HOLY SPIRIT: OBJECT LESSON

To be filled with the Holy Spirit means that we allow him to occupy and control every area of our lives. How much of you does the Holy Spirit have?

[Produce two glasses of water and two packets of Alka-Seltzer. Open one packet and empty into one glass; drop the other unopened packet into the other glass.]

Both glasses have the Alka-Seltzer, just as all Christians have the Holy Spirit. But notice how you can have the Holy Spirit and not his filling. Let's make it our goal this year to live in such a way as to unwrap the packaging around the presence and power of the Holy Spirit within us.
