Jesus taught that the Holy Spirit is a person, not a force. On several occasions, Jesus referred to the Holy Spiritas “he” or “him.” For example, in John 14:17, Jesus said, “Even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you” (emphasis added). J...
Like the Father and the Son, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit is in an eternal relationship with the other members of the Trinity (e.g. Matt. 28:19; 1 Cor. 12:4-6; Eph. 4:4-6; 1 Pet. 1:2). Simultaneously, each member has a will that is unique and united to the other two. In this context, God’s will refers to what he directly causes or allows to happen...
Luke records a time when Jesus went into the synagogue in Nazareth and read from Isaiah 61:1-2. “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of ...
Jesus called the third member of the Trinity “the Spirit of truth.” In John 14:17, he says, “Even the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, for he dwells with you and will be in you” (cf. John 16:13, emphasis added). Truth is an attribute of all three members of the Trinity, includi...
The last statement Jesus makes in John 15:26 partly reveals an important role that the Holy Spirit has. In summary, the Spirit confirms who Jesus isand what he says. “But when the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness about me” (ESV). Other translations say the...
After Jesus performed an exorcism, the Pharisees concluded, “It is only by Beelzebul, the prince of demons, that this man casts out demons” (Matt. 12:24, ESV). They irrationally argued that Jesus used the power of Satan to drive out one of his own evil underlings. Rather than following the evidence for what it revealed about Jesus’ true identity, t...
Jesus not only taught about the nature of the Holy Spirit and their joint ministry, but he also taught what the Spirit does in the lives of believers. Here are three examples: 1. Jesus said the Holy Spirit empowers believers: “And behold, I am sending the promise of my Father upon you. But stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on h...
All three members of the Trinity participate in the salvation of sinners. The Father planned it; Jesus earned it; and the Holy Spiritapplies it through convicting, illuminating, and igniting faith. In John 3:5, Jesus tells Nicodemus, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God” (cf. Jo...
In John 14:16, Jesus said, “And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper, to be with you forever.” The Helper is the Holy Spirit. In response to Jesus’ request, the Father sent the Holy Spirit at Pentecost (Acts 2). The Greek word translated as “Helper” is parakletos. New Testament Greek scholar, William Mounce, writes, “When Jesu...
