The Holy Spirit – Jesus’ Partnerनमूना
The Holy Spirit – Jesus’ Partner
THE HOLY SPIRIT – JESUS’ SUBSTITUTE ON EARTH
MAIN IDEAS
• JESUS promises His followers that although He will return to heaven, they will not be left alone because the Father will send them the HOLY SPIRIT, who will take JESUS’ place.
• The HOLY SPIRIT is sent to the followers of JESUS, but the world will be unaware of His presence and His works. Those who don’t receive Him in their lives will be like orphans.
• The HOLY SPIRIT will ensure the continuity of the work of the KINGDOM on Earth.
• Through the HOLY SPIRIT, the followers of JESUS benefit from the presence of the HOLY TRINITY.
With JESUS’ departure from Earth getting closer, He prepares the disciples by explaining that although He will no longer be physically present, they will never be alone. After He leaves, the Father will send a „surrogate” who will always be with them. The HOLY SPIRIT will take JESUS’ place, as He is, like JESUS, a Divine Person of the HOLY TRINITY. If JESUS were physically with the disciples, the HOLY SPIRIT would be in them as a spiritual presence. JESUS also tells them that the HOLY SPIRIT will not be perceived, understood, or received by worldly people because, since they cannot see Him physically, they will not be able to know Him. The coming of the HOLY SPIRIT does not exclude the presence of JESUS with us; on the contrary, along with the HOLY SPIRIT, JESUS also returns to us, but in a spiritual, not physical sense, as does the Father Himself.
The mission of the HOLY SPIRIT will be to help them understand the mysteries of the KINGDOM, especially since they had already heard many things from JESUS but could not comprehend spiritually. The coming of the HOLY SPIRIT will keep them connected with the HOLY TRINITY and will help them fulfill all that JESUS taught them, which is vital for the inheritance of the KINGDOM.
Knowing these things, do not be content to merely listen to various opinions and interpretations of people who lecture you about God. Instead, read the Bible yourself and allow the HOLY SPIRIT to teach you exactly what you need so that you get to know JESUS, and by faith in Him, you are saved.
