This ministry of the Spirit is what he does in and through and by means of you and me!
Jesus was only one person, limited to one place in space. But through the Spirit he is present everywhere his people are found. It is through the disciples (and us now) that Jesus continues his ministry through the Spirit whom he sends to them. It is through our preaching of the gospel and our lives given in love for one another that the Holy Spirit brings conviction to the hearts of people in the world.
We, the Church, are the means by which the Spirit does his work in the world.
