When we look at John 14:16, Jesus clearly states — I will ask the Father, and He will give you another advocate to help you and be with your forever. John 14:26, Jesus says the Advocate, The Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. As, Holy Spirit works in us in many different ways and everyone have a spirit of truth which guide us to go in a path of goodness.
Did you accept him in your life? when we look at John 14:17, The world cannot accept him because it neither sees him nor known him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you. Did you receive the Holy Spirit in your life? When we receive the Holy Spirit in our life, we will have a new life, new spirit, and new path.
We need to remember from 1 Corinthians 6:19, the verse clearly states — Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own. This verse, explains that our bodies are temples which means it is the most holy place for the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit, we have received is not because our good deeds but, it is because of the heavenly Father who gave us the spirit of truth through Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ has sacrifice his own life for us and He brought us with a valuable price.
