Holy Spirit: Our Guide
Jul 23, 2023 • Leke Aina
This sermon begins by establishing that the Holy Spirit is not merely a force or an influence, but a person who guides believers into truth. Preaching Elder, Leke Aina, then highlights the need for a guide, given the deceitfulness of the world, and posits that the Holy Spirit is the ideal guide because humans are not meant to guide themselves. He then examines the four major works of the Holy Spirit in the life of a believer – salvation, spiritual illumination, sanctification, and empowerment. Finally, the sermon concludes by identifying hindrances to following the Holy Spirit’s guidance, such as distraction and a tendency to rely on our own understanding.
