Listen "Holy Spirit and the Holy Life"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we dive deep into the mystery and power of the Holy Spirit—tracing His work from the Old Testament to Pentecost and beyond. Pastor Matt responds to a thoughtful question about the difference between the Spirit’s activity before and after Christ, revealing how the Spirit moved selectively in the Old Testament but is now poured out on all believers for the building up of the Church.We explore the surprising significance of Bezalel—the first person in Scripture explicitly filled with the Spirit—and how his Spirit-empowered craftsmanship points to the Holy Spirit’s role in new creation. From there, we trace a rich biblical theology of the Spirit through Genesis, Exodus, Acts 2, and Romans, culminating in a clear and compelling vision of sanctification and the holy life.This episode is packed with theological depth, pastoral warmth, personal testimony, and fresh insight into what it means to live as Spirit-filled people in unity, holiness, and power.Highlights include:– The Spirit’s selective anointing in the Old Testament– Why Bezalel matters for understanding Pentecost– The tabernacle as a microcosm of new creation– The difference between gifts and fruit of the Spirit– Why unity in the Church precedes revival– The sudden and the slow work of God in sanctification– Debunking Romans 7 as the “normal Christian life”– Personal stories of transformation by the Spirit’s power📖 Scriptures: Genesis 1, Exodus 31, Acts 2, Romans 6–8, Jeremiah 17🎙️ Runtime: ~1 hour#HolySpirit #Pentecost #Sanctification #SpiritualGifts #Acts2 #BibleTeaching #WellspringChurch #ChristianPodcast
