Will the Holy Spirit (HS) jump in and out of the us (the temple of the HS)?
Will the Holy Spirit (HS) jump in and out of the us (the temple of the HS)?
Are Christians justified (made Holy and Righteous) by Faith or by our Self-Righteousness (Work)?
The bible said our body are the temple of the HS, The HS is so holy that He will not feel comfortable residing in if there is a little bit of stain of sin. If our sins (past, present and future) are not completely cleansed, the HS will be jumping in and out of our body. Once we confessed our sin, He will be in. Once we sin again and not confessed yet, He will be out of the temple until we confess our sins. But, we are only confessing those we know and based on our standard of knowing, what about those sins we don't know and based on our own standard, we did not recognized those areas are sins? If we have a wrong perception and wrong opinion of God, how can we live our Christian lives correctly and how can we leave in peace with God?
English Standard Version Rom 5:1
Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.
This verse is very clear
- We are justified by faith, not by our doing. When we have faith in Christ, we are justified already.
- When we are justified, God and us had made peace through Jesus' death. Therefore, God is no longer angry with us. When God want to be angry because of our sin, God no longer looking at our sin, He looked at Jesus on the cross, the finished work of Jesus on the cross had justified us. Therefore, God can never see a stain of sin in us. Hence, God sees us holy and the Holy Spirit sees us holy and peacefully dwell in our body, who is the temple of the Holy Spirit permanently.
