Jesus sent the Holy Spirit to comfort and guide us. John 14:17 says, "The Spirit of Truth whom the world cannot receive because it sees him not neither knows him, but you know him for he dwells with you and shall be in you." 1 John 4:13 tells us that we dwell in him and he in us because he has given us of his Spirit. Romans 8:9 says that those who do not have the Spirit of Christ are none of his. 1 Corinthians 3:16 says that we are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in us. The Holy Spirit will convict and warn against sin. We can choose to live a life of integrity with His help. John 14:26 says that the Holy Spirit is our Comforter, which is a great encouragement to believers. Ephesians 4:30 tells us not to grieve the Holy Spirit by our selfish actions. Also, we are told in 1 Thessalonians 5:19 not to quench or hinder the Spirit. There are people and forces in this world that would want to intimidate and control, but be controlled by the Holy Spirit. Yield to Him and He will guide you into all truth.
