The Spirit's Special Programme is to exercise restraint in this world on behalf of the church:
1. The Holy Spirit restrains evil men who resist the preaching of the gospel. - Acts 4 v 17: Threats from man - Acts 4 v 23-30: The believer's prayer for boldness - Acts 4 v 31: The Holy Spirit acting
2. The Holy Spirit restrains evil in the world by opening new regions for the expansion of the church. - The Holy Spirit gives the power to evangelise (Acts 1 v 8) - The Spirit works to evangelise both: - The Jewish world (Romans 11) - The Gentile world (Acts 10 v 44 & Acts 13 v 1-2)
3. The Holy Spirit restrains evil in the world by forming one body of believers made up of both Jew and Gentile (the church). - John 16 v 12 - Ephesians 2 v 13 - 16 - Ephesians 3 v 1 - 6
