SCRIPTURE
JOHN 14:15–31
BACKGROUND & CONTEXT
While the Trinity will always be a mystery to us on this side of eternity, the Holy Spirit may be the most mysterious part of the Trinity. In this passage, Jesus calls the Spirit, another Helper, and the Spirit of truth. The word “helper” here can be translated as “comforter” and means called alongside to assist. This is an excellent image to picture—the Holy Spirit comes alongside each believer and assists them in living in the truth
