SPIRIT AND TRUTH



In the book of John the Comforter, also called the spirit of truth, was promised to those who love Jesus and keep his commandments. Jesus said the spirit of truth will teach us all things. When Jesus spoke with the Samaritan woman at the well he explained that the true worshipers would now worship God, not in a location, but in Spirit and Truth.



Scripture:

The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. Ye worship ye know not what; we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour cometh and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” (John 4:19-24)

If ye love me, keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. (John 14:15-18)



WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED?

We have learned that if we love Jesus and keep his commandments he will give us the Spirit of Truth who will teach us and in this spirit we should worship him.



Our Father appreciates the fact that you are trying. May God’s blessing be upon this

study of His word, Amen.
