How does Christ come to us by His Spirit?

Answered in 1 source

Christ comes to us by His Spirit to convict us of sin and bring us to a saving faith in Him.

The coming of Christ by His Spirit emphasizes the personal and individual nature of salvation. When the Holy Spirit works in a person, He brings conviction of sin, enabling the sinner to recognize their need for a Savior. This was foretold, illustrated in John the Baptist's ministry, where he called people to repentance. As noted in Isaiah 40, the Spirit reveals the transience of human life, yet God's Word endures forever. The Spirit’s work is not only about conviction but also about imparting grace, as mentioned in Psalm 72:6, where the showers represent the blessings and life Christ provides. Therefore, the coming of Christ through the Spirit is vital for regeneration and growth in faith.
