God has wonderful promises regarding how His children live the Spiritual Life on earth. God IS Spiritual and He wants His children (You and Me) to live Spiritually.


1. Do you recall, from our last study WHO God The Father sent, to enable you to live the Christian life? John 14:26 That's right, God the Holy Spirit. So now check out 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 and tell me where HE (God The Holy Spirit) is right now.

 

There is a difference between
Being IN the Family of God
and being IN Fellowship with
Him
. Can you see the difference?

 

2. What is the Believer commanded to do in Ephesians 5:18
Love one another, just as Christ loved you?
Be Filled with the Spirit?
To turn away from sin?
To trust God for all your needs?

3. What does God command you to do, in Galatians 5:16 so that you won't be able to fulfill the desires of your flesh?

Pray continually?
Read your Bible daily?
Walk in the Spirit?
Give Him your praise?

Before salvation, having been born 'in Adam', a person's life is under the complete control of his 'sinful nature' (Romans 5:12). At the point of salvation, God The Holy Spirit takes up residence inside your body and HE enables you to have power over your nature to sin (1 Corinthians 6:19). Now, as a Believer when you fail to, or decide not to access that God given power - and commit sin, you grieve The Holy Spirit and even quench His power. The Bible refers to this as being carnal or fleshy. (Romans 8:5-7) (1 Corinthians 3:1-3).

4. When tempted to sin, what does James 1:13-14 say that you're being carried away by?

5. But, if you do sin what is God faithful to do if you get honest with Him? (1 John 1:9)

6. Again, just for the sake of review, what is the one thing 'that could never happen' that God has promised you in John 10:27-29?

In this lesson you have learned several promises, of God pertaining to living, or 'walking' in your Spiritual Life as a child of God, Ephesians 5:8. In our next lesson, you'll discover how you, as a Spiritual child of God can have an effective Prayer Life.
