In this deepdive, Harry Greenwood explores the witness of the Word and the Spirit, explaining how believers gain an inner witness that confirms they are children of God, and how the truth of God sets people free. The talk traces the born-again life from natural birth to spiritual birth, emphasizing that God is a Spirit and that relationship with Him is direct and transformative. He shows how the Word is spirit and life when it is combined with the Spirit, and how truth without life can bind, while truth with life frees.
The main insights cover living in the spiritual realm rather than clinging to natural reasoning, the importance of hearing the preceding word from God, and the necessity of a two-fold witness—the Word and the Spirit. He compares what is true (the factual reality) with the truth (God's life in us), explains how to apply faith to healing and adversity, and encourages practical steps like standing in faith and using negative circumstances to demonstrate God's power. The episode closes with a call to pray for the sick and to continue growing in the union of truth and life in Christ.
Takeaways: inner witness of the Spirit confirms your sonship; life in the Spirit comes from trusting the Word; truth frees and heals; faith acts on God's promises; and the Word and Spirit together empower a dynamic, life-filled faith.
