Ep.106 - God's Special Agent: The Holy Spirit - Our Greatest Future Hope
Manage episode 463648080 series 3433767
What do we mean by the Spirit’s preservation? How sure can any believer really be that they will realise the great hope of salvation? How much is it down to us and how much does he intervene? Does our lack of perseverance cancel out his act of preservation? Is the ultimate preservation of the Spirit contingent on our faithfulness? How do we interpret the jeopardy of warnings against apostasy and backsliding?
In this final episode of the present series ‘God’s Special Agent’, Pete and the Curious team take a deep dive into the delicate balance between assurance and caution, between perseverance and preservation. What is the Spirit's role? Can he? Does he override our weaknesses and faithlessness or is he contained by them? Tune in for what promises to be an insight into this delicate subject and a resounding conclusion to the series!
