The Lord's Gospel - Part 2

In Part 2 of this series, we consider Luke 17:21 more closely. We go into depth as to how Jesus and his 12 disciples formed the first ekklesia of God, or new kingdom of God, Jesus was bringing as the mediator of the New Covenant. We examine multiple passages showing the equivalency of Jesus and the Holy Spirit, also referred to as the Spirit of Christ, in the role as the paraclete within a New Covenant people of God. We explore how the paraclete is a "Helper" and a two-way "Advocate" who most often advocates on behalf of God to the people of God as to how to know God and complete the way of salvation. In the next part we will explore why it makes sense that Jesus came to set up a new kingdom on earth.
