EVERYTHING IS CHANGING

John 7:38-39
“He that believeth on me, as the scripture has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living w
ater. (But this he spake of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
John 13:31
“Therefore, when he (Judas) was gone out, Jesus said, ‘Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.'”
 
In these verses from John’s Gospel we read of a change which could only happen after the death of Christ. The coming of the Holy Spirit. In Chapters 14-16 of John’s gospel, called by some commentators “The Holy Spirit Discourse”, Jesus explains some of what is about to happen and happen quickly. For proper understanding of His words in these chapters the reader must be made aware of a few other scriptures. Otherwise confusion or even worse, improper understanding of these important truths may occur.

First we must know that men today are three part beings. In 1 Thessalonians 5:23 we read, “And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” This verse clearly identifies that we are spirit, we have a soul and we live in a body. Other scriptures agree to this truth but the point is clearly made here. Understanding not only three parts but the respective function of each one is important. To live in this earth we need a body. To reason, think and respond emotionally to life we need our soul or mind, will and emotions. Our spirit is the life source to both body and soul. When our spirit exits our body we are dead to this life. However,this life is not all there is. The spirit of man is eternal and will live forever somewhere. Paul said to be absent from the body is to be present elsewhere. In John 3:6 Jesus said: “That which is born of flesh is flesh and that which is born of spirit. He also said in John 4:2 that they who worship God must worship Him in spirit and in John 6:63 he says the flesh profits nothing.
 
Mirror o the spirit body without the spirit is dead everyone born of the spirit is like the wind. Unseen. but noticeable. Affected to have effect.
