We believe the Holy Spirit is the Third person of the Trinity who convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment. He also in the present age regenerates believers in Christ, baptizes them into the church, the body of Christ, indwells them permanently, seals them unto the day of redemption, and bestows spiritual gifts upon each one. (John 16:8-11; I Cor.12:13; II Cor. 3:6; Rom. 8:9; Eph. 1:13,14; etc.)
