Summary
Zac Poonen urges believers that the Christian life is impossible without being filled with the Holy Spirit, and that we must earnestly ask God for this empowering just as we would pursue any vital connection. Once filled, we must not grieve the Spirit—who is a sad friend, not an angry enemy—through cutting remarks, backbiting, and ungodly speech, especially toward loved ones. He calls listeners to make a clean break from these sins so as not to break God's heart.
