What does the Bible say about the Holy Spirit's work?
Answered in 3 sources
The Bible teaches that the Holy Spirit is essential for the indwelling presence of God in believers' lives and is connected with the work of Jesus Christ.
The Holy Spirit's work is crucial in the life of a believer, providing conviction of sin, understanding of God's truth, and the application of Christ's redemptive work. According to John 7:38-39, Jesus explains that those who believe in Him will experience 'streams of living water' flowing from within them, referring to the Spirit that would be given after His glorification. This indicates not only the importance of the Holy Spirit but also the necessity of His work in the believer's life to comprehend and apply the fullness of Christ's redemption.
