How do we know the doctrine of the Holy Spirit's intercession is true?

Answered in 1 source

It is affirmed by Scripture, particularly in Romans 8:26, which describes the Spirit's role in helping us pray.

The doctrine of the Holy Spirit's intercession is firmly rooted in Scripture, as detailed notably in Romans 8:26-27. This passage emphasizes that we often do not know how to pray as we should; however, the Spirit intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. Several Biblical examples and theological interpretations affirm that the Spirit understands our needs and the will of God, completely transcending our capabilities in prayer. This assurance stems not from human reasoning but from the testimony of Scripture which reveals the Spirit's role as a divine helper and intercessor. Thus, this doctrine's truth is grounded in both the Word and the experiential awareness of God's assistance through the Holy Spirit.
