Who is God? Week 2

The sermon explores the concept of God's grace, defining it not just as unmerited favor but as God's desire and ability to act for, in, and through individuals in ways they cannot achieve on their own. It emphasizes understanding the Holy Spirit as the Spirit of Grace, continuously working within believers. Contrasting the Old and New Testaments, the message highlights how the Holy Spirit now dwells permanently within believers, unlike the temporary bestowal in the Old Testament. Referencing Joel's prophecy and its fulfillment on the day of Pentecost, the sermon underscores the importance of cultivating a relationship with God through the Spirit, advocating for a move away from religious actions towards a genuine, Spirit-led life.
