As I stated within a prior post on the Holy Trinity, the Holy Spirit will be the 3rd individual in the Trinity, distinct in character however the identical and equal as God. Again, the Holy Trinity is really a mystery and I did attempt to clarify it in that post so you can read it up there for enlightenment.
Within the Word of God (the Bible), the Holy Spirit is known as different names – the Paraclete, the Comforter, the Helper, Breath from the Almighty God, Power from the Highest, Eternal Spirit, Spirit from the Father, Spirit of Christ, Spirit in the Son, Spirit of life and so on and so forth.
When He had nearly completed His mission on earth, our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ told His Apostles in John 14:15-17, “If you love me, you are going to obey my commandments. I will ask the Father (God) and He will give you an additional Helper, who will remain with you forever. He’s the Spirit who reveals the truth about God.
The globe cannot get Him, since it cannot see Him. But you understand Him, since He remains with you and is in you.”
Jesus was referring towards the Holy Spirit here and He made a clear distinction that only people who obey His commandments would receive the Holy Spirit who will reveal the truth about God.
Jesus goes further to say in John 14:18-21, “When I go, you are going to not be left all alone; I will come back to you. Inside a small whilst the globe will see me no much more, but you’ll see me; and since I reside, you also will reside. When that day comes, you will know that I’m inside the Father and that you are in me, just as I am in you.
Whoever accepts my commandments and obeys them is the 1 who loves me. My Father will adore whoever adore me; I as well will really like him and reveal myself to him.”
Once more Jesus is referring towards the Holy Trinity (God the Father, Himself, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit).
We clearly infer from Jesus’ statement that any person who doesn’t obey His commandments does not love Him and His Father (God) loves those who obey Jesus’ commands and Jesus loves and reveals Himself to them.
So the Holy Spirit of God only comes to people who obey Jesus’s commandments. Jesus fulfilled His guarantee of the Holy Spirit to His Apostles on Pentecost Day, ten days after He ascended to Heaven (Acts 2:1-12). The Holy Spirit has guided the Body of Christ (the Church) via the ages, revealing the truth about God till this present day.
We see this in Jesus’ words to His Apostles in John 16:12-15, “I have a lot a lot more to tell you, but now it could be also a lot for you to bear. When, however, the Spirit comes, who reveals the truth about God, He will lead you into all truth. He won’t speak on His personal authority, but He will speak of what He hears, and will inform you of items to come.
He will give me glory, simply because He will take what I say and inform it to you. All that my Father has is mine; that’s why I stated that the Spirit will take what I give Him and inform it to you.”
Certainly, anybody who sincerely obeys Jesus’ commandments would possess the promise in the Holy Spirit as a guide to the truth about God. Those who disobey Jesus’ commandments cannot have the guarantee from the Holy Spirit. These are the ones Jesus refers to as the planet that cannot see or get the Holy Spirit.
How does someone know if she or he has the Holy Spirit in him or her? Is it by claiming to understand God or Jesus Christ? The Word of God clarifies this issue in Galatians five:16-26, “What I say is this: let the Holy Spirit direct your lives, and also you won’t satisfy the desires Anointed man of God human nature.
For what our human nature wants is opposed to what the Spirit desires, and what the Spirit desires is opposed to what our human nature desires. These two are enemies, and this implies that you cannot do what you would like to do. In the event the Spirit leads you, then you definitely usually are not topic for the law.
What human nature does is really plain. It shows itself in immoral, filthy and indecent actions; in worship of idols and witchcraft. Individuals turn out to be enemies and they fight; they become jealous, angry and ambitious. They separate into parties and groups; they are envious, get drunk, have orgies, and do other things like these. I warn you now as I have before: those that do these items is not going to possess the Kingdom of God.
But the Spirit produces really like, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility, and self-control. There is no law against such items as these. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have put to death their human nature with all its passions and desires. The Spirit has provided us life; He must also control our lives. We should not be proud or irritate one another or be jealous of 1 another.”
These qualities in the preceding paragraph would be the fruits of the Holy Spirit that manifest in those that love Christ Jesus and obey His commandments and whom the Holy Spirit will come into their lives.
Dear reader, it is crucial to note right here that our Lord Jesus Christ also loves those that don’t obey His commands, but the really like He has for them is what made Him die on the cross for mankind’s sins to reconcile mankind to God over two,013 years ago. Jesus, who’s God and the creator of every thing in Heaven and on earth knows the beginning from the end.
He knows that any person right here on earth who’s not obeying His commands is living a harmful life and doesn’t possess the Holy Spirit as a guide towards the truth about God. If such individual dies and leaves this earth in sin, that person’s soul ends up in hell FOREVER without any other opportunity for repentance. The chance for repentance is only right here on earth and NOW when we’re still alive.
ONLY people who obey Jesus’ commandments would make it to Heaven once they depart this world since the Holy Spirit will always be with them right here on earth to lead them to the truth about God as Jesus promised and as continues to take place till right now.
Jesus created hell for Satan and his demons but lots of people continue to sin by disobeying Jesus’ commands and die to finish up in eternal torment in hell with Satan. Lots of souls die each and every single day in sin and are presently in hell undergoing torment.
Jesus continues to weep daily because of this really sad truth and in His really like and mercy as our Father He has taken a number of folks to show them the realities of hell with perished souls there in eternal torment and heaven with its astounding beauty and returned these witnesses to earth using a warning to mankind to repent of sins and turn to Him (Jesus) because the ONLY assure of acquiring to heaven.
Satan now continues to laugh because he and his demons are presently tormenting the souls of those who died in sin in hell. Satan will get his personal punishment when hell and death are cast into the lake burning with fire and sulphur, which can be the second death (Revelation 21:8).
As I create this message, this can be an opportunity for you personally, dear reader, and I as we are nonetheless alive to examine our lives cautiously and repent of our sins, turn to Jesus Christ and accept Him as Lord and Saviour of our lives and ask for His Holy Spirit to direct us for the truth about God.
I plead with you to not harden your heart as you read this message. Do not enable Satan to deceive you whilst here on earth. Those that did in the past and have died are regretting it now in hell fire nevertheless it is as well late to repent there. The opportunity to repent is only right here on earth and also the time for you to repent is NOW, not tomorrow or in the future since nobody knows the day the end would come for him or her.
God bless you as you listen to His voice today, accept this message of life, act on it sincerely and share it with others you realize are genuinely in need. May the Lord bless you abundantly as you comply in Jesus’ Mighty name, Amen.
