Don't Forget about The Holy Spirit (John 16:4-11) | Pastor PJ Berner

Pastor PJ discusses the fabricated phenomenon of the 'glory cloud' in some contemporary churches, followed by a theological exploration of the Holy Spirit's significance as described by Jesus in John 16. It argues against sensational manifestations like gold dust or glitter, emphasizing the genuine, everyday work of the Holy Spirit in believers' lives. The sermon explains Jesus’s statement that it is better for Him to leave so that the Holy Spirit can come, highlighting the advantages of having the Holy Spirit, including empowerment for worship, prayer, fellowship, sanctification, and evangelism. This sermon underlines the indispensable role of the Holy Spirit in convicting the lost and encourages believers to rely on prayer and the Spirit's power in their spiritual journey.Sermon Notes00:00 Introduction to the Glory Cloud00:45 Questioning the Role of the Holy Spirit01:19 Jesus' Departure and the Promise of the Holy Spirit02:00 Understanding the Importance of the Holy Spirit02:53 Scriptural Insights on the Holy Spirit03:07 Jesus Prepares His Disciples04:10 The Advantage of Jesus' Departure08:07 The Role of the Holy Spirit in a Christian's Life14:44 The Spirit's Presence and the Trinity16:46 Practical Impacts of the Holy Spirit18:37 Navigating Flashing Red Lights19:07 Appreciating Everyday Conveniences19:41 The Spirit's Role in Worship21:14 Access to God Through the Spirit22:00 Unity in the Body of Christ22:51 Confidence and Assurance in the Spirit24:00 Sanctification and Wisdom26:10 The Spirit's Role in Regeneration28:27 The Spirit's Impact on the Lost32:26 The Power of Prayer for the Lost37:02 Reflecting on the Spirit's WorkFind out more about Compass Bible Church.
