Promises made”¦are only good when promises are kept. When the Lord God promises anything, you can KNOW it is as good as done! Jesus promised His disciples to send the Counselor from His Father to them. He did just that at Pentecost.

The Holy Spirit”™s Testimony Concerning the Lord Jesus Christ:

John 15:26 tells the following:

  • He is sent to be Counselor to Jesus Christ”™s followers.
  • He was sent from the Father by the Son.
  • He is the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father.
  • He testifies about the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Holy Spirit of God is the Counselor, the Spirit of truth Who testifies about the Lord Jesus to you and to me. How we respond to Him is the key to our relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Disciple”™s Testimony Concerning the Lord Jesus Christ:

(NIV) John 15:27 “And you also must testify, for you have been with me from the beginning.”

(NIV) 1 John 1:1-3 “That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched ““ this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. 2The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us. 3We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.”

Followers of Christ are in an elite circle ““ the testimony of John is personal and firsthand concerning the Lord Jesus. Do you know the Lord Jesus? Really know Him? Knowing about the Lord Jesus is different from knowing Him intimately.

What is your testimony concerning the Lord Jesus Christ in your life?
