The Holy Spirit is not the mysterious being that most in the world want to make Him out to be. We have a lot of information about the Holy Spirit recorded in the Bible. God (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) has revealed His will for all mankind. The Word says that all people need to repent and be baptized to become a disciple of Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:18-20) Have you been immersed in water for the remission of your sins? That is what the Holy Spirit has revealed for all men to do! We hope to see you next time on “Speaking The Truth In Love” when we hope to study about the “Work of the Holy Spirit”!
