You Don't Need the Holy Spirit

Romans 8:9-14

We need to remember the God that is within us each day, because we cannot do this life on our own.

If we live without the Holy Spirit, we operate on our own strength and the world does not notice us, the lost are not being reached, and we only accomplish human things. Nothing in this life matters without God.

You don't need the Holy Spirit:
-unless you want salvation in Christ
-unless you want resurrection from the dead.
-unless you want domination over sin.

V. 9- if a person doesn't have the Holy Spirit, they are not a Christian.

1 Corinthians 6:19

The presence of the Holy Spirit is necessary in order to be a Christian. (to belong to Christ)

Because of sin our bodies will die. But if you have the Spirit of Christ, you will live.

2 Corinthians 4:16

We owe  the flesh nothing, we owe the Spirit everything.

Those with Christ should live as Christ did.

It's not enough for you to have the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit must have you. All of you, not just certain parts of you.

Galatians 5:22-23

What should bother you, is that there is no noticeable difference in the lives of those living with Christ in them.

Life point:
I need the Holy Spirit in my life, therefore I yield to the Holy Spirit in my life.
