What kind of Christian is God looking for?
God seeks Christians who have experienced a genuine salvation and the indwelling Holy Spirit—not those who merely attend church on Sunday. Such believers are sealed with the Holy Spirit, who is the down payment of their inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, the whole person: body, soul, and spirit.
Les explains that being a 'Sunday go-to-meeting Christian' is not what God is looking for. Instead, God seeks men and women who have experienced a genuine salvation and the indwelling Holy Spirit. When a person has the indwelling Spirit, they do not need the law to tell them what to do and what not to do. Les further connects this to Ephesians, where believers are sealed or branded with the Holy Spirit of promise. That indwelling Holy Spirit is the down payment of our inheritance, holding us until the redemption of the purchased possession. The purchased possession is not just the soul but the whole person—body, soul, and spirit.
