Facts about Holy Spirit - 7

Dwells in men in the sense of union with, not bodily entrance into the human body:

1 Corinthians 3:16 -17

16 Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you? 

17 If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him; for God's temple is sacred, and you are that temple.

1 Corinthians 7:17 

Nevertheless, each one should retain the place in life that the Lord assigned to him and to which God has called him. This is the rule I lay down in all the churches.

Changes lives to image of Christ:

2 Corinthians 3:18 

And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.

Is eternal:

Hebrews 9:14  

Sources of justification:

1 Timothy 3:16 

Beyond all question, the mystery of godliness is great: He appeared in a body, was vindicated by the Spirit, was seen by angels, was preached among the nations, was believed on in the world, was taken up in glory.

Helps men obey truth:

Spirit moved (brooded) upon water to recreate heavens and earth:

Genesis 1:2 

Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.

Psalms 104:30 

When you send your Spirit, they are created, and you renew the face of the earth.

Invites men to God:

Revelation 22:17 

The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” Whoever is thirsty, let him come; and whoever wishes, let him take the free gift of the water of life.

Only on Holy:

Ephesians 4:4 

There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to one hope when you were called—
