This Sunday I am preaching on the Doctrine of the Holy Spirit.The Holy Spirit is an often overlooked topic in the church.  The Holy Spirit seems so foriegn to us and yet he is such a part of who we are as believers.  Do you realize that God is described as a triune God? Father, Son and Holy Spirit.  We do a disservice to ourselves and each other if we neglect the teaching of the Holy Spirit.  We see the power of the Holy Spirit in the early church in a way we only long to see today.  Did the presence of the Holy Spirit only offer power and change way back then?  I long to be in prayer meetings where the room is shaken. Stephen stood in front of those who would kill him and he stood firm ready to die.  The presence of God allowed him to face certain death with faith and victory.  What if we allowed the Holy Spirit to have full reign in our lives and in our church?  The power and the result would overwhelm us.... maybe that is the reason we dont like to talk about the Holy Spirit?  Come Holy Spirit, Come! Overwhelm us with your power and move Suddenly in our hearts to create a passion and desire for you!
