  1. Grieving The Holy Spirit

  2. Acts 4:32-5:11 • Acts 4:32-37 – The Fruit of the Gospel • Acts 5:1-4 – The Sin of Hypocrisy • Acts 5:5-10 – God’s Discipline • Acts 5:11&13 – The Result • How do we apply this?!?!

  3. Three Questions • How does a heart become hardened? • How does God respond to a hard heart? • How can a hard heart become soft again?

  4. Peter’s Questions: Acts 5:4b “Why is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to man but to God.” Acts 5:9 9But Peter said to her, “How is it that you have agreed together to test the Spiritof the Lord?”

  5. How does a believer get this far gone? • Spirit’s Agenda – Glorify Jesus • Spirit’s Means – Save/Sanctify His Bride • What if our agenda opposes His? • Option #1 – we believe and repent. • Option #2 – we refuse to believe and grieve the Holy Spirit.

  6. Grieving The Holy Spirit Ephesians 4:30 30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 1 Thessalonians 5:19 19 Do not quench the Spirit. Isaiah 63:10 10 But they rebelled and grieved his Holy Spirit; therefore he turned to be their enemy, and himself fought against them.  

  7. Grieving The Holy Spirit Hebrews 3:14–19 14 For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end. 15 As it is said, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.” 16 For who were those who heard and yet rebelled? Was it not all those who left Egypt led by Moses? 17 And with whom was he provoked for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness? 18 And to whom did he swear that they would not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient? 19 So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.

  8. God’s response to a hardened heart? • Gives opportunity to repent: 1 Jn 1:9 & Heb 12:1-2 • Disciplines if repentance is absent. • Natural Consequences - Galatians 6:7-8 • Providential Intervention – Hebrews 12:4-11 • How do I know if I am grieving the Spirit? • Is it whenever I sin? No (1 John 1:8-10)… • It is when there is no repentance of sin.

  9. 1 Corinthians 11:27–29 27Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning the body and blood of the Lord. 28Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself.  

  10. 1 Corinthians 11:30–32 30That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died. 31 But if we judged ourselves truly, we would not be judged. 32 But when we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined so that we may not be condemned along with the world.
