The Gospel's Life-Changing Power

The Holy Spirit's ministry empowers the message of the Gospel in those who are called to faith in Christ. The ongoing power of the Spirit is evidenced in the of the believer by faithfulness, hope and love - but these are not apart from diligent labor and work on the part of each person. Paul encourages us to persevere in our efforts, and through our struggles, with the reminder of Christ's return and our deliverance 'from the wrath to come.'
