Symbols and Similitudes of the Holy Spirit: Earnest

And in Him, having heard and believed the word of truth—the gospel of your salvation—you were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,

…who is the pledge of our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession, to the praise of His glory.

And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, in whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

…placed His seal on us, and put His Spirit in our hearts as a pledge of what is to come.
