Dailyword & PRAYERS NOVEMBER 25,2014 (Heb. 9:14).how much more shall the Blood of Christ, Who through the Eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the Living God? There are some who claim that “The Eternal Spirit” here specified is not the Holy Spirit, but rather the personal Spirit of Christ. They conclude this because, as they say, there is no definite article, “the,” in front of “Spirit”; however, the definite article does precede “Eternal Spirit,” signifying the Holy Spirit. God the Father is referred to as “The Eternal God” (Deut. 33:27), and the Lord Jesus is also referred to as “The King Eternal” (I Tim. 1:17). We also have here “The Eternal Spirit,” so-called. The idea is this: The Holy Spirit superintended Christ in every facet of His Life and living. It was the Holy Spirit Who decreed the Conception (Mat. 1:20). The Holy Spirit also superintended His Birth (Lk. 2:26–27) and His Childhood (Lk. 2:40). At His Water Baptism, “the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily shape like a Dove upon Him” (Lk. 3:22). Just before beginning His public Ministry, the Scripture says that He “was led by the Spirit into the wilderness” (Lk. 4:1). At the beginning of His Ministry, and continuing throughout His Ministry, He said, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me …” (Lk. 4:18). So now when it is time to die, the very purpose and reason for which He came, He would breathe out His Life only when “The Eternal Spirit” told Him to do so. He was guided, helped, strengthened, empowered, and led by the Holy Spirit in every facet of His Life and living, even at His Death. But it didn’t stop there: “The Spirit … raised up Jesus from the dead” (Rom. 8:11). Moreover, concerning His Disciples and all His followers, and for all time, just before He ascended back to Heaven, “being assembled together with them, Commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the Promise of the Father … For John truly baptized with water; but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days hence” (Acts 1:4–5). The Lord is telling them, and us, that since the Cross, which has made it all possible, the Holy Spirit can abide in the hearts and lives of all Believers, and will, in fact, do so, exactly as He abode in the heart and life of Jesus in His earthly Ministry. What a privilege! Exactly as He promised, He sent the Holy Spirit back, and did so in a completely new dimension. It is recorded in the Second Chapter of Acts. If there is any great mistake the Church makes, it is undervaluing the Holy Spirit. Without the Holy Spirit, the Church is no more than any other earthly club or gathering. But with the Holy Spirit, the Church becomes a living dynamo. There is nothing more dangerous than a Church which can function without the Holy Spirit. While there might be great religious activity, there is nothing truly done for the Lord. Sadly, that’s the state of the far greater majority of the modern Church. If Jesus needed the Holy Spirit, and the evidence is overwhelming that He did, then we, most definitely, also need the Holy Spirit!
