What the Promise of the Holy Spirit Does

Read Qwerty's daily posts on his More Christ Like blog and feel free to leave comments.

Good thoughts Qwerty; this one really impressed me when I was able to let go of the thought/conscience that CGCM was the church I would have to be part of, in order to be in God's perfect will. It was the shelter of Jesus Christ that replaced for me, the need of the fellowship of the organized H church.

Qwerty's # 11. "The promise of the Holy Spirit is a down payment (earnest) of heaven (our inheritance).
Eph 1:13, 14 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory."

Faith in Jesus Christ produces a "hope", a yet unrealized assurance of ultimate eternal life; that at the end of a believers life one will pass on into the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will safely usher us into the mansions He has prepared for us. This assurance, this (positive) hope is the down payment or "earnest" we have here in this life.
