((The only way to receive this “Holy Spirit(Holy Angel),” is by being connected to God the Father, and Jesus the Christ. How do we get connected? Just start obeying his spirit(his word) which is his laws, commandments, statues, and judgments, and not excluding these commandments written in Exodus chapter 20, and remember to honor and keep holy the Sabbath, the 7th day which man has label Saturday, and not Sunday the 1st day. Keeping Sunday, the 1st day as your Sabbath is not going to work or benefit you, and on top of that, rejecting God’s Sabbath which he commanded. That’s a bad… do, a damnable do. You have to work on it, and ween yourself off of it. Some can do a 180 turn, but some can’t. The Lord understands that. He know those who are sincere in changing. It might not be an overnight thing, yet you have to start. The Lord knows who’s trying, he knows who’s putting forth the effort. We have to acknowledge all, and live by it. It’s all or nothing. He didn’t give us the latitude to decide what laws we desire to be active or not. He let’s us know what’s active. Are we gonna humble ourselves or boast ourselves before the face of God?))
KJV John 14:15-17
15. If ye love me, keep my commandments.
16. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
17. Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
((Jesus let’s us know how we genuinely show him that we love him, simply by keep his commandments: commandments from Genesis to Revelation. If we keep his commandments, he’ll pray to the Father, petitioning for us, and he’ll give us another Comforter(Spirit of Truth), that he may abide with us forever. Remember, we must continue to keep the commandments in order for us to continue to have this Comforter. Let’s continue.))
KJV John 14:25-26
25. These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.
26. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
Note: The Comforter can be called the Spirit of Truth, Holy Ghost, or Holy Angel.
(((Jesus made this statement, he said, “the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name,” this Holy Ghost will be sent in Jesus name, so this individual is not representing himself, he’s representing Jesus, teaching and bringing to remembrance whatsoever Jesus has said unto his servants. So what if we haven’t been seeking God, reading, and learning the commandments, finding out what’s pleasing to God and what is expected of us, and living it, what can the the Spirit of truth or Holy Angel bring to our remembrance if we haven’t been reading the word of God to know and understand? He can’t bring nothing that hasn’t been at least processed once in our brain, because if he brought it, we wouldn’t recognize it, because we hadn’t read it or understood. It would shoot pass us like a bullet. Once connected, by the hand of God, the Spirit of truth is sent unto us to teach us, even things we don’t know, or fully understand. Let’s continue.)))
KJV John 15:26
26. But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:
(((The Spirit of Truth is the Comforter and sometimes called the Holy Ghost(Holy Angel or Holy Spirit), he’s going to testify of Jesus, not himself. The next script defines more of the duties of the Holy Ghost.)))
KJV John 16:12-14
12. I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
13. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.
14. He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.
(((Keep in mind that he shall not speak of himself, only what he shall hear. To sum this up, the Comforter is the Holy Ghost(Holy Angel), which is a spiritual being that delivers the truth unto the servants of God. The Spirit of truth will guide us into all truth, even show us future things that hasn’t happened yet. That’s why it’s so important to know when to halt or be mobile. The only way we’re going to know that is by seeking and living the truth. When we know and understand whats right and what we should do, we shouldn’t question whether we should do it or not. We should just do it, and quit thinking about ourselves(particularly: shame, being single out, being alone, and separated). Stand up for righteousness. When we’ve done all that we know is right and after that, when we don’t know where else to turn, we should wait on the spirit, and not allow our flesh(mind) to start thinking on it’s own. We all deal with our flesh thinking on it’s on. Our flesh is always trying to come up with an exit, when we feel ourselves being threaten, you know, “what can I do to prevent this from happening or that happening.” Before you know it, our mind has come up with many exits, even exits accomplished by lying, cheating, stealing, and manipulation. Whether we’re serving God or not, these thoughts sometimes come to mind, and only the fear of God will detour our mind from making an evil choice. I deal with it, and the majority of the time, I immediately check myself and wait on God’s spirit(Holy Angel) to guide me. Some can do it right off the back and some have to grow to that. We have to start somewhere. Here’s an example of the Holy Spirit(Holy Angel, Spirit of truth, Comforter, or Holy Ghost) in action.
KJV Luke 2:25-29
25. And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him.
26. And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord’s Christ.
27. And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law,
28. Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said,
29. Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word:
(((For example: The Holy Ghost revealed unto Simeon beforehand that he was gonna see the child Jesus before he died. The Holy Ghost or we can say, “the Spirit of truth” showed him what things shall come to pass. Let’s continue.)))
KJV Luke 1:5-7, 11-13,18-19, 26, 30-33
5. There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
6. And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.
7. And they had no child, because that Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well stricken in years.
((Note: How are we considered righteous? We become righteous before God by walking in all the commandments and ordinances of God blameless. There is know private interpretation(ref. 2 Peter 1:20). You’ll find some people saying, “That’s how you see it, I see like this.” There’s only one understanding, and that’s what it is. Some might have more understanding about certain things, yet the understanding of a certain matter isn’t going to steer to the right or left, but increase straight forward. Let’s continue.))
11. And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.
12. And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.
13. But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John.
((We read earlier at the beginning of these posts in John 14:15-17, about how in order for us to receive this Spirit of Truth(Holy Angel), we have to keep the commandments and then Jesus will pray to the Father, and he will give us this Comforter. Isn’t this what Zacharias and his household was doing for God to hear them, keeping the commandments.
Skipping to 18
18. And Zacharias said unto the angel, Whereby shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well stricken in years.
19. And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.
((Okay, this angel named Gabriel is stating his job, basically saying, “I am a servant which stand before God to hear, and execute/transmit his desire and instructions, even show his servants the future/glad tidings.” This same Angel went unto someone else. Let’s continue.))
KJV Luke 1:26, 30-33
26. And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,
skipped to 30-33
30. And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.
31. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus.
32. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:
33. And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
(((This Holy Ghost, Holy Angel, or Holy Spirit that’s named Gabriel which informed Zacharias that his wife Elisabeth shall bear him a son, which was John, is the same angel that was sent unto Mary to inform her that she shall conceive and bring forth a son, which was Jesus. He’s the same one who informed Daniel about a vision before Zacharias and Mary were even born. Let’s continue.)))
KJV Daniel 8:15-20
15. And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, and sought for the meaning, then, behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man.
16. And I heard a man’s voice between the banks of Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.
17. So he came near where I stood: and when he came, I was afraid, and fell upon my face: but he said unto me, Understand, O son of man: for at the time of the end shall be the vision.
18. Now as he was speaking with me, I was in a deep sleep on my face toward the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright.
19. And he said, Behold, I will make thee know what shall be in the last end of the indignation: for at the time appointed the end shall be.
20. The ram which thou sawest having two horns are the kings of Media and Persia.
(((At Verse 20: Gabriel proceeded to teach Daniel what the vision meant. Let’s continue.)))
KJV Daniel 9:21-22
21. Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.
22. And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding.
Note: But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things. Gabriel taught Daniel and gave him skill and understanding. So whether in the Old or New Testament, God send forth his Holy Spirit, Holy Angel, Holy Ghost, Spirit of truth, or Comforter to do the same thing to all his servants: he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come, and give thee skill and understanding.
The Protocol of how instructions and information is sent out by the Comforter(Holy Ghost, Holy Angel, Spirit of Truth is as follows:
Revelation 1: 1-3
1. The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
2. Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.
Protocol:
1. God the Father, gives the word unto Jesus
2. Jesus the Christ, gives the word unto the Spirit of Truth(Holy Angel)
3. The Holy Angel gives/shows his servants the future/things which must shortly come pass
((In this particular scripture, Jesus sent the message that he received from the Father by his angel to deliver unto John. This is how we are blessed. Let’s continue.))
3. Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
Note: We’re blessed by reading, hearing, and keeping those things that are written. What’s written? His word(the spirit) ref. John 6: 63
Some might say within themselves, “I know God is with me, and I haven’t been keeping them commandments. Look at what I achieve and look at how much I have prospered, look at how far I’ve came.” Some might be living according to the word of God with the understanding that they have, and are honest with themselves. God knows and realize what we know and understand. He judge us according to what we know and understand. I too was trying observe the few commandments that I was familiar with, for instance: Thou shalt not commit adultery, kill, steal, bear false witness, plus trying not fornicate. With all my might I was trying to do right with the knowledge and understanding that I had before finding out the whole truth, and the Lord knew I wanted to know the whole truth, and I was sincerely seeking him, bouncing from church to church. I wasn’t keeping the sabbath, I wasn’t totally keeping the dietary, because I didn’t know or understand it. I can’t remember ever hearing the words Dietary law or Sabbath come out from behind the pulpit at the churches I’ve attended, before showing up at “The Israel of God.” One good thing is that, before I found out that I wasn’t suppose to eat pork, I had already stop eating pork 2 years before I knew it was written in the scripture, so…that’s something I didn’t have to fight. I really never liked shrimp, lobster, and crab legs, so that wasn’t a biggy, I probably ate shrimp once or twice. Catfish was something I had to let go, it wasn’t to big of a problem, I just had to find some clean replacements that I liked to eat(ref. Leviticus chpt.11). I was studying with Jehovah’s Witnesses for about 6 weeks. This was the last organization I was studying with before I found out about “The Israel of God Bible Study Class.” I was kind of in the deciding mode, whether I should join the Jehovah Witnesses. I prayed unto God for the truth, and while waiting, within 2 months he saw my desire, patience and sincerity. Before I knew it, here comes the whole truth before me by the hand of one of my sisters, and I latch on to it, not reject it. Most errors and misconceptions I shunned from immediately, others took some months, but I was shedding. It’s a whole new way of living, yet fear became and is my main drive, I believe.
Again, some might say within themselves, “I know God is with me, although I haven’t been keeping them commandments and look at what I achieve and look at how much I have prospered, look at how far I’ve came. We have to question ourselves, “Who’s giving me these gifts, and how did I obtained these gifts and/or achievements? God not only reward with gifts or physical security, Satan rewards with gifts and physical security. For instance, Satan offered Jesus this:
Luke 4:5-8
5. And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
6. And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.
7. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.
8. And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
((Did Jesus take the bait? Naw. Are you taking the bait? Are you purposely with understanding breaking/polluting the Sabbath Day(the 7th day Saturday) when you don’t have to? Are you lying, bearing false witness, manipulating, and/or sowing discord to achieve or get whatever? Examine yourself. Be honest with yourself. Don’t deceive yourself. Who are you really bowing down to? We all are born and giving a certain amount of time upon this earth to either figure it out and do it or understand it and reject it. You will understand at one point of time while you exist, so.. you will have no excuse when you stand before God.
Matthew 24:14
14. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
I encourage all to grab a hold of it, and live(eternal).
