If we have been regenerated, we have been given the Spirit of adoption. The Holy Ghost accurately defines our objective reality. We are not serving a creative force that is waiting to naturally stimulate us when we start pleasing Him. The Holy Spirit is God the Holy Spirit. He is eternal. His eternal nature is the sufficient reason He faithfully does as He pleases. We cannot please ourselves beyond what He satisfies. The Holy Spirit is irresistible.

 
 When the Holy Spirit is grieved, He does not react as He promptly does in those who do not know Him. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of divine grace. Even tho the Spirit is grieved His efficient ways cannot be thwarted. For the convincing Spirit  lusts for effective control, Now we accurately know sin grieves the Spirit.  Divine grace is more powerful than sin. Because divine grace has sufficiently illuminated the need find our genuine willingness to be forgiven in our own ability. We now possess the eternal God who dwells fondly in us and has made us the sacred temple of God. Put differently, we are a suitable dwelling of God. If we are to gain an understanding of the secret work of the Holy Spirit then we cannot please Him in our own power. For without Him we can do nothing. Our specific problem is not understanding the irresistible grace the Holy Spirit works in and through us. We are always telling Him it is our necessary ability,but He is always reminding us that it is not by might nor by power but by Me who shows you, Christ.

The eternal Spirit knows our thoughts before we conceive them. He genuinely comprehends us better than we know ourselves. He accurately explains  the spiritual reality of mutual confidence in sealing the word in our hearts. We are not in need of a teacher, since He instructs us by His authority and power alone. For all men are accomplished, liars. All men think there is only a necessary connection between what they set their hearts on and the rewards they naturally receive. But the Holy Spirit has already grasped their thoughts before they conceive them and have uncovered them powerless.The Holy Spirit is the secret communicator to the Father on our behalf since we are most deceived about the matter at hand. Our most appropriate prayers are a affront to a holy God.

 We are enabled by the Holy Spirit to consider the cause of all things that work in this universe. For the He directs the spiritual things. We have not received the Spirit that now works in the sons of disobedience. We have been enlightened by the Holy Spirit who made us alive by regeneration. He implanted His word in our hearts by affectionately calling us from eternity with the irresistible voice of our Father. We were implanted with the seed of resurrection power that germinates into spiritual maturity. We dwell in heavenly houses that are not made by hands.
