Sylvia Billington: The Holy Spirit

Jubilee Church Wirral – Sunday messages

Sylvia Billington of Jubilee Church Wirral on the holy spirit.

Like the imaginary friend many of us have in childhood, the Holy Spirit is always with us. But unlike that imaginary friend, the Holy Spirit is absolutely real and never leaves us.

When God created man, he was given the entire nature and character of God – in God’s image. But then in Genesis 2:7 he brought the body of man to cover his image. The breath he breathed was to make God’s character alive – and this breath was the holy spirit. But then in Genesis 3, he sinned and lost the spirit of God. He started to kill and sinning badly. He lost the Holy Spirit.

Sylvia talks about how the Holy Spirit accompanies us through life and enables us to live as the creations God intended us to be – with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
