Answered in 2 sources

The assurance of the Holy Spirit's indwelling comes through faith in Christ and the transformative power evident in our lives.

Romans 8 assures believers that the Spirit of God dwells in them, marking them as belonging to Christ. In verses like Romans 8:11, the apostle Paul explains that the same Spirit that resurrected Christ from the dead gives life to our mortal bodies. This indwelling empowers believers to live righteously, proving their new identity in Christ. Furthermore, 1 Corinthians 6:19 affirms that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, which signifies a profound truth about our sanctification and the continuous guidance of the Spirit in adhering to God’s Word.
