Do You Have the Spirit? | Gary Thomas | Woodway Campus
Summary
The sermon challenges the traditional focus on "being saved" and instead emphasizes the present reality of having the Holy Spirit, as evidenced by the early church's questions. Citing scholar Gordon Fee and referencing 1 Corinthians 2, it contrasts "Are you saved?" with "Do you have the Spirit?" The practical takeaway is that being a Christian involves experiencing God's presence, power, and guidance in daily life, not just a future salvation.
