that's a fair assessment ... though you may have stated this, the Trinity though "one" in nature, being, purpose, eternity, are 3 Persons ... indeed the Son is at the right hand of the Father, more than just symbolic, and the Spirit did not come (to each and every believer) until Christ first went away ... John 14 and 16 ... I would also state that Salvation comes first ... then the Spirit begins to work in the person, resulting in the things you mentioned above ... FReegards

Bobby, I would submit that The Spirit is always working on you. Every time you do any good deed, it's because the Holy Spirit acted on you, and you responded. All good comes from God. Without access to the influences of his Holy Spirit, you'd be a wretch of unspeakable wickedness.

Just because you (and I) don't always turn our attentions towards religion, it deosn't mean that God hasn't been working in our lives.

God is life. When He withdraws from you there is only one outcome.
