Why do we need the Holy Spirit in the process of salvation?
Answered in 1 source
The Holy Spirit is essential in salvation, as He convicts, regenerates, and empowers believers to respond to the gospel.
The Holy Spirit plays a critical role in the salvation of sinners, acting as the divine agent who convicts individuals of their sin, regenerates them, and empowers them to believe the gospel. Without the Spirit's work, no one can come to Christ (John 6:44). In testifying the gospel of grace, it is vital to recognize that human efforts are insufficient; it is the Spirit who grants faith and ensures the effectiveness of the gospel message. This emphasizes the triune nature of God’s operation in salvation and the reliance upon the Spirit to bring about true transformation in the hearts of believers.
