DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

A.B. Simpson emphasizes the transformative presence of the Holy Spirit
in the life of a believer, moving from a distant understanding to an
intimate relationship where the Spirit dwells within us. He highlights
the dual presence of Christ, both in our hearts and in the events of our
lives, empowering us to experience His miraculous works. The sermon
encourages believers to recognize the Holy Spirit as their all-
sufficient Guardian and wonder-worker, capable of performing
extraordinary acts in our lives today, just as He did in biblical times.
Simpson reassures that the power of God is at work within us, enabling
us to achieve beyond our expectations. Ultimately, he calls for a deeper
reliance on the Holy Spirit to fulfill the righteousness of the law in
our lives.

In our earlier experiences we know the Holy Spirit only at a distance,
in things that happen in a providential direction or in the Word alone.
But after a while we receive Him as an inward Guest, and He dwells in
our hearts. He speaks to us in the innermost chambers of our being. The
external working of His power does not cease; rather, it increases and
seems even more glorious. The Power that dwells within us works outside
us, answering prayer, healing sickness, overruling providences, doing
exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the
power that worketh in us (Ephesians 3:20). There is a double presence of
the Lord for the consecrated believer.

He is present in the heart and is mightily present in the events of
life.

He is the Christ in us and the Christ of all our days, with all power in
heaven and earth. The Holy Spirit is our wonder-worker, our all-
sufficient God and Guardian. And He is waiting in these days to work as
mightily in the affairs of men as in the days of Moses, of Daniel and of
Paul.
