The Spirit Facilitates

Tuckney’s understanding of the Holy Spirit demonstrates that the person and the work of the Spirit are central for believers to apply Christ and His benefits to themselves. It is the Spirit who brings a sinner to union with Christ and bestows the privilege of participating in such benefits as regeneration, adoption, and sanctification. The Spirit also facilitates union and communion with Christ by using various means of grace.
