7 Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you. 8 And when he comes, he will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment: 9 concerning sin, because they do not believe in me; 10 concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see me no longer; 11 concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.John 16:7-1121 Therefore put away all filthiness and rampant wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. 22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. 23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. 24 For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. 25 But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing.James 1:21-25CONVICTION AND COMFORT7 Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you.

How important is the Holy Spirit to you? What do you know about Him? He is important to you, whether you are an unbeliever or a believer. He is the one knocking on the door of the unbeliever, trying to get them to come to Jesus. He is the one who convicts you, challenges you, guides you, teaches you, and shows Christ in your life, if you are a believer. Have a listen...

What if there's a divine "olive leaf" of peace from God, revealing profound truths about Christ, our eternal potential, and how to prepare for His glorious return? This video unlocks D&C 88! Summary: Doctrine & Covenants 88, often called the "Olive Leaf" plucked from the Tree of Paradise, is a comprehensive revelation offering God's message of peace and preparation for the last days. This video delves into its multifaceted teachings: The Light of Christ (88:3-13, 40): Discover Jesus Christ as the omnipresent "light of truth," the "other Comforter," and the very "life, law, and power" that governs all things in the universe—from the sun and moon to the earth itself [cite: 88:6-13]. This light enlightens our understandings and helps us see everything else, truly revealing that "light cleaveth unto light" [cite: 88:40]. The Spirit and the Body (88:14-20, 28-31): Learn the profound truth that "the spirit and the body are the soul of man" [cite: 88:15], emphasizing the vital importance of the physical resurrection for a fullness of joy. We explore how even "Mother Earth" will be sanctified and crowned with glory, prepared for celestial beings, and how our resurrected bodies will be quickened by the glory we are willing to receive [cite: 88:17-20, 28-31]. Willingness to Receive (88:32-33): Understand that God gives according to our willingness. We often limit the infinite goodness of God by our own unwillingness to open our arms and hearts to His gifts, preventing us from rejoicing fully in both the gift and the Giver [cite: 88:32-33]. The Power of Law (88:22-26, 34-39): Explore how divine law governs, preserves, perfects, and sanctifies all things. Only by abiding in celestial law can we abide celestial glory. The earth itself serves as an example, fulfilling the measure of its creation by obeying celestial law [cite: 88:25-26, 34]. Every kingdom in the universe operates by its own specific laws, emphasizing that there's no escaping the principle of law [cite: 88:36-39]. A Universe of Other Sheep (88:45-62): Gain an expanded vision of God's vast creations. Through a profound parable, learn that Christ not only created and redeems "worlds without number" but also visits them all in "his hour, and in his time, and in his season" [cite: 88:56-58]. This highlights God's personal attention to all His children across the immensity of space. House of Glory (88:87-120): Discover the Lord's blueprint for preparing for the Second Coming. This includes a call to solemn assembly, diligently seeking wisdom from "best books" by study and faith, and organizing and establishing a "house of prayer, a house of fasting, a house of faith, a house of learning, a house of glory, a house of order, a house of God" – ultimately referring to the Temple and its transformative power [cite: 88:117-120]. The School of the Prophets (88:77-81, 122-133): Understand God's command to teach one another diligently the doctrine of the kingdom, encompassing both religious and secular knowledge. This "celestial curriculum" prepares us to "magnify the calling" whereunto we are called and to warn our neighbors. The video concludes with the beautiful order of the School of the Prophets, emphasizing that true education is a relationship built on prayer, salutation, and an "unchangeable" bond of charity [cite: 88:77-81, 122-133]. This video is a powerful invitation to embrace God's expansive truths and prepare ourselves for the glory that awaits. Call-to-Action: Which aspect of D&C 88 resonated most deeply with you?

When you're stuck in porn addiction, it often feels like there's a war going on inside your own mind.One part of you wants to be strong, productive, loving, and aligned with your values. The other part just wants comfort, ease, and escape. Most recovery programs tell you to kill off the "bad" part. To deny it, starve it, or fight it.But what if that approach is actually fueling your addiction?In this episode, I'm going to show you a completely different path—one rooted in psychological integration, spiritual clarity, and masculine leadership. We'll break down why you keep relapsing despite your best efforts, and why your inner war is the real reason you're stuck.You'll learn how to apply the Internal Family Systems (IFS) framework to porn addiction recovery, using what I call “archetypal parts”—the Achiever, the Comforter, the Dreamer, the General, and more. These parts of you aren't evil—they're trying to help. But until you learn to lead them instead of fight or suppress them, you'll keep falling back into the same old cycles.

(This podcast was previously recorded and published on May 10, 2020)   Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ...    When God works in our lives, miracles often happen before our eyes.  We can actually see the working of God as the way before us is prepared. And God even plants HIS own desires into our hearts so we go in HIS way while thinking it is really "our desire."   On this podcast are two examples of this.   ****   God says:  I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:   Isaiah 45:2   ***   When God speaks to us today, HE usually speaks through HIS Spirit by bringing to our minds a thought or idea which leads us in what we should do this at this point in time.   John 14:26  Jesus says:  But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in MY name, HE shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.   John 16:13  Howbeit when HE, the Spirit of truth, is come, HE will guide you into all truth: for HE shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever HE shall hear, that shall HE speak: and HE will shew you things to come.   ***   Psalm 37:4   Delight thyself also in the Lord: and HE shall give thee the desires of thine heart.   God is fully able to put HIS OWN DESIRE into our heart so we have a "desire" to go in the way HE is leading us.   Two examples happening simultaneously:   In 2018:  Pam Padgett, who lives in Colorado (USA), had a desire to remodel her house, changing a downstairs "study" into a bedroom and adding a shower to her downstairs' 1/2 bath.  She prayerfully pursued doing this and finished the project by February 2019.   Around this same time in 2018, I began to realize I could not continue living alone at my house in Texas as I had been doing for the past 18 years.  I could still drive my car and get my food but "somehow" I just knew this wasn't going to continue.   (John 16:13   Jesus says:  when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth ... and He will shew you things to come.)   Then on December 6, 2018, I fell at my house in Texas.  I broke hip and left wrist.  After surgery, I spent 2 1/2 months in rehabilitation hospitals in Texas.  I knew I would not be able to live alone as I had been doing in past years.   God worked it out for me to move directly from the hospital in Texas to Pam Padgett's home in Colorado where a bedroom and bath downstairs had been prepared "for me".  (God went before me and fixed everything for me ... making the unworkable parts of Pam's house to be workable for me just before I needed them!)   The room at Pam's house was just exactly according to the desire that had been put into my heart earlier in 2018.   And it all reminded me of the following scripture.   II Kings 4  (Concerning the prophet, Elisha)   8 And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread.   9 And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually.   10 Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.   11 And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber, and lay there.   (In 2020, I started my second year at Pam's house.  Pam is a godly woman, calling on God and following the plans given her by God by HIS Spirit.)   At the time of this recording in 2020, I'm 82 years old.  For more than 40 years, I have tried to follow God and I really had not considered what would happen to me when I was old.  It is obvious to me that God made a provision for me far above that which I could have planned for myself.   Just follow after those scriptures God gives you and HE will get you to the place you need to be!  All we need to do is follow after verses of scripture given by the Holy Spirit.  These scriptures are like stepping stones leading us through the land.

Job 3-27, 32-37 - The narrative opening of Job concludes with 3 of Job's friends arriving to comfort him. At first, they employ a quiet and compassionate ministry of presence. However, in chapter 3, Job's speech kicks off a series of cyclical dialogues that reveal just how short-sighted, falsely rationalizing, and insensitive the friends' verbal attempts at comfort are. In chapters 16-17, Job gives them his assessment: they are "miserable comforters" who simply can't provide either the full answers or the existential comfort that Job needs in his agony. But in his longing, Job gestures at the possibility of One to come who will embody perfect truth and perfect compassionate presence--the true Comforter, Friend, Lord and Savior. A sermon by Cameron Heger. [Part 2 of our series "God, Goodness & Suffering: The Wisdom of the Book of Job"]

Have you ever felt lost trying to understand the Book of Revelation? Or wondered how God guides us, step by step, even when we feel like "little children"? This video reveals profound answers from Doctrine & Covenants 77-80! Summary: This comprehensive lesson unpacks the rich teachings of Doctrine & Covenants 77-80, offering insights into God's methods of revelation, personal development, and church organization. We begin by tackling the symbolic language of the Book of Revelation (D&C 77), exploring the meaning behind the "sea of glass," "four beasts," and the significance of "eyes" (knowledge) and "wings" (agency). Discover the purpose of the seven seals and the identity of the angels, including Elias, who gathers Israel and places the "seal of the living God" upon the foreheads of the faithful. Next, we delve into the practicalities of building Zion (D&C 78) through the establishment of the United Firm (later the United Order). Learn how this organization regulates the "storehouse for the poor," fosters "equality in the bonds of heavenly things," and prepares God's people to "stand independent" amidst tribulation. This section emphasizes the crucial role of commandments, councils, and unbreakable covenants in achieving unity and protecting against spiritual blindness. We then focus on personal growth (D&C 78), understanding that while we may often feel like "little children," God patiently leads us along, knowing we "cannot bear all things now". This highlights the importance of receiving all things with thankfulness and becoming "faithful and wise stewards". Finally, we explore the sacred nature of mission calls (D&C 79-80). Whether serving abroad or at home, we are assured that "it mattereth not, for ye cannot go amiss" as we declare the things we have heard, believe, and know to be true. This process of gaining testimony, coupled with the companionship of the Holy Ghost, empowers us to fulfill our divine assignments.

THE HOLY SPIRIT SPEAKS (Acts 2:4-24) We certainly have seen a full list of Biblical doctrine in the messages over the last few weeks.  For we have seen the disciples wait on the Holy Spirit, and then we have seen them regenerated by the Holy Spirit, baptized by the Holy Spirit, sealed by the Holy Spirit, gifted by the Holy Spirit, anointed by the Holy Spirit, and then filled with the Holy Spirit, when it arrived with a display of awesome sound and awesome sight.  The disciples went up into that upper room a group of individuals, and then came down as members of one body, changed by the Holy Spirit into new creations as the body of Christ. We continue the same pattern this week as we get to see the Holy Spirit speak through believers who have surrendered to the will of God, who are now filled with the Holy Spirit and are allowing Him to work through them.   Now, I believe that if you were to ask most lost people and, unfortunately, a great many believers, if the Holy Spirit had ever spoken to them, the answer would be “No” and then they would give you this look like maybe you were crazy, or in need of some serious counseling.  In fact, most people don't even believe the Holy Spirit exists.  But, of those groups that do believe that the Holy Spirit of God exists, many think of Him as only a mystical force or energy that moves around the world like wisp of wind.  Now, it is certainly true that the Holy Spirit does have force and energy, but He is also a Person, just as is the Father, and the Son, and one of the characteristics of a person is that they speak. Since this is true, what does the Holy Spirit say?  Jesus gave us the answer to that question when He announced the coming of the Comforter.  He tells us that the Holy Spirit testifies of Him.  He tells us that Jesus is alive, that Jesus loves you, and that Jesus died for your sins.  But, there is much more. Click on the play button to hear a message on what the Holy Spirit has to say to you, and through you.  It is a message that will embolden you to share the gospel message of Jesus Christ.

No heart, however broken, needs any balm but Jesus to work its perfect cure. Sorrows, which like Noah's flood, drown all, are soon assuaged by a word from his lips. Get him and keep him, O bruised and bleeding heart, and thou art healed. For broken hearts the broken-hearted Savior died, and for them he lives and pleads. Look to him, mourner, and the black horror of despair shall end.

This week's message dives deep into the reality of encountering the Holy Spirit—not just as a comforting presence, but as a God who challenges, equips, and sends. Dr. David Wilkinson, who holds doctorates in both physics and theology, brings a unique lens to Pentecost and the person of the Holy Spirit. With warmth, wisdom, and global perspective, he explores how the Spirit is not merely an abstract idea or a reserved experience for the ultra-spiritual, but the personal presence of God with us—here and now. In his message, Dr. Wilkinson makes four key observations: Encountering the Holy Spirit is encountering the personal God. The Spirit is not an impersonal force but the personal presence of God who longs to be known and experienced by us. Encountering the Holy Spirit is uncomfortable. The Spirit doesn't just console; He convicts. The Holy Spirit disturbs our complacency, pushes us beyond comfort, and calls us into transformation. Encountering the Holy Spirit pushes us into mission. From the very first Pentecost, the Spirit's presence is tied to witness. We are empowered not for private spirituality but for public love and bold mission. Encountering the Holy Spirit is for all. No one is excluded. The Spirit is not limited by age, background, status, or culture. This is the God who pours Himself out on all flesh. Dr. Wilkinson also encouraged us to live in “holy anticipation,” making room for the Spirit not only in our services, but in our homes, relationships, and witness to the world. Discussion Questions What's one way your view of the Holy Spirit has changed or deepened after this message? Have you ever felt “uncomfortable” because of something the Spirit was leading you to do or confront? In what ways do you see the Holy Spirit calling you into mission in your everyday life? Who in your life needs to hear that the Holy Spirit is for them too?

KEEPING YOUR SPIRITUAL FIRE BURNING, PART II (Acts 2:1-4) If we are to live the victorious Christian life, then we must have the spiritual fire of God's Holy Spirit burning brightly in our lives.  We are absolutely powerless to be in God's will without the Holy Spirit.   Fire is a symbol of the Holy Spirit: It spreads: Fire begins small, but it can devour a forest or destroy a city. The convicting power of the Holy Spirit begins as small spark in the heart of a lost person, and then it spreads, from person to person as the new believer tells of his wonderful salvation. It burns:  Everything fire touches is transformed into fire.  The fire of the Holy Spirit transforms your old sinful nature into one that is righteous before God.   It purges: Fire sterilizes and kills germs, disease, and all impurities.  The Holy Spirit convicts the lost person of the sin in their lives, baptizes them into the body of Christ, and purifies them with the blood of Christ. It illuminates: We take for granted the light that comes from the flip of switch, yet for thousands of years, fire was man's only source of artificial light.  It allowed men to work and walk in a dark world.  In the same manner, believers walk in a world dark with sin.  It is the Holy Spirit living in their hearts that speaks to them, provides discernment to them, and illuminates the mind of Christ for them. It warms:  Fire provides heat and comfort in a world full of cold and ice.  Jesus promised the disciples a Comforter.  The Holy Spirit is the Comforter to the believer in a cold, hard, world that has no love for them or their faith.  He comforts us when we are in trials.  He empowers us when we need Him most.  He enables us to live the Christian life. It smolders:  Men can resist and quench ordinary fire, but the fire of the Holy Spirit can never be put out.  Once the fire of the Holy Spirit is in your heart it will never leave you.  But, you can make it inoperative in your life.  If you allow unrepented sin in your life, it will smolder quietly in the heart of the believer, ignored, and then suddenly begin to spread again.  Click on the play button to hear a message on the four things that you must do to keep the spiritual fire burning in your life.   This is a live recording of The Master's Class Bible Study at LifeChange Church Wichita, KS. Amen.

The word "gospel" means "good news.” While we refer to the first four books of the New Testament as "the Gospels," there is really only one gospel. From the moment angels heralded the good news of Jesus' birth to His ascension into heaven—where He promised the coming of a Comforter—these four accounts together illuminate the greatest story ever told.In contrast, our world today often feels overwhelmed by bad news. We don't know whose version of the bad news we can even trust. Yet, amidst the chaos, we know God's Word is true and it's forever settled in heaven. It will be standing firm when all else has fallen and failed. We can be grateful that His Word is unchanging, and that it brings us the ultimate GOOD NEWS.Have you applied the gospel to your own life? Send us your testimony, telling how the good news of Jesus Christ has impacted you. Nojokinexp@gmail.com

Jesus Gave His Followers the Holy Spirit to Walk with Them in Their Personal Relationship with God MESSAGE SUMMARY: Isaiah tells us about Jesus Followers' communications with the Holy Spirit in Isaiah 30:21: "And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, ‘This is the way, walk in it,' when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left.". We know, from the New Testament, that Jesus Followers are given the Holy Spirit to walk with them -- "a voice behind you". Since the Holy Spirit takes up residence in you, the way the Lord speaks to you is through the inward witness of the Holy Spirit -- the Spirit will speak, and you will know that it is the Lord. In John 14:26, Jesus reminds us about His promise, to His followers, of the “Helper” (Holy Spirit): “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.”. Additionally, in John 16-7, Jesus tells us that not only will the Holy Spirit be your “Helper”, the Holy Spirit will be your “Comforter”: “Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.".     TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, I now take a deep breath and stop. So often I miss your hand and gifts in my life because I am preoccupied and anxious. Grant me the power to pause each day and each week to simply rest in your arms of love. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 132). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, Because of who I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be driven by Hatred. Rather, I will abide in the Lord's Love. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5).

In this powerful message, we're reminded of the ever-present nature of the Holy Spirit in our lives. The central theme revolves around John 14:16, where Jesus promises to send the Comforter who will never leave us. We're challenged to move beyond seeing the Holy Spirit as just an occasional visitor or emotional experience, but rather as a constant companion who abides within us. The message draws an interesting parallel between the Holy Spirit appearing as a dove at Jesus' baptism and as fire on Pentecost, emphasizing that before He was fire, He was peace. This imagery encourages us to seek the peace that passes all understanding in our daily lives, especially in times of turmoil. The speaker's experiences at Ima's Home in the Philippines serve as a powerful testament to the transformative power of the Holy Spirit, even in the lives of those with no prior exposure to Pentecostal traditions. This message is deeply relevant to our faith journey, urging us to trust God completely, to give Him our burdens, and to live in the peace and power of the Holy Spirit every day.

What does it truly mean to receive God's witness? This profound teaching delves into the mysterious relationship between the believer and the indwelling Holy Spirit, revealing how God's presence transforms us from within.The journey begins with an exploration of Jesus as our Advocate (Parakletos) and Comforter—terms used exclusively by John the Apostle. Through careful examination of John's Gospel, we discover that Jesus himself promised to return to his disciples through the Holy Spirit: "I will not leave you comfortless, I will come to you." This revelation challenges common trinitarian understandings and unveils a deeper truth: when we receive the Holy Spirit, we receive Jesus himself.At the heart of this message lies a powerful covenant principle—God's promises are conditional. "If you love me, keep my commandments, and I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter." This pattern is evident throughout Scripture, from Genesis to Revelation. God requires something of us before fulfilling His promise to pour out His Spirit, specifically a broken and contrite heart that sincerely wants transformation.The baptism in the Holy Spirit serves as God's divine witness and confirmation. When controversy arose in Acts 15 about Gentile believers, Peter settled the matter by pointing to God's witness: "God, who knows the heart, bore them witness by giving them the Holy Spirit." This indwelling presence empowers believers to be true witnesses of Christ, speaking not from human knowledge but by the Spirit of prophecy.Ultimately, receiving God's witness transforms us from merely talking about Jesus to manifesting His power. It shifts our focus from seeking human validation to resting in God's approval. It also fulfills God's eternal desire to tabernacle with His people, not in temples made with hands, but in human hearts wholly surrendered to Him.Are you seeking the witness that only comes from above? God promises to be found by those who seek Him with their whole heart. Start by surrendering completely to His will, and watch as He pours out His Spirit to transform you from within."Message Our Father's Heart a Question or Response"Support the showThank you so much for listening and sharing with others!

Today,we're focusing on verses 14–16, which say, "When the hour had come, He,Jesus, sat down, and the twelve apostles with Him. Then He said to them, 'Withfervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.For I say to you, I will no longer eat of it until it is fulfilled in thekingdom of God.'" Most Bible scholars believe that the following verses17–20, which describe the institution of the Lord's Supper, take place at theend of the supper, so we'll come back to those verses. Toget the full glimpse of what is taking place we remember that that it is Thursdayevening, which would have been the Jewish Friday, because sundown begins thenext day for the Jewish people. We also believe these events took place in theupper room in the city of Jerusalem. Whenever I have visited Israel we always goto this location I Jerusalem, not the same building, but an upper room where wetake the Lord's Supper with our tour group. Webelieve that's what takes place in verses 17–20. But before Jesus institutedthe Lord's Supper, the Lord has the Jewish Passover supper with His disciples. Rememberthat Jesus sent Peter and John ahead to prepare for this supper. The lamb hasbeen slaughtered and roasted. Some tell us that the lamb was roasted with apomegranate stick stuck through the middle and another crossway through thelamb, then roasted over the fire for the Passover meal—a picture of the crossof Christ, suffering on a cross, crucified for our sins and your sins. Inverse 14, it says, "When the hour had come," and we've talkedabout the hour that Jesus knew would be on that day, an hour that He would goto a cross and suffer. During this time, the Passover supper takes place inthis upper room. If you want to read the details of what was said in the upperroom, go to John chapters 13, 14, 15, 16, and possibly even chapter 17, whereJesus prays His High Priestly Prayer. We know that prayer could have takenplace in the upper room or on the way to Gethsemane when He left, because John18:1 says, “When Jesus had spoken these words, He went out with His disciplesover the Brook Kidron, where there was a garden, which He and His disciplesentered.” Somethingelse to notice in John chapter 13: the first thing Jesus did when they enteredthe room, as the host of the Passover dinner, was kiss each of the disciples,which means He would have kissed Judas, whom He knew would betray Him. Somebelieve Judas sat on His left and John on His right, as described in John12:23. In the upper room, Jesus washes the disciples' feet giving them anexample of humility. Which apparently the disciples didn't learn from it. Becauselater, after the Passover meal, the disciples argue over who's going to begreatest in the kingdom (Luke 22:24-30).  InJohn 14, Jesus tells the disciples not to let their hearts be troubled and givesthem the promise of heaven, the promise that He will come again, and thepromise of the Holy Spirit. In John 15, Jesus gives the message of abiding inHim—He is the vine, and we are the branches. In John 16, He goes into detailabout the Holy Spirit, the Comforter who will come and be with them. Jesusknows the hour has come and says, “I will no longer eat of it until it isfulfilled in the kingdom of God."(v.16). Jesus no doubt said this because He knew this Passover time would fulfillall the Old Testament scriptures of the Passover Lamb. Jesus, that PassoverLamb, is the last Passover. In verses 17–20, we see the institution of theLord's Supper, which is now left for us, the church. Theseare very interesting scriptures. I trust you will get a glimpse into thesuffering of our Lord and understand what He did for you and me in a specialand unique way. Godbless!

Send us a textThe Holy Spirit is essential to the existence and reality of the church. Jesus makes this truth clear to his apostles in the Upper Room just hours before his arrest and an execution o the cross. John 14 records Jesus promise to return to the disciples after he goes away. His first return was his post resurrection appearances and after he return to the Father he promises to send the Helper, the Comforter who is the Holy Spirit. John 14:18-24 contains the great truth of the Tri-unity of God and the essential ministry of the Holy Spirit to make the ones believing in Jesus a dwelling place of God. By the Holy Spirit Jesus said "will come to him and make our home with him."Bible Insights with Wayne ConradContact: 8441 Hunnicut Rd Dallas, Texas 75228email: Att.

Acts 1:2 IdentityThe Holy Spirit will now be the identity who moves through the earth and everyone who comes in contact with him is trying to figure out who he is and who they are relative to him.  Now he is the Jesus identity fully present.  This is the handoff.Giving instructions through the Holy Spirit If Jesus is with them and showing them convincing proofs he is alive, why is the Holy Spirit mentioned here as the agent of instruction?  Isn't Jesus himself instructing them?  Is this a combination of Jesus speaking and the Spirit affirming in their hearts?  This is a very curious statement. Couple this with Jesus' command for them to wait on the Holy Spirit and it becomes even more curious. The Spirit is present and active but not fully present and active or as present and active as He will be when Pentecost comes. This brief period of time must be like a turnover of command on a ship. Both captains are present at once but the outgoing is giving power and authority to the incoming.  What could be the reason(s) for this?  Perhaps it is so the disciples are ready to recognize the Spirit when he comes. They are getting both voices at one time and can hear that Jesus and the Spirit speak the same language - have one voice. Maybe this is the burning experienced by the disciples on the way to Emmaus when Jesus was opening the Scriptures to them.  Was this "turnover" of command a new way of being led by Jesus who had only followed the Father's leading before the resurrection?  Now the Spirit is leading the risen Jesus and so he is experiencing what his followers must experience after he leaves. This would complete his identification with us who will be led through the Holy Spirit and he will completely understand what it is like to be a Christian dependent upon the Comforter.Acts 1:3Kingdom After 30+ years and a brutal separation from God the Father, Jesus the Son is not in a hurry to get home. This is counterintuitive. The work is done - he said so himself on the cross (John 19:30). Why 40 days more?  Whatever it is you'd think it must be pretty important to delay his return to heaven.  But we do not get the inside story on Jesus's 40 day seminar. We only get the table of contents as it were. He proves his identity beyond their doubts and he teaches about the kingdom.  What can we make of this?  Knowing that Jesus is alive is essential - He offers many convincing proofs. Knowing about a new administration is essential - it is the only subject Jesus teaches. What we know is that Jesus is alive and a new kingdom is either in place or coming or both. This must lead to the conclusion that Jesus's command for his followers to wait upon the Holy Spirit must have something to do with both his revealed, resurrection-type life and the kingdom. Holy Spirit is the kingdom come not just as an administrator of life like human kings but as the indestructible life that enters the heart of believers and sets up an internal administration. A life like Jesus's life.

God is advancing His Kingdom across the whole world, His power is behind it, and He uses His people to do it. But we are not alone. We have received His power through the Holy Spirit—the Helper and the Comforter—to carry out this work.

Another Comforter - 8AM

"The Comforter who has come instead of Christ, must have vouchsafed to come in the same sense in which Christ came; I mean, that He has come, not merely in the way of gifts, or of influences, or of operations, as He came to the Prophets, for then Christ's going away would be a loss, and not a gain, and the Spirit's presence would be a mere pledge, not an earnest; but He comes to us as Christ came, by a real and personal visitation."
