The Importance of the Spirit in the Church
In Ephesians 5 Paul uses the great metaphor. You can be drunk with wine, don't come under the influence of these things that will influence your decision making. But then he says in contrast be filled up by the spirit. And what he isn't saying is be drunk, get drunk but just with the spirit. The point is is come under a different kind of influence. He goes on to describe markers of what a Holy Spirit influenced person looks like speaking to one another with Psalms, hymns and spiritual songs.
