The Gift of The Holy Spirit//John 14:15-27

10/24/2021

  1. Have you ever been given a task to complete that you had no way (or thought you had no way) of being able to complete?
  2. One of the things that the Holy Spirit accomplishes is the uniting of Christians to Christ and the uniting of Christains to one another. Have you ever had the experience of meeting a believer from a different place or culture and found an instant connection?  
  3. Why do you think that connection exists? What makes it so powerful?
  4. According to verses 25-26, the Holy Spirit guides us into truth and reminds us of the gospel. Have you had this experience? How do you think this happens? Go through these two verses and talk about them for a while. 
  5. The word for the Holy Spirit here is “parakletos”. It’s a word rich with meaning. What struck you by the way we talked about it on Sunday morning? 
Here are some of the definitions to fill out discussion. 
Para - means to stand alongside with.  They are not just with you but they are for you. They are with you in battle, they are with you in judgment - you are always with them no matter what in a way that is extremely personal.  They are not just beside you but they are a part of it on your behalf.
Kletos - means to declare, to make a case, to argue. They are always with you and for you and they are doing something, they're not just standing there.
Comforter - “With Strength”. Thus, a comforter was someone who came to strengthen you. It wasn't the one who came to only wipe your tears after the battle; it was the one who came to give you strength for the battle.
    6. The Holy Spirit also brings peace - not any old peace but true “shalom”. How would you describe the difference between the two? Has there been a time when “shalom” peace provided you with comfort?
   7. We experience the fullness of the Holy Spirit by believing and obeying. What are you currently walking through that you need to rely on the strength of the Holy Spirit to accomplish? And how will this passage be a gift to you in the midst of it?
