“(S)he who sows obedience to the Spirit will reap what the Spirit gives: eternal life.” (Galatians 6 v 8 The Truth)

At the Father’s wish, the Spirit shows us the gifts of Jesus.

For that person knows by personal experience:

Jesus is Lord;

Jesus is the living Word;

Jesus is truth;

Jesus is new life to us as shown by the Spirit;

For Jesus is holiness, life’s purity, our righteous morality;

Jesus is the perfect Son;

Jesus can be depended upon;

Jesus is our faith’s Alpha;

Jesus is the answer to pray, as made possible by the Spirit;

For Jesus shares His love with us sacramentally;

Jesus is life moving forwards;

Jesus is faith travelling upwards;

Jesus is our outreach;

Jesus is the One we reach as the Spirit assists us;

For Jesus is both God and Man, a mystery unto eternity.

Jesus is although mystery, a reality;

Jesus is our blessed identity;

Jesus lives in us by the Spirit;

Jesus is the power of holy love we inherit when fully open to the Spirit.

For Jesus is the Son of the Most High within the Trinity.

“The mystery of Christ’s nature is undoubtedly great: He appeared in a human body and was shown to be totally acceptable to God when the Spirit came upon Him. He was in the company of angels and has been preached to the nations. People in the world believed Him to be God’s Son, before He returned to the glory of heaven.” (1 Timothy 3 v 16 The Truth)

“ ‘I, I AM the Resurrection and the Life. Anyone who believes in Me will live eternally, even though (s)he dies physically. Whoever believe in Me, because (s)he continues to believe in Me will never die eternally. Do you believe this’?” (John 11 v 25, 26 the Truth)

Please pray.
