Promise of the Counselor and Helper

“prior to his arrest jesus made this promise to the disciples, ‘if you love me, you will obey what i command. and i will ask the father, and he will give you another counselor to be with you forever - the spirit of truth. the world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. but you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you . . . . i will not leave you as orphans; i will come to you . . . . on that day you will realize that i am in the father, and you are in me, and i am in you . . . . whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. he who loves me will be loved by my father, and i too will love him and show myself to him.’”

this concluding passage from the first chapter of my book shows the intimate, personal interactive relationship between the holy spirit and the human spirit and soul.
