"But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth..." (John 16:13a).
During our revival services, Reverend Joel reminded us that the Holy Spirit is the one who reveal the truth of who Jesus is. As is stated later in John 16:13, the Holy Spirit "speaks what he hears": he testifies of Jesus (see John 15:26).
Are you at a point in your life where the truth of who Jesus is eclipses every other claim, every other thought, every other argument? Yes, there are opportunities to ponder a myriad of mysteries. But, as Reverend Joel implied, what's the use of imagining how many angels can sit on the head of a pin? Can such a fact save a soul from destruction? Can such a fact encourage us to stay faithful to the point of death?
The writer to the Hebrews said it well: "Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith" (Hebrews 12:2a).
Lord Jesus, as we gaze into your glorious Light, please cause everything else to dissipate, vanish, fade away. Yes, Lord, all we really want is You. Grace us with Your Presence. Amen.
