When you place a down payment on a house, it’s a promise that the rest is coming. In the same way, God has given believers the Holy Spirit as His down payment, guaranteeing our eternal inheritance in Christ. In this episode of So True, Pastor Philip De Courcy unpacks 2 Corinthians 1:21–22, showing how the Spirit both assures us of salvation and stirs our anticipation for what is yet to come.
Through the Spirit’s indwelling presence, God pledges our full redemption—body, soul, and spirit. This guarantee means our salvation is as secure as God Himself, who cannot break His promise. And yet, the Spirit also reminds us that the best is still ahead: the fullness of heaven, the glory of Christ, and the joy of being made like Him.
