The Holy Spirit Reveals Jesus

"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." (John 16:13)

Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life (John 14: 6)

He now lives in every believer:

"To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:" (Colossians 1: 27)

We do not live in ourselves, but rather He is our life:

"For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. (Colossians 3: 3-4)

Now that we the children of God, we are called to grow in grace and knowledge of Him (2 Peter 3:18)

Paul prayed that the spirit of wisdom would grant them a greater revelation of Christ (Ephesians 1: 17-19)

This Spirit within us, the Holy Spirit, teaches us all things because He tells us all about Jesus, He who lives in us.

When we read the Word of God, let us ask Him to witness to us more of Jesus Christ. This same Spirit has also given us all knowledge, so that we need not run to and fro for others to tell us all things:

"But ye have an unction [anointing] from the Holy One, and ye know all things." (1 John 2:20)

and

"But the anointing which ye have received of him abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him." (1 John 2: 27)

The Holy Spirit will always reveal Jesus, who is our wisdom (1 Corinthians 1: 30).
