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 of love for persuasion.
