 If We Remove the Working of the Holy Spirit in the Bible We Have Nothing Left!

As one reads through the Book of Acts, the work of the Holy Spirit in the early Church is evident on every page. If you remove the work of the Holy Spirit from the Book of Acts you have virtually nothing left. Truly, He empowered the first disciples to “turn the world upside down.”

The places in the world today where the Church is expanding the fastest are those places where Jesus’ followers are yielded to and empowered by the Holy Spirit. This should not surprise us. The Holy Spirit can accomplish more in ten seconds than we can accomplish in ten thousand years of our own efforts.

Thus it is of vital importance that the disciple-making minister understands what Scripture teaches about the work of the Holy Spirit in the lives and ministries of believers.

In the Book of Acts, we frequently find examples of believers being baptized in the Holy Spirit and empowered for ministry.

We would be wise to study the subject so that we can, if possible, experience what they experienced and enjoy the miraculous help from the Holy Spirit that they enjoyed. Although some claim that such miraculous works of the Holy Spirit were confined to the age of the original Apostles, we find no Scriptural, historical or logical support for such an opinion. It is a theory born from unbelief.

Those who believe what God’s Word promises will experience the promised blessings.

Like the unbelieving Israelites who failed to enter the Promised Land, those who don’t believe God’s promises today will fail to enter into all that God has prepared for them.

Which category are you in?
