Neither sees nor knows
15”If you love me, you will keep my commandments. 16And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, to be with you forever.17This is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, because he abides with you, and heContinue reading “Neither sees nor knows”

The Spirit of Commandment

The Promise of the Holy Spirit
When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. 2And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting.3Divided tongues, as of fire, appeared among them, and a tongue rested on each of them. 4All of themContinue reading “The Promise of the Holy Spirit”
Peace and Hope
