And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27  And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules. 28  You shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers, ...

But they rebelled and grieved his Holy Spirit; therefore he turned to be their enemy, and himself fought against them.   Then he remembered the days of old, of Moses and his people. Where is he who brought them up out of the sea with the shepherds of his flock? Where is he who put in the midst of them his Holy Spirit,   who caused his glorious arm to go at the right hand of Moses, who divided the waters before them to make for himself an everlasting name,   who led them t...

There always seems to be a debate when the topic of the Holy Spirit is discussed.  Some want to focus on the experience we have with the Holy Spirit.  Others want to make sure we keep things "orderly."  Both of these are misguided.  The Holy Spirit is personal and powerful.  You cannot keep Him under control and He will never go against what God's Word says.
