Jesus told his disciples it’d be to their advantage that he was going away because, if he didn’t, the Helper wouldn’t come to them. Then in Acts, we read about the Holy Spirit’s descent on believers. So what advantage does the Holy Spirit bring?
In this breakout session from TGCW24, Nancy Guthrie considers how our experience of the Holy Spirit today differs from that of Old Testament saints. She also unpacks the advantages of the Spirit’s indwelling and what the Spirit-empowered life looks like.
She discusses the following:
The biblical imagery of wind and fire
A survey of the Holy Spirit in the Bible
Longing for guidance
Longing for power
Longing for more of Christ
Longing for spiritual fruit
Longing for glory
