“The Holy Spirit is Eternal and Holy”
Third, the Holy Spirit is eternal and holy. We read in the gospel of John about Jesus’ promise to His disciples that the Spirit will be with them forever (14:16). And in Hebrews we read that it was through “the eternal Spirit” that Jesus “offered himself unblemished to God” (9:14). The Spirit is not just a flighty, whimsical spirit who comes and goes like the wind. He is an eternal being. The Spirit is also holy. Obviously, we commonly call Him the “Holy Spirit,” and this is reinforced throughout the New Testament (Romans 1:4 and 5:5 are two examples). But consider this truly amazing fact: Because the Spirit is holy and dwells in us, our bodies are holy sanctuaries from God’s vantage point. Too often we disdain our bodies as the source of sin and our fallenness; yet they are precisely where God the Spirit chooses to dwell!
* Do you treat your body as the dwelling place for a completely holy God? Are there any sins you need to repent of, as they have abused His holy sanctuary?
