The Holy Spirit works in believers' lives as a helper, teacher, and guide, enabling authentic Christian living. His presence is evidenced through the ability to truly acknowledge Jesus as Lord and through the exercise of spiritual gifts. These gifts are uniquely distributed among believers for serving God's purposes and benefiting the church body. Understanding and utilizing these gifts requires active service, spiritual guidance, and openness to God's leading in our lives.
Paul writes to the Corinthian church with all its messiness and disunity, they can be the representation of Christ to the world in which they live. The current church isn't much different. Will we allow Christ to reign in our lives or will we allow Satan to knock us off of our task?
