TTN Tyndale Theme Notes:

The Holy Spirit’s Work

Different New Testament writers emphasized different aspects of the Holy Spirit’s work. John, for example, highlighted the Spirit’s role as teacher and revealer of God’s thoughts and ways (John 14:17, 26; 15:26; 16:13-15; 1 Jn 2:20, 27). Luke focused on the Spirit’s guidance and power for evangelism (Acts 1:8; 4:8-12, 31; 8:29-40; 13:9-12). Paul, meanwhile, provides a comprehensive view of the Spirit’s work.

According to Paul, God gives his Holy Spirit to all who come into a saving relationship with Jesus Christ (1 Cor 6:19; Gal 3:2-5; Eph 1:13-14). The Spirit brings new life in Christ. He affirms believers’ salvation (1 Cor 6:11; 2 Thes 2:13) and their identity as children of God (Rom 8:9, 14-17).

The Holy Spirit gives Christians power over sin (Rom 8:1-4), power to live a fruitful life (Gal 5:22-23), and power for ministry (1 Cor 12:1-31). Believers are to be continuously “filled with the Holy Spirit” (Eph 5:18), and though they experience the conflict between the flesh and the Spirit, they can please God by yielding to the Spirit’s guidance and power (Gal 5:16-18).

The Holy Spirit enables Christians to understand God’s thoughts and ways (1 Cor 2:9-16). He gives spiritual gifts to believers to help the church grow (12:1-31). The Spirit leads and empowers worship as believers use the gifts that the Spirit has given them (14:26-33, 39-40).

The Spirit guarantees that believers will receive all the blessings that God has promised (2 Cor 1:21-22; 5:1-5; Eph 1:13-14). The Spirit helps believers and prays for them in their human weakness (Rom 8:26-27). And the goal of the Spirit’s work is to make believers like Christ (Rom 8:28-29).

UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

τὸ ἓν καὶ τὸ αὐτὸ Πνεῦμα

the one and the same Spirit

Here, one and the same emphasizes that there is only one Holy Spirit and that each gift is given by the same Holy Spirit, not by a different spirit. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express one and the same with a comparable phrase that identifies the Holy Spirit as the only one who gives all the gifts. Alternate translation: [there is only one Holy Spirit, who]

Note 2 topic: translate-unknown

ἰδίᾳ

personally

Here, individually refers to how the Spirit “distributes” the gifts to specific individuals. In other words, different people receive different gifts. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express individually with a word or phrase that identifies people on their own, apart from the communities they participate in. Alternate translation: [by himself or herself] or [separately]

Note 3 topic: translate-unknown

καθὼς βούλεται

as ˱he˲_/is/_wishing

Here, just as he desires means that the Spirit “distributes” the gifts as he decides, not because of any other factors. If it would be helpful in your language, you could express desires with a word that refers to what the Spirit “decides” or “chooses.” Alternate translation: [in the way that he chooses]
