The Holy Spirit

Jesus teaches four ways the Spirit works in John 13-17. The Spirit teaches as we read the Bible (John 14:26), empowers us to love as we obey Jesus' teaching and produces spiritual fruit in our lives (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self-control. John 15:8, Galatians 5:22-23), gives us spiritual gifts so we can put love into action and meet the needs of others (Romans 12, 1 Corinthians 12), and convicts lost people about sin, righteousness and judgment as we share the good news (John 16:8).
