who might inhabit us. Rather than simply being given the Holy Spirit amid specific occasions amid our life, we have the Holy Spirit living inside us, guiding us to do right wherever we go.
4. He realizes us superior to anything we know ourselves
We may live trying to claim ignorance of a transgression, yet simply like God who is all knowing, so is the Holy Spirit. It is the Holy Spirit that gives us that “distinct inclination” that something isn’t right. Request that he demonstrate to you where you might live trying to claim ignorance and alter your way of life.
5. It is through the Spirit that we are received
The Holy Spirit resembles our ‘letter of selection’ into the group of God. St. Paul expresses, “When we cry, “Abba! Father!” it is that specific Spirit giving testimony to our soul that we are offspring of God, and in the event that kids, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ.” (Romans 8:15b-17). Similarly, as a youngster is accepted completely into a family, we turn out to be full relatives with Christ. This is altogether done amid the Sacrament of Initiation, Baptism, which invites us into the Church family.
