Syst Theol Lecture 23-25

The document summarizes key points from lectures 23-25 on theological topics including regeneration, indwelling of the Holy Spirit, sealing, baptism of the Spirit, and position in Christ.

Sealing refers to God's possession and preservation of believers for his purposes. Baptism of the Spirit places believers into union with Christ at salvation. The position in Christ means believers have a new eternal position in him and are in his service as ministers.
