| Summary: | There is a strong connection between the Holy Spirit and Paul’s ethics, particularly sanctification. a connection that has oftentimes been unclearly stated, insufficiently emphasized or sometimes completely obliterated by both Pentecostals and Wesleyans. While on the one hand Pentecostals have stressed the importance of the Spirit (baptism) without the ’holy’, the Wesleyans on the other have focused on the ’holyness’ without the Spirit. Thus, holiness and Spirit-filled living are seen as mutually exclusive realities. This writer argues that Paul’s understanding of holiness and Spirit-filled living, especially in Romans 8.1-17 strongly suggests otherwise. |
