As New Testament believers the bible tells us that God’s presence is on the inside of us through the Holy Spirit. The way we respond to the Holy Spirit will determine how active God’s presence is.‭‭1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5‬:‭19‬ ‭AMP‬‬ says:”Do not quench [subdue, or be unresponsive to the working and guidance of] the [Holy] Spirit.“
