Concerning the Holy Spirit.
“The Spirit of Truth” was sent to teach us all things (John 14:26), to guide us into all truth (John 16:13). The Holy Spirit lives in the believer (1 Cot. 6:19). For the Christian, he is the inner, subjective source of authority (Acts 16:6-7; James 1:5) as the Scriptures are the outer, objective source of authority. Iris the resurrected Chyrist who speaks to us through the Spirit (Acts 1:2). The Spirit is our teacher (1 Cot. 2:13), the source of any spiritual power we may have (Acts 1:8; 10:38; Rom. 15:13). He is also the source of any gifts we may have (1 Cot. 12:4-12) and of the moral fruit of the Christian life (Gal. 5:22-23; Eph. 5:9). We are to walk in the Spirit or where the Spirit leads (Gal. 5:25).
