Life in the Spirit | Harrison Campus | Pentecost Sunday

Romans 8:1-11 In Acts 2, the Spirit fell on all believers present in Jerusalem, the church was birthed, and everything changed. Now, God himself takes up residence inside the lives of each individual believer by the presence and power of his Holy Spirit. On this Pentecost Sunday, we reflect on what the Holy Spirit accomplishes in the daily ongoing life of the Christian. From Romans 8:1-11 the message is clear: the Spirit of life has brought about a new freedom from sin and death. This means that all who have the Spirit of God experience a new position, a new pattern, and a new power. We cannot neglect our need for the Spirit’s work, indeed, our whole lives ought to be characterized by walking in the Spirit for apart from him we are weak and powerless. The good news is that because of what Christ accomplished on the cross, his Spirit has now come to grant us communion with God and victory over sin.
