The Holy Spirit indwells all Christians. That is, he lives inside of them and gives them power to do what God wants them to do.

#### More Information About This Topic
The Holy Spirit living in a person and giving him power to obey God is called different things in the Bible. It is called being filled with the Holy Spirit (see: Ephesians 5:18), the baptism of the Spirit (see: Acts 1:4-5), the pouring out of the Spirit (see: Acts 2:17), and being born of the Spirit (see: John 3:6). Some scholars think that these writers are all talking about the same thing. That is, the Holy Spirit gives power to Christians to do the things that honor God. He also helps Christians to know when they do things that do not honor God. Other scholars think that these writers talked about different things that happen at different times for Christians. That is, each of the things said about what the Holy Spirit does is a different thing. That is, being filled with the Holy Spirit and being born of the Spirit are different things the Holy Spirit does.

A person is not able to do the things that honor God without the power of the Holy Spirit. Without the Holy Spirit, people only want to continue sinning (see: Romans 7:7-25; Galatians 5:16-18; Ephesians 2:1-3). With the power of the Holy Spirit, a person desires to do the things that honor God, and he is given the power to do the things that honor God (see: John 3:1-16; 6:63; Romans 8:1-17; Galatians 5:22-23). The Holy Spirit causes a person to be set apart to serve God (see: Romans 15:16; 1 Corinthians 6:11; 2 Thessalonians 2:13; Titus 3:5; 1 Peter 1:1-3).
The Holy Spirit does many more things to help Christians. For example:
* He teaches them the truth of all spiritual things (see: John 14:26; 16:13).
* He gives them understanding, knowledge, and wisdom (see: 1 Corinthians 2:12; Colossians 1:9).
* He causes them to have “fruit.” That is, they do things that honor God (Galatians 5:22-23; 2 Timothy 1:7).
* He gives them spiritual gifts. These are special abilities for serving other people (see: 1 Corinthians 12:1-31).
* He gives them words to speak so that they can tell others the gospel (see: Matthew 10:20; Mark 13:11; Acts 1:8).
