THE DIVINE ECONOMY IN CHRIST BAPTIZING ALL THE BELIEVERS IN THE SPIRIT INTO ONE BODY
In the New Testament two aspects of the Spirit are revealed—the Spirit of life and the Spirit of power. The Spirit of life is within us, whereas the Spirit of power is outside of us. The Spirit of life is essential, and the Spirit of power is economical. Anything that is economical is not as crucial as something that is essential. The Spirit of life comes to us and reaches and enters into us as the divine essence to constitute us into something divine. However, the Spirit of power is not related to the divine essence but to the economy. Many New Testament readers and teachers have not been clear concerning the Spirit of life, the essential Spirit, and the Spirit of power, the economical Spirit.
