Power to discern between good and evil
The Holy Spirit gives us the power to discern between good and evil in several ways.
First, the Holy Spirit helps us to develop a biblical worldview. A biblical worldview is a way of understanding the world based on the Bible. The Bible teaches us about God, ourselves, and the world. When we have a biblical worldview, we can better discern between good and evil.
Second, the Holy Spirit helps us to develop a conscience. Conscience is an inner voice that tells us right from wrong. The conscience is not perfect, but it is a gift from God that can help us to discern between good and evil.
Third, the Holy Spirit helps us to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit’s leading. The Holy Spirit is a person who wants to guide us in our lives. When we are exposed to the Holy Spirit’s leading, He will help us to discern between good and evil.
Fourth, the Holy Spirit helps us to grow in our knowledge of God. The more we know about God, the better we discern between good and evil. The Holy Spirit is our teacher, and He wants to help us to grow in our knowledge of God.
Fifth, the Holy Spirit helps us to grow in our relationship with Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the ultimate example of good. When we grow in our relationship with Jesus Christ, we will become more like him and better able to discern between good and evil.
The Holy Spirit is a powerful helper in our discernment. He is available to all who believe in Jesus Christ and wants to help us discern between good and evil.
Hebrews 5:14 “But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.”
