Topic > Christian and Christian Life: Become a Christian

When you become a Christian, when you accept God as your savior and are ready to serve him, you will need the holy spirit, without the holy spirit it will be really difficult. Holy spirit keeps you safe, keeps you from doing bad things, makes you want to do good things for God. The Bible refers to God's holy spirit as his “hands” or “fingers” (Luke 11:20) . Just as the craftsman uses his hands and fingers to do his work, God has used his spirit to produce results such as the following: the universe, the Bible, the miracles, and the preaching he has done for his people. By referring to God's spirit as his “hands,” “fingers,” the Bible shows that the holy spirit is not a person. Likewise, a craftsman's hands cannot function independently of his mind and body, God's holy spirit works only as he directs it. The Bible also compares God's spirit to water and associates it with such things as faith and knowledge. From the Bible, Stephen was given a miraculous heavenly vision, he only saw two people, not three but he was filled with holy spirit, he looked at the sky and saw the glory of God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. The holy spirit was the power of God in action and allowed Stephen to see the vision. To get the holy spirit you have to pray for it, it is a gift from God so you have to want me to get it, so then God will fill you with holy spirit. Receive Christ through faith. Live by faith.
