Pastor Tim Travis centers on the blessings bestowed upon believers by the Holy Spirit, as found in Ephesians 1:12-14. Following previous discussions on the roles of God the Father (election, predestination, acceptance) and God the Son (redemption through His blood), Pastor Travis now highlights the Spirit’s work in salvation. He emphasizes two key aspects: the Holy Spirit seals believers, signifying a completed transaction, God’s ownership, security, protection, and authenticity; and the Spirit serves as the earnest of our inheritance, a down payment guaranteeing the full redemption of our bodies and assuring us of God’s love as our resident comforter, teacher, and guide who enables holy living. The ultimate purpose of these divine actions, across the Trinity, is to bring praise to God’s glory.
