The Bible for the Ordinary Life

John 14 part 2 Imagine the disciples trying to understand the reason for the Holy Spirit


Listen Later

It's the night before His crucifixion and Jesus is spending the evening giving His farewell speech to His disciples. They don't understand a lot of what He is telling them, but they will in due time. For now, He's laying the groundwork for His departure and the coming Holy Spirit. Through this episode we will try to imagine ourselves as one of the disciples and really ask the question "would we understand it any better". The advantage of hindsight is of course 20/20 vision of what Jesus meant. But let's stop and consider what it might have been like to hear Jesus speak these words for the first time and to try to grasp what the "advocate" or "counselor" was and why He was even needed.
