We are spirit-filled. Or at least we can be. Jesus died, resurrected, and left us to return to heaven, so that we can receive and be filled with the Spirit—the helper, the comforter, the paraklete (no, not pair of cleats). In order for us to experience the fullness of life that Jesus died to give us, we must live by the Spirit. Attempting life as a follower of Jesus is impossible if we do not learn to walk in step with the Spirit of God. Thankfully, Jesus not only sent us the Spirit, but during his time on earth he modeled what it meant to truly live by the Spirit.
