The Holy Spirit is not an Optional

Romans 8:9 Easy-to-Read Version (ERV) 9 But you are not ruled by your sinful selves. You are ruled by the Spirit, if that Spirit of God really lives in you. But whoever does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to Christ. Roma 8:9 Ang Bagong Tipan: Filipino Standard Version (FSV) 9 Ngunit hindi na kayo namumuhay ayon sa laman, kundi ayon sa Espiritu, kung naninirahan sa inyo ang Espiritu ng Diyos. Subalit sinumang walang Espiritu ni Cristo ay hindi kay Cristo Isaiah 53 Easy-to-Read Version (ERV) 53 Who really believed what we heard? Who saw in it the Lord’s great power?[a] 2 He was always close to the Lord. He grew up like a young plant, like a root growing in dry ground. There was nothing special or impressive about the way he looked, nothing we could see that would cause us to like him. 3 People made fun of him, and even his friends left him. He was a man who suffered a lot of pain and sickness. We treated him like someone of no importance, like someone people will not even look at but turn away from in disgust. 4 The fact is, it was our suffering he took on himself; he bore our pain. But we thought that God was punishing him, that God was beating him for something he did. 5 But he was being punished for what we did. He was crushed because of our guilt. He took the punishment we deserved, and this brought us peace. We were healed because of his pain. 6 We had all wandered away like sheep. We had gone our own way. And yet the Lord put all our guilt on him. 7 He was treated badly, but he never protested. He said nothing, like a lamb being led away to be killed. He was like a sheep that makes no sound as its wool is being cut off. He never opened his mouth to defend himself. 8 He was taken away by force and judged unfairly. The people of his time did not even notice that he was killed.[b] But he was put to death[c] for the sins of his[d] people. 9 He had done no wrong to anyone. He had never even told a lie. But he was buried among the wicked. His tomb was with the rich. 10 But the Lord was pleased with this humble servant who suffered such pain.[e] Even after giving himself as an offering for sin, he will see his descendants and enjoy a long life. He will succeed in doing what the Lord wanted. 11 After his suffering he will see the light,[f] and he will be satisfied with what he experienced. The Lord says, “My servant, who always does what is right, will make his people right with me; he will take away their sins. 12 For this reason, I will treat him as one of my great people. I will give him the rewards of one who wins in battle, and he will share them with his powerful ones. I will do this because he gave his life for the people. He was considered a criminal, but the truth is, he carried away the sins of many. Now he will stand before me and speak for those who have sinned.” Isaias 53 Ang Dating Biblia (1905) (ADB1905) 53 Sinong naniwala sa aming balita? at kanino nahayag ang bisig ng Panginoon? 2 Sapagka't siya'y tumubo sa harap niya na gaya ng sariwang pananim, at gaya ng ugat sa tuyong lupa: walang anyo o kagandahan man; at pagka ating minamasdan siya ay walang kagandahan na mananais tayo sa kaniya. 3 Siya'y hinamak at itinakuwil ng mga tao; isang taong sa kapanglawan, at bihasa sa karamdaman: at gaya ng isa na pinagkublihan ng kanilang mukha ng mga tao, na siya'y hinamak, at hindi natin hinalagahan siya. 4 Tunay na kaniyang dinala ang ating mga karamdaman, at dinala ang ating mga kapanglawan; gayon ma'y ating pinalagay siya na hinampas, sinaktan ng Dios, at dinalamhati. 5 Nguni't siya'y nasugatan dahil sa ating mga pagsalangsang, siya'y nabugbog dahil sa ating mga kasamaan, ang parusa ng tungkol sa ating kapayapaan ay nasa kaniya; at sa pamamagitan ng kaniyang mga latay ay nagsigaling tayo. 6 Tayong lahat na gaya ng mga tupa ay naligaw; tayo ay tumungo bawa't isa sa kaniyang sariling daan; at ipinasan sa kaniya ng Panginoon ang kasamaan nating lahat. 7 Siya'y napighati, gayon man nang siya'y dinalamhati ay hindi nagbuka ng kaniyang bibig; gaya ng kordero na dinadala sa patayan, at gaya ng tupang nasa harap ng mga manggugupit sa kaniya ay pipi, gayon ma'y hindi niya binuka ang kaniyang bibig. 8 Sa pamamagitan ng kapighatian at kapan ay dinala siya: at tungkol sa kaniyang lahi, sino sa kanila ang gumunita na siya'y nahiwalay sa lupain ng buhay? dahil sa pagsalangsang ng aking bayan ay nasaktan siya. 9 At ginawa nila ang kaniyang libingan na kasama ng mga masama, at kasama ng isang lalaking mayaman sa kaniyang kamatayan; bagaman hindi siya gumawa ng pangdadahas, o wala mang anomang karayaan sa kaniyang bibig. 10 Gayon ma'y kinalugdan ng Panginoon na mabugbog siya; inilagay niya siya sa pagdaramdam: pagka iyong gagawin ang kaniyang kaluluwa na pinakahandog dahil sa kasalanan, makikita niya ang kaniyang lahi, pahahabain niya ang kaniyang mga kaarawan, at ang pagkalugod ng Panginoon ay lalago sa kaniyang kamay. 11 Siya'y makakakita ng pagdaramdam ng kaniyang kaluluwa at masisiyahan: sa pamamagitan ng kaniyang kaalaman ay aariing ganap ng aking matuwid na lingkod ang marami; at dadalhin niya ang kanilang mga kasamaan. 12 Kaya't hahatian ko siya ng bahagi na kasama ng dakila, at kaniyang hahatiin ang samsam na kasama ng malakas; sapagka't kaniyang idinulot ang kaniyang kaluluwa sa kamatayan, at ibinilang na kasama ng mga mananalangsang: gayon ma'y dinala niya ang kasalanan ng marami, at namagitan sa mga mananalangsang.
