I apologize for not keeping up with the Bible Study postings but, finally I'm catching up. This week's passage is from St. John 14:15-27, The Promise of the Holy Spirit. Below are the questions we will be considering this evening. If you have any comments, then please feel free to join in - we would welcome your input!
1. Jesus' connection with his disciples is based on love. Thinking of the past two Bible Studies that have considered God as love, do you think that Jesus is offering unconditional or conditional love in this passage?
2. Why is the Advocate sent to be with us 'forever' when Jesus was with us for a comparatively short time? What might this really mean?
3. The world is spoken of as being very different from the disciples. What does that mean for us as disciples who have to live in the world?
4. What does this passage mean for those who do not'love Jesus?'
5. How do you think the Holy Spirit has worked in you to teach you and remind you of what Jesus taught?
6. How does the Holy Spirit work in us today, if indeed you agree that it does?
