Untitled Sermon (6)
test
THE disciples at Ephesus believed in Christ, but “had not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost”; and there are many in the Church to-day who know little, if anything, of the Holy Spirit. We, who are baptized into the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, cannot know too much of, nor too well, the persons and offices of the divine Trinity, in their being and character, and in their relations to ourselves. And, although it is true that less is said in the Bible of the Holy Spirit than of the other persons of the Godhead, for He speaks not of Himself, yet as much may be known of Him.
He it is who reveals the Father and the Son, and thereby also reveals Himself, while His works clearly and continually manifest Him.
In order to do this we must first realize that He is a Person.
Christ manifested God in the flesh so that the divine personality might be known, through the flesh, as that of any other person is known. He said: “Ye believe in God, believe also in me”; “I and my Father are one”; and “He that hath seen me hath seen the Father.”
