The Comforter: Our Help In A World Of Discomfort

But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me.  John 15:26

A little of the King James Version for you today as I wanted that word for God's own Spirit: Comforter. John gave to us from the words of Jesus another of those verses where the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit appear together. The mission of two of the Trinity in this verse is to give testimony of the Christ, Jesus. And the Paraclete, to use the Greek term, Who is at once our helper, counselor, and comforter, is sent by our great Lord Jesus to be with us in this world of discomfort. We note also that the Comforter is the Spirit of Truth, fulfilling another need we have in a world of deception. Just how close are these persons of the Trinity? Jesus, who is in 14:6 of John the way, the truth, and the life, sends from the Father the Spirit of Truth to testify of Himself. 

Praise God for His Son and His Spirit!
