Spirit is Holy 67
The promise of the new covenant in Christ Jesus is made. "Behold the days are coming, says the Lord when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, not like the covenant which I made with their fathers... I will put my law within them, and I will write it upon their hearts."1 2 This new Jesus covenant will not be written on parchment or on stone tablets but will be inscribed on human hearts within ordinary people.
Jesus knew that he was to introduce the new covenant. The following verse was prophesied in Isaiah about Jesus and reveals clearly the speaker as the redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. "And now the Lord God has sent me with his spirit."3 Jesus was sent on the authority of the Father with the gifts of the Holy Spirit and empowered by the Holy Spirit.
"O Comforter, gentle and tender, O holy and heavenly Dove,
We are yielding our hearts in surrender, We're waiting Thy fullness to prove.
O come as the heart searching fire, O come as the sin-cleansing flood;
Consume us with holy desire, And fill with the fullness of God."
1 Jeremiah 31.31 2 1 Corinthians 11.25 3 Isaiah 48.16
"Jesus and the Holy Spirit as Brothers."
