The Gospel Coalition Booklets: The Holy Spirit (Kevin L. DeYoung)
"Though we must make effort in our growth in godliness, the Spirit empowers through and through. The Bible is not a cheap infomercial telling us to change and then serving as an enthusiastic cheerleader: 'You can do it!' We have already been changed. We are already new creations in Christ and have a new strength at work in our inner being, producing gospel fruit in us by the Spirit. The Bible expects that because God dwells in us by the Spirit, we can, by that same Spirit, begin to share in the qualities that are characteristic of God himself."
