How do we know the promise of the Holy Spirit is true?
Answered in 2 sources
The promise of the Holy Spirit is affirmed throughout Scripture and in acts of faith where believers experience His presence.
The reality of the Holy Spirit's promise is substantiated through biblical promises and experiences recorded in Scripture. For instance, Romans 8:16 assures believers that the Spirit bears witness with their spirit that they are children of God. This inner assurance and transformation serve as evidence of the Spirit’s work. As believers live out their faith, they experience the Holy Spirit's guidance, leading to the fruits of the Spirit and confirming the truth of His promise in their daily lives.
