Famous Last Words
Jesus
gets to point
the gift
the promise
that He has for them:
John 16:5–7 (ESV)
But now I am going to him who sent me… But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart.
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.
Helper
Yes,
I’m leaving
But,
Most importantly
I got you covered...
Send The Helper
Something/someone
better than my presence:
The omni-presence
of the Holy Spirit!
Jesus was not
omni-present.
“Just prior to His leaving His disciples for the heavenly courts, Jesus encouraged them with the promise of the Holy Spirit.
This promised blessing, if claimed by faith, would bring all other blessings in its train, and it is to be given liberally to the people of God.” AUCR April 1, 1898

Gift of the Spirit.
For 3.5 Chapter
Jesus repeats:
“I’m leaving.”
“Don’t Worry.”
“I’m giving you a gift.”
“The Holy Spirit.”
Still true today.
Greatest Gift
Navigate This Time
Holy Spirit.
I awake at ten o’clock.
I cannot sleep.
The question urges itself upon my mind, Why do we not plead more earnestly for the impartation of the Holy Spirit.
If we had the Spirit, we should not be in such great perplexity.
The impartation of the Spirit brings in its train all other blessings.
Why do we not seek for this great blessing, which we need daily, and which we may have for the asking?
