LESSON AIM: To teach teenagers about the Holy Spirit.

CENTRAL TRUTH: To live a life of dominion, you need to be filled with the Holy Spirit.

INTRODUCTION: It is the Holy Spirit who through the Word makes the human Spirit a new creature in Christ Jesus. The Holy Spirit is present in the New Birth to bear witness with your Spirit that you are a child of God (Rom. 8:14-16)
