The Holy Spirit and Living a Holy Life
Key Text
1 Thessalonians 5:23 NASB
“Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without
blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Susing Talata. “Pakabanalin nawa kayong lubos mismo ng Diyos ng kapayapaan; at ang inyong espiritu at kaluluwa at katawan ay ingatang buo, na walang kapintasan sa pagdating ng ating Panginoong Jesu-Cristo” (1 Tesalonica 5:23).

8. called “the Spirit of holiness”
The Holy Spirit and Living a Holy Life
Initial Words
Holiness is a crucial theme in the Bible. The pursuit of holiness, to become loving and pure like Jesus, should be a priority for every Christian.
The Holy Spirit is intricately connected with our pursuit of holiness. After all, His name is Holy Spirit, and He is
called “the Spirit of holiness”
(Romans 1:4, NASB).
Panimulang Salita. Ang kabanalan ay isang kritikal ng tema sa Biblia. Ang paghahanap ng kabanalan, na maging maibigin at dalisay na gaya ni Jesus, ay dapat na maging prayoridad para sa bawat Kristiyano. ¶ Ang Banal na Espiritu ay kumplikadong konektado sa ating paghahanap ng kabanalan. Matapos ang lahat, ang pangalan Niya ay Banal na Espiritu at tinatawag Siya na “Espiritu ng kabanalan” (Roma 1:4).

10. Who was and is and is to come!’ ”
The Holy Spirit and Living a Holy Life
1. The Holiness of God
Revelation 4:8 NKJV
“THE FOUR living creatures, each having six wings, were full of eyes around and within. And they do not rest day or night, saying:
‘Holy, holy, holy,
Lord God Almighty,
Who was and is and is to come!’ ”
1. Ang Kabanalan ng Diyos. “At ang apat na nilalang na buhay, na may anim na pakpak ang bawat isa sa kanila, ay puno ng mga mata sa palibot at sa loob. At sila’y walang humpay na nagsasabi araw at gabi, ¶ ‘Banal, banal, banal, ang Panginoong Diyos, ang Makapangyarihan sa lahat, ang noon at ang ngayon at ang darating!’ ” (Apocalipsis 4:8).

11. 1. The Holiness of God
Relational and Moral Quality
Holiness is connected more often with the name of God in the Bible than is any other attribute (Jer. 51:5, Rev. 4:8).
Holiness describes the purity and moral perfection of His nature. God’s holiness means that He is perfectly good and completely free from evil. God’s holiness is the perfection of all His other attributes.
Relasyonal at Moral na Kalidad. Ang kabanalan ay kadalasang konektado sa pangalan ng Diyos sa Biblia kaysa sa alinmang katangian. (Jeremias 51:5, Apocalipsis 4:8). ¶ Ang kabanalan ay inilalarawan ang kadalisayan at kasakdalang moral ng Kanyang likas. Ang kabanalan ng Diyos ay nangangahulugang Siya’y buong sakdal na mabuti at lubos na walang kasamaan. Ang kabanalan ng Diyos ay ang pagsasakdal ng lahat ng iba Niyang katangian.

12. Holiness: the very nature of God.
1. The Holiness of God
Relational and Moral Quality
His power is holy power. His mercy is holy mercy. His wisdom is holy wisdom, and His love is holy love. Holiness is the most intimately divine word of all because it has to do with the very nature of God.
To deny the purity of God’s holy being
is worse than denying His existence.
The latter makes Him nonexistent; the former an unlovely, even detestable god.
Holiness:
the very nature of God.
Ang Kanyang kapangyarihan ay banal na kapangyarihan. Ang Kanyang awa ay banal na awa. Ang Kanyang karunungan ay banal na karunungan, at ang Kanyang pag-ibig ay banal na pag-ibig. Ang kabanalan ay ang pinakamalapit na makalangit na salita sa lahat dahil ito’y may kinalaman sa mismong likas ng Diyos. ¶ Ang pagtanggi sa kadalisayan ng banal na katayuan ng Diyos ay, marahil, masahol pa sa pagtanggi ng Kanyang pag-iral. Ang huli ay ginagawa Siyang di-nabubuhay, ang una’y ginagawa siyang di-kaibig-ibig, kahit pa kasuklam-suklam na diyos.

13. 1. The Holiness of God
Relational and Moral Quality
God’s holiness means that He is separated from sin and entirely devoted to seeking the good that He represents in Himself. Holiness denotes a relational quality, as well as a moral quality.
Of all His attributes, only God’s holiness is mentioned three times in a row.
This indicates something of highest importance. God’s nature is indeed holy.
Ang kabanalan ng Diyos ay nangangahulugan na Siya’y hiwalay sa kasalanan at lubos na nakatalaga sa paghahanap sa mabuti na kinakatawanan Niya sa sarili. Ang kabanalan ay nagpapakilala ng isang relasyonal na kalidad gaya rin ng moral na kalidad. ¶ Sa lahat ng Kanyang mga katangian, ang kabanalan lang ng Diyos ang binabanggit ng tatlong sunod-sunod. Nagpapahiwatig ito ng bagay sa pinakamataas na kahalagahan. Tunay ngang ang likas ng Diyos ay banal.

2. The Agent of Holiness
1 Peter 1:2 NKJV
“ELECT ACCORDING to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, for obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ....”
2. Ang Ahente ng Kabanalan. “Pinili at itinalaga ng Diyos Ama, at ginawang banal ng Espiritu upang sumunod kay Jesu-Cristo at mawisikan ng kanyang dugo...(1 Pedro 1:2).

15. Jesus produces in us lifelong growth
2. The Agent of Holiness
A Role of the Holy Spirit
Our sanctification is accomplished by faith (Heb. 11:6) through the power of the Holy Spirit (1 Pet. 1:2).
Jesus produces in us lifelong growth
in holiness, bringing forth the fruit of
the Spirit within us.
Our being changed into His likeness “comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit” (2 Cor. 3:18, NIV).
Isang Papel ng Banal na Espiritu. Ang ating pagpapakabanal ay nagaganap sa pamamagitan ng pananampalataya (Hebreo 11:6) sa kapangyarihan ng Banal na Espiritu (1 Pedro 1:2). ¶ Lumilikha si Jesus sa atin ng habambuhay na paglago sa kabanalan, pinasisibol ang bunga Espiritu sa atin. Ang ating pagbabago sa Kanyang wangis ay “mula sa Panginoon na siyang Espiritu” (2 Corinto 3:18).

16. 2. The Agent of Holiness
A Role of the Holy Spirit
There is a battle going on in every believer. The tension stems from the fact that sin dwells in us (Rom. 7:20).
The battle we are called to fight is to fix “our eyes on Jesus” (Heb. 12:2, NASB). When the Holy Spirit helps us to look unto Jesus, we will have no desire for sin, and everything that so easily entangles us will be put aside (Heb. 12:1).
May labanang nangyayari sa bawat mananampalataya. Ang tensyong hinaharap nating lahat ay nagmumula sa katotohanang nakatira sa atin ang kasalanan (Roma 7:20). ¶ Ang labanang tinatawagan tayo para makipagbaka ay ituon ang “ating paningin kay Jesus, na siyang nagtatag at nagpasakdal ng ating pananampalataya” (Hebreo 12:2). Kapag tinulungan tayo ng Banal na Espiritu upang tumingin kay Jesus, wala tayong pagkagusto sa kasalanan at lahat ng napakadaling magsangkot sa atin ay isasantabi (Hebreo 12:1).

17. To live a spirit-filled life means that
2. The Agent of Holiness
A Role of God’s Law
To live a spirit-filled life means that
we live according to the law of God. The law is the unchanging rule of
His holiness.
To keep the law is not legalism; it is faithfulness. The law does not save us. It never can. The law is never our way to salvation. Rather, it is the path of the saved.
Isang Papel ng Kautusan ng Diyos. Ang mamuhay ng isang buhay na puspos ng espiritu ay nangangahulugan na namumuhay tayo ayon sa kautusan ng Diyos. Ang kautusan ay ang di-nagbabagong tuntunin ng Kanyang kabanalan. ¶ Ang pag-iingat sa kautusan ay hindi legalismo; ito’y katapatan. Hindi tayo inililigtas ng kautusan. Hinding-hindi nito magagawa. Ang kautusan ay hinding-hindi ang ating daan tungo sa kaligtasan. Sa halip ito ang daan ng naligtas.

18. While the rule and norm for holiness
2. The Agent of Holiness
A Role of God’s Law
While the rule and norm for holiness
is God’s law, the heart of His holiness is love.
Love is the response to God’s saving acts and is manifested in faithfulness. It is not possible to exhibit true love without keeping the law. True love desires to be faithful. Love does not abolish the law. It fulfills it.
Bagaman ang tuntunin at pamantayan ng kabanalan ay ang kautusan ng Diyos, ang puso ng Kanyang kabanalan ay pag-ibig. ¶ Ang pag-ibig ay siyang tugon sa nagliligtas na kilos ng Diyos at ito’y lumilitaw sa katapatan. Hindi maaari na ipakita ang tunay na pag-ibig na hindi iniingatan ang kautusan. Gusto ng tunay na pag-ibig na maging matapat. Hindi pinawawalang-bisa ng pag-ibig ang kautusan. Tinutupad nito ito.

19. The Holy Spirit and Living a Holy Life
3. Pursuing Holiness
Ephesians 4:22-24 NKJV
“THAT YOU put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, and be renewed in the spirit of our mind, and that you
put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.”
3. Efeso 4: “Alisin ninyo and dating paraan ng inyong pamumuhay, ang dating pagkatao na pinasama sa pamamagitan ng mapandayang pagnanasa, at magbago sa espiritu ng inyong pag-iisip, ¶ at kayo’y magbihis ng bagong pagkatao, na nilalang ayon sa wangis ng Diyos, sa katuwiran at kabanalan ng katotohanan” (Efeso 4:22-24).

20. 3. Pursuing Holiness
The Nature of Holiness
Holiness is both God’s gift and His command. Hence, we should pray for it and seek to manifest it daily. Holiness is the fruit of the Spirit displayed in our lives as we walk by the Spirit with Christ every day (Gal. 5:16, 22, 25).
Holiness is Christlikeness. It means belonging to Jesus and being more and more conformed into His likeness.
Ang Likas ng Kabanalan. Ang kabanalan ay parehong regalo at utos ng Diyos. Kaya dapat nating idalangin ito at sikaping ipakita ito araw-araw. Ang kabanalan at ang bunga ng Espiritu na ipinamamalas sa ating buhay habang lumalakad tayo kasama ni Cristo araw-araw sa pamamagitan ng Espiritu (Galacia 5:16, 22, 25). ¶ Ang kabanalan ay Christlikeness (pagiging gaya ni Cristo). Nangangahulugan ito ng pagiging bahagi ni Jesus at nagiging higit at higit pang naaayon sa kanyang wangis.

21. 3. Pursuing Holiness
A Precondition
Holiness is the precondition for enjoying the happiness of fellowship with God. It is the precondition for our usefulness to God. We know the truth
of the saying: “Sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character.”
And, “Character is destiny.” The only thing we will take with us to heaven
will be our characters.
Isang Unang Kondisyon. Ang Kabanalan ang kondisyong dapat mauna para sa pagtamasa ng kaligayahan ng pakikisama sa Diyos. Ito’y kondisyong dapat mauna para sa ating pagiging nagagamit ng Diyos. Alam natin ang katotohanan ng kasabihang: “maghasik ng isang kilos, aani ng isang ugali; maghasik ng isang ugali, aani ng isang karakter.” ¶ At, “ang karakter ay kapalaran.” Ang madadala lang natin sa langit ay ang ating karakter.

22. 3. Pursuing Holiness
A Precondition
Developing new habits and new characters is not self-sanctification by self-effort. Habit forming is the ordinary way that the Spirit leads us in holiness.
Habits are all important in our Christian walk, especially those that grow in connection with such biblical virtues as patience, love, faithfulness, kindness, goodness, gentleness, and self-control.
Ang pagbubuo ng bagong mga ugali at karakter, ay hindi sariling-pagpapakabanal sa pamamagitan ng sariling-pagsisikap. Ang pagbubuo ng ugali ay ang ordinaryong paraan na inaakay tayo ng Espiritu sa kabanalan. ¶ Ang kaugalian ay pawang mahalaga sa ating paglakad Kristiyano, lalo na yung mga ugali na lumalagong may kaugnayan sa biblikal na prinsipyo gaya ng pagtitiyaga, pag-ibig, katapatan, kabaitan, kabutihan, kahinahunan, at pagtitimpi.

23. This will give our work distinct credibility and convincing power.
3. Pursuing Holiness
A Precondition
Our greatest need in our personal holiness is quality time with God when we hear His voice and receive new strength from His Word as led by the Holy Spirit.
This will give our work distinct credibility and convincing power.
Ang pinakamalaking pangangailangan natin sa ating personal na kabanalan ay ang panahong de kalidad kasama ang Diyos kapag naririnig natin ang Kanyang tinig at tinatanggap ang bagong lakas mula sa Kanyang Salita gaya ng pangunguna ng Banal na Espiritu. ¶ Magbibigay ito ng naiibang kredibilidad at umuusig na kapangyarihan sa ating gawain.

24. The Holy Spirit and Living a Holy Life
Final Words
God’s holiness defines Him as singular and separated from the world of sin and death that we experience. Yet, God offers us the opportunity to participate in His holiness. That’s part of what a covenant relationship with Him is about.
We cannot be holy apart from obeying God’s law, which we obey only as the Spirit writes His law in our hearts and minds.
Huling Pananalita. Ang kabanalan Niya ay naglalarawan sa Kanya na nagsosolo at hiwalay sa mundo ng kasalanan at kamatayan na dinaranas natin. Gayunman, narito ang kamangha-mangha: iniaalok sa atin ng Diyos ang oportunidad na makibahagi sa Kanyang kabanalan. ‘Yan ay bahagi nang kung ano ang tungkol sa isang tipang relasyon sa Kanya. ¶ Hindi tayo magiging banal na hiwalay sa pagsunod sa kautusan ng Diyos, na sinusunod lang natin habang ang Banal na Espiritu ay isinusulat ang Kanyang kautusan sa ating puso’t isipan.
