yielded to the Holy Ghost

The ultimate evidence that one is yielded to the Holy Spirit is a persistent exercise of being honest and pure in motive and method (1 Peter 1:22). No Christian can be pure and honest by simply submitting to regulations. It requires transformation (Romans 12: 1,2). God does not change our human nature at salvation... He changed our heredity... thus, making sanctification by the Holy Spirit a reality.

Our advantage as Christians in this world that is deliberately hostile to Christ is not in doing a great work for God... it is God working in us (Ephesians 3:20). When we are yielded to the Holy Ghost, honesty and purity will triumph over the inclination for self-vindication and preservation and demonstrate the very life and likeness of Jesus Christ.

Sincerely, Dr. Arthur Belanger
