How do we know walking in the Spirit is true?

Answered in 1 source

Walking in the Spirit is true as it is grounded in Scripture, particularly in Paul's letters that define the believer's relationship with the Spirit.

The truth of walking in the Spirit is rooted in the authority of Scripture. In Galatians 5:16, Paul states, 'Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.' This promise is reinforced by the teachings found elsewhere, such as Romans 8, where Paul elaborates on the distinction between walking after the flesh and the Spirit. Additionally, the transformative power of the Gospel affirms the believer's ability to live a life led by the Spirit, emphasizing that this is not achievable through human effort but is a result of divine enablement. This truth brings assurance to the believer, confirming that by relying on the Spirit's guidance, one is empowered to live a life pleasing to God.
