Does the spirit of God live in me?
Once reunited in glory, Jesus would go to the Heavenly Father to send His Spirit. The Spirit of God would begin to dwell within His people. If you are a Believer, then the Bible calls you God’s temple because God’s Spirit dwells in you. As children of God, we literally have the Spirit of God living inside of us.
Does the Holy Spirit take the place of Jesus?
The Holy Spirit descended over Jesus in a corporeal way, as a dove, at the time of his baptism, and a voice from Heaven was heard: “This is my beloved Son with whom I am well pleased.” He is the Sanctifier, the Helper, Comforter, the Giver of graces, he who leads persons to the Father and the Son.
Does the Holy Spirit live in unbelievers?

Is there a difference between Spirit and Holy Spirit?
There is no difference, they are the same thing. God has only one Spirit, HIS Spirit! And His Spirit is holy. Which is why His Spirit is referred to as the Holy Spirit sometimes.
What is receiving the Holy Spirit?
Theologians have filled untold pages with their thoughts on the subject, but the simplest answer is that the Holy Spirit is the presence of God, and it was sent to guide us after Jesus ascended to heaven. You will receive the Holy Spirit after you get saved and become a Christian.
Why is the Holy Spirit necessary?
The Holy Spirit works in us by peeling away our sinful characteristics and replacing them with godly characteristics. His work in us makes us more and more like Jesus. Just as Acts 1:8 mentions, the Holy Spirit empowers Christians to be effective witnesses for Jesus Christ.
How do you know if you are filled with the Holy Spirit?
Signs of being filled with the holy spirit is the evidence of speaking in tongues. After salvation, a believer can be baptized in the Holy Spirit and they will speak in tongues. “And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.”
Does the Holy Spirit draws us to God?
When we come to Christ we come because the Holy Spirit has drawn us to Him. We can’t decide to get saved at a certain time in our life. The only way we are saved is when the Spirit draws us. “No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me, draw him: and I will raise him up, at the last day,” John 6:44.

Here are five reasons believers don’t walk in the power and authority they have in Christ. 1. Sin. When we habitually sin, we come under Satan’s authority, and he has legal rights over us until we repent. That is why Jesus said, “‘The ruler of this world is coming, and has nothing on Me'” (John 14:30, NKJV).
What does it mean that Christ lives in our spirit?
When we believed in Him, Christ came to live in our spirit. Now He’s moving into our heart to make it His home. In the future, when He returns, He will even spread into our body so that God’s glory can shine through our entire being. The One who lives in us is our hope of such glory.
How does a Christian’s power from God strengthen the inner being?
