The sermon addresses the difference between merely asking for the Holy Spirit and actually being changed by it. The speaker warns that if one remains comfortable with their natural tendencies, attitudes, or responses—even in private moments like interacting with a spouse—they are still operating from the natural self. True spiritual change means accepting the things of the Spirit, which are foreign to the unspiritual person.
