 This one comes from our friend Samuel Silva. Samuel wanted to know, is it possible to have the Holy Spirit and still struggle with a specific sin habitually? Yes, absolutely. Because the very fact that you're struggling is proof that you have him. If the Holy Spirit isn't in you, who is it that's struggling against the sin? Remember, the Bible says that the Spirit strives or struggles or fights against the cravings of the flesh or the sin nature. And that the sin nature fights or resists the Spirit's desires. So the Spirit's desires contradict the flesh's cravings. So if you didn't have the Holy Spirit, you wouldn't be struggling, you would just be sinning. But the very fact that you're struggling against the sin is proof that the Holy Spirit is within you.
