John 16:5-11 (ESV) 5 But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’ 6 But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. 7 Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you. 8 And when he comes, he will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment: 9 concerning sin, because they do not believe in me; 10 concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see me no longer; 11 concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.


FOUR THINGS WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE HOLY SPIRIT

1: THE HOLY SPIRIT IS A PERSON

AS A PERSON, THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS
- INTELLECT, WILL and EMOTIONS!
- PERSONAL ACTS ATTRIBUTED TO HIM
- TREATED AND RESPONDS AS A PERSON


2: THE HOLY SPIRIT IS DIVINE

John 14:16-17 (ESV) - And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever, 17 even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you.


3: THE HOLY SPIRIT IS RELATIONAL

John 16:13-15 (ESV) 13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. 14 He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you. 15 All that the Father has is mine; therefore I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you.


4: THE HOLY SPIRIT IS OUR HELPER

THREE THINGS HE HELPS US KNOW:

IS WORSE THAN WE THINK
• RIGHTEOUSNESS IS THAN WE THINK
• JUDGEMENT IS THAN WE THINK
