God has said, stop with me, because then the unknowing thing will teach you.

Dr. Tony Evans talks about the benefits of allowing God's Holy Spirit to dwell inside you.

You no longer need to be led by secular thinking, secular information, and secular instructors.

This is the alternative with Dr. Tony Evans, author, speaker, senior pastor of Oaklef Bible Fellowship in Dallas, Texas,

and president of the Urban Alternative.

The Bible teaches that as disciples of Jesus, we are in Christ, but it also says Christ is in us.

So which is it?

Well, Dr. Evans sorts that out today as he continues his look at the work of the Holy Spirit,

focusing on what it means to be anointed.

Let's join him as he begins.

I want to look at this name given to him, this identification, this symbol, in 1 John 2.

He's called the anointing.

Now if you've been in church for any length of time, you've heard the word anointing, anointed, the anointed one.

This word is a word that speaks to a specific work of the Holy Spirit that you don't want to leave home without.

The anointing is the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit designed to do his work in your life.

The Holy Spirit, when you become a Christian, enters your human spirit.

So you've got a perfect resident in your human spirit that now wants to give information to your infected soul.

And when the Holy Spirit that now invades your human spirit sends out data that is received, adopted in your soul,

your soul begins to get healed.

Or as we would say, it really starts to get saved.

We want to take you now into a little deeper understanding of how it works.

That is given to us in 1 Corinthians chapter 2.
