S3-77 ELDER'S EXHORTATION (7-02-22)

Watering the message on "Attributes of the Holy Spirit" (6-29-22), Brother Sam emphasized that when Jesus ascended to his Father, he did not leave us comfortless! Jesus said: "I will pray {that} the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever; even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive" (John 14:16-17). The empowerment of God's Spirit enables us to make the changes necessary to serve our heavenly Father. Nevertheless, "quickening" does not absolve us of human responsibility to serve God faithfully and walk in His ways.
