The Spirit of Truth
-If ye love me, keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.. I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. - John 14 :15-20
The Role of the Holy Spirit
And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. - John 16: 8-15
Justification Is By Deeds of Faith
The word justify means literally "to make just" or "to make right."... Justification is the process by which "a sinner" becomes "a just person"... from the state of unrighteousness and child of the devil to the state of holiness and child of God. Repentance,Regeneration, Transformation come together in Baptism (Rom 6:4) After we repent and forsake our sins will the process of sanctification and Justification begin. It is by faith in Jesus, by Grace, as a free gift of God without any good work we are saved the first time we come to God..(Rom 3:25); it is a gift by God... A person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we who have believed in Christ Jesus, the justifier of him which believeth in Him (Rom. 3:26). It is not by works of the law because by works of the law shall no one be justified (Gal.3:16). To be justified by faith, it must be a faith that obeys whole heartedly a faith that works by love; a faith that walks in the steps of Abraham, a faith that is based on deeds of faith which upholds and establishes the Laws of God (Rom 3:31; James 2:26). Since all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, we are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus. - Romans 3:24
The Coming of the Holy Spirit
The Holy Ghost came down at the time of a solemn feast, because there was then a great concourse of people to Jerusalem from all parts of the country, and the proselytes from other countries, which would make it the more public, and the fame of it to be spread the sooner and further, which would contribute much to the propagating of the gospel into all nations. The day of Pentecost marks the beginning of the Christian Church. Pentecost was a miraculous event marked by (1) the suddenness of its coming the wind that filled the place and revealed the presence of the Holy Spirit; (3) the tongues of fire, signifying the preaching of the good news to all nations; and (4) the fire, which symbolized the power and zeal given to those who obeyed Christ in taking the gospel to the ends of the earth. Pentecost (Greek pentekoste), meaning “fiftieth day,” was celebrated on the seventh day of Sivan (May-June), fifty days after the Passover. It was one of the three festivals at which all males were supposed to congregate. Pentecost was also known as the festival of weeks, the day of the first fruits and the festival of harvest. - Lev. 23:15, 1
