The Holy Spirit in the life of Jesus
Dr. Roberto Miranda(Audio: Español)
RESUMEN:
In this teaching, the speaker discusses the importance of understanding the Holy Spirit as the third Person of the Trinity. The Holy Spirit is no less personal than Jesus or the Father, and is involved in all aspects of creation and the Church. The Trinity is a mystery that cannot be fully defined or understood by language or human reason. The Holy Spirit has been sent by Christ to sustain the Church until His Second Coming and has many functions, including teaching, encouraging, strengthening, and instructing. The Holy Spirit is the same Spirit of Jesus that dwells within believers and helps them carry out the tasks of the Christian life. To live an effective spiritual life, believers must live in intimacy with the Person of the Holy Spirit.
Living in intimacy with the Holy Spirit is crucial for every believer to live an effective spiritual life. The Pentecostal attitude recognizes the importance of the Holy Spirit, and believers should address and invite the Holy Spirit into their lives. Jesus lived in deep intimacy with the Holy Spirit during His earthly ministry and calls us to do the same. The Holy Spirit was present in the incarnation of the Son of God, the baptism of Jesus, and His ministry in the desert. Believers should cultivate an awareness of the Holy Spirit's role in their spiritual life and always keep it in mind.
The Holy Spirit played a significant role in Jesus' life, leading Him into the desert for His encounter with Satan and anointing Him for His Ministry. The Holy Spirit also specializes in baptizing people with the Holy Spirit, as Jesus did with His followers. Luke's Gospel emphasizes the importance of the Holy Spirit, and we should strive to live in intimacy with Him, opening all the doors of our lives to Him. We should pray for the Holy Spirit to fill our lives, saturate us, and baptize us, so that we may live in freedom and serve God fully.We are going to start with something that we have already alluded to in this whole series of teachings on the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and on the supernatural life, on the filling of the Holy Spirit, we have been talking about, and what happens is that in the course of Talking about something so vast and so complex, you mention different things and package them in different ways, and when you package them in one way they look a certain way, and when you mention them in another way, sometimes you don't see coherence in a series of themes and elements.
So I want to take some of the issues that I've talked about and approach them from a more united perspective, and that's specifically about the Person of the Holy Spirit as seen in Scripture. Now I am going to speak specifically about the third Person of the Trinity, who is the Holy Spirit, because I want you to have clearly pictured in your mind that third Person of the Trinity and His different qualities and functions in the lives of the children of God.
