Scripture John 7: 38-39
indicates the holding back of the Holy Spirit for some reason. Why? Why
couldn’t the Holy Spirit be given fully until Jesus was glorified?
In this section, 3 reasons will follow to explain God’s
seeming hesitation.
1)
The first reason seems to be because a
transition by Jehovah Father was to allow that love/part of himself to become recognizable
and available to everyone, not just the Hebrew people.
2)
The Holy Spirit needed to move through
Jesus’s actions and the disciples to give a more complete picture of heavenly
Father who does not force belief through manipulating power but displays humble
absorption.
3)
The word says Jesus must become glorified.
Part of Jesus becoming glorified means the Holy Spirit becomes universal for
everyone and therefore, becomes ultimate love/power, more all comprehensive and
covering any failure when confessed.
