How do you really know if you have the Holy Spirit living inside of your body? How do you know if He lives in you? How can you prove if you are one of His locations, houses, dwelling places, temples...or NOT?
...O the way that you answer this question is the difference between heaven and hell....liberation and the lake of fire.....eternal freedom with Jesus and eternal flames with Satan.... (2 Cor. 13.5)
*8 questions to see if the Holy Spirit is in you..based on what the bible says the Holy Spirit does when He lives in a person who has trusted Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins?
1) Has the holiness and righteousness of God been revealed to your heart ...and is it continuing to be revealed to your heart?
= This is the inner, heart work of the Holy Spirit! (Jn. 16.8) He is HOLY!
2) Has the filthiness of your own sin been revealed to you in light of God’s holiness bringing about a deep conviction that you deserve the fierce judgment of God...and is it continuing to be revealed?
= This is the inner, heart work of the Holy Spirit! (Jn. 16.8)
3) Have your spiritual eyes been opened to see the irresistible light and beauty of the grace of God in the cross, leading you to trust Jesus for the forgiveness of sins...and are you continuing to trust Christ?
= This is the inner, heart work of the Holy Spirit! (2 Cor. 3.15-18)
4) Have you received a new, regenerate/ born-again heart that now
has new desires, loves, cravings, longings, hungers, thirsts for Christ
and His glory?
= This is the inner, heart work of the Holy Spirit! (Titus 3.5)
5) Do you have a new appetite and understanding of the bible and it’s basic doctrines concerning God, Christ and the gospel?
= This is the inner, heart work of the Holy Spirit! (Jn. 16.13)
6) Do you have a new found love in your heart for Jesus Christ and all people, especially other believers in Christ?
= This is the inner, heart work of the Holy Spirit! (Rom. 5.5)
7) Do you have an intimate prayer relationship with God the Father in the
name of Jesus Christ His Son?

8) Do you have desires and passion to be a gospel witness of Jesus to the
lost and hell-bound all around you?

*Listen, whether your answer is I know the Holy Spirit is alive in me or I don’t think He is alive in me...either way....let this be your promise and prayer from the Lord Jesus himself in Luke 11.13,
If you, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the Heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask.
