- The Spirit comes to us when we love Jesus, and obey Him (John 14:15). This is someone who has made Jesus their Savior and LORD.
- The Counselor (Holy Spirit) will be with us forever (John 14:16b). No need to fear Him going anywhere.
- He is the Spirit of truth (as are the Father and Son) (John 14:17a). He will guide us into all truth (John 16:13a). So if we do something contrary to the Bible, it is not the Spirit leading us.
- The world cannot accept Him, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him (John 14:17b). Don't bother trying to explain Him to a non-Christ-follower.
- The Counselor will teach us all things and will remind us of everything Jesus said to us. (John 14:26). No need to worry - if - you're reading the Bible and meditating on it.
- The Spirit will testify about Jesus. (John 15:26). If you have the Spirit, you will be used to testify, whether by word or deed.
- He will convict the world of sin (John 16:8). I really don't need to say anything - unless asked.
- He will tell us what is to come (John 16:13b). Wow!
- He will bring glory to Jesus by taking from Him and making it known to us (John 16:14).

Who is the Holy Spirit?
I am passionately seeking the third person of the Trinity: The Holy Spirit (or Counselor). This week I want to look at who He is.
