Ques What is meant when it says of the Spirit, “that he may be with you for ever”?

JT Is it not an encouragement to think that He will never leave us? The Lord Jesus has gone away; the apostles are no longer here; brothers who were leaders have been likewise removed, one after another. All that causes sorrow; but the Spirit abides with us for ever, so John speaks in Revelation of the Spirit and the bride saying “Come” to Jesus.

J. Taylor (Vol. 40, p.54)

We think service is what the servant does, but it is what the Lord does with the vessel.

C. A. Coates (‘Outline of Mark’, p.405)
