John 14:7 - 14:14

Gospel of John
Gospel of JohnSteve Gregg

In John 14:7-14, Jesus makes one of His strongest declarations of deity, revealing the difficult-to-grasp concept of the Holy Trinity. He promises to send the Holy Spirit to empower believers to do even greater works than He performed, and that praying in His name will be powerful. However, He also emphasizes the importance of aligning requests with the Father's will. The speaker, Steve Gregg, notes that the activity of the Holy Spirit is essential to the growth and vitality of the church, and Christians should seek to be filled with the Spirit in all they do.
