But that comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things and will remind you is all that I have told you. John 14: 26.
The Father, Son and Holy Spirit, work seamlessly together, from the foundation of the world, and all creative work, including the creation of man, as Genesis states: And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our resemblance; and rule over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth. Genesis 1:26. Let's see what the verb is conjugated in the plural, "let us" no way, a person alone would tell us to do, but I most certainly, Father, Son and Holy Spirit performed this task in the most harmonious expression. In the above verse as the basis of our message, Jesus was giving his last instructions to his disciples before his ascension to heaven, and his promise was to send another Comforter to his followers, and see unanimity again among the three in saving work, he said about the Holy Spirit: The Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name. On the feast of Easter in the village of Bethany, Jesus taught the crowd, and expressed himself saying: Because I have not spoken of myself; but the Father who sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say and what I should speak. And I know that his commandment is eternal life. So, what I speak, I speak it as the Father said unto me. John 12: 49,50. In another passage, Jesus appeared claiming to be the only way to eternal life, and put it this way: I am the way and the truth and the life; No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14: 6. Let's see what Jesus did not say, no one comes to the Father but by me, but said saying no one comes to the Father but by me, there is greater unanimity of expression, between the Father and the Son.
As the Holy Spirit is no different, for someone to be saved, unanimous approval is required of the three. Notice what Jesus said again about the Holy Spirit, before his departure: Nevertheless I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you that I go away; because, if I'm not the Comforter will not come unto you; but when I go, I will send him to you. And when he comes, he will convict the change of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment. Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye can not bear them now. But when the Spirit of truth, he will guide you into all truth; I will not speak of himself; but whatsoever what he hears, and will announce to you what is to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take what is mine and it's advertising. All that the Father has is mine; so I told you that by taking from what is mine and declare it to you advertise. John 16: 7-15. So we believe in the process of salvation, there is the harmonious verdict of God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit; It needs the cleansing of the Blood of Jesus Christ, erasing our sins, to be saved, as the Apostle John describes: But if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood Jesus Christ, his Son, purifies us from all sin. I John 1: 7. Notably, without the conviction of the Holy Spirit in the life of the sinner, so no one will be saved, as it convinces us; of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment. John 16: 8. But also without the forgiveness of sins, no one will be saved, and God the Father, is the forgiver, through the intercession of Jesus, that we see when he was being crucified on the cross, and praying to the Father 'Father forgive them because they do not They know what they do. Luke 23: 34a. This is the saving process in which we are blessed by God, who is the bright and glorious eternal salvation, however, the duration of the dispensation of grace, for the opportune time is now, as records the writer to the Hebrews; Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time being. Hebrews 4:16, since we have a lawyer, with the Father, to justify our sins and offenses, when we ask for forgiveness, as instructed in the Apostle John, who thus saith: My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not; And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. I John 2: 1. However, this opportunity one day will end, since after the Rapture of the Church, our advocate, is the bridegroom of the church, as the Apostle Paul says: For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to present you as a chaste virgin to a husband, namely, Christ. II Corinthians 11: 2. Also Jesus himself when utters the parable of the ten virgins, saying resemble the kingdom of heaven, who will come right time the husband and wife go out to meet him, as the evangelist Matthew records: But at midnight there came a cry: Here comes the husband, went out to meet him. Matthew 25: 6, in the millennium He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Revelation 19:16, and the great white throne, he will be the judge, as the Apostle John describes: For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself; And it gave him the authority to execute judgment, because he is the Son of man. John 5: 26,27. Will emerge a gap between the Rapture of the Church, and the millennium, called the great tribulation, which will last a period of seven years, it will be the dark period of grief and pain for the inhabitants of the land, staying at the rapture, and the Spirit Santo also will be subject to heaven, and so many preachers are wrong in the matter of salvation for the inhabitants of the earth in this period of great tribulation, first: There will be salvation in the great tribulation. John the Apostle in his vision in Revelation, reveals the questioning of an old man, who says: And one of the elders told me saying, These that are clothed in white robes, who are they, and whence came they? And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple; and he that sitteth on the throne shall cover them with his shadow. Revelation 7: 13-15.
In the revelation given to John, are the souls of those who will be saved during the great tribulation, however, will continue to be saved by Jesus, they washed their clothes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb, Jesus who will continue to save, now a detail; the Holy Spirit will continue actively convincing sinners, the fact that he returned to heaven, does not mean it will run its operations, the evangelist Mark records that the Lord Jesus, after giving the last instructions to his disciples, was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God, Mark 16:19, however, Jesus himself said: For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I with them. Matthew 18:20, nobody is ever saved, without the approval of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, after the rapture of the church, will change the rule of salvation, but the essence will remain the same, which is unanimity Trinity action in the life of the sinner, of course, will only be saved, those who do not accept the mark of the beast, since those who accept will be condemned, as tells us the book of Revelation: And followed the third angel, saying with a voice: If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives his mark on his forehead or on his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; It will be tormented with fire and brimstone before the holy angels and of the Lamb. Revelation 14: 9,10. As for those who do not accept, they will be saved, probably cost their lives, however, never be saved on their own. Another issue controversy that many claim, on the departure of the Holy Spirit, the Holy Bible loses its essence, and it will be like a common newspaper, this statement is wrong, God's word is no object, with shelf life, it is eternal. Peter tells us in his epistle: But the word of the Lord endureth for ever. And this is the word that was preached to you. I Peter 1:25, there will only be saved unless there preaching and the gospel to be preached is the same as announced, Paul recommends the saying, If anyone preaches any other gospel to you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. Galatians 1,9b. So, whether now or in the great tribulation for someone to reach eternal life in Christ Jesus, there must be the conviction of the Holy Spirit, the washing away of sins by the Blood of Jesus and the forgiveness granted by God, just so the name is written in the book of life of the Lamb. Amen
