GOSPEL READING: JOHN 16:12-15

Everything that the Father has is mine.

People of Israel believed in one true God. There was no one equal to him or above him or below him. He was the only one true God. This was their expression and we see this very much expressed in the Old Testament. But they always expected a Messiah. Their experience of god was in redemption (From Egypt) and they expected this God to redeem them always and especially they expected the coming of the Messiah.

Jesus came into the world and expressed himself as the Messiah and the people who followed him experienced in Jesus the works of a Messiah. Jesus also spoke in terms of equality with God and that he was sent by God and sent with a particular mission etc. This Jesus also expressed that the coming of the Spirit was to complete the mission of Jesus in the world.

நற்செய்தி வாசகம்: யோவான் 16:12-15

தந்தையுடையவை யாவும் என்னுடையவையே.

மூவொரு கடவுள் என்பது விவிலிய வெளிப்பாடே. பழைய ஏற்பாட்டில் வெளிப்படுத்தப்பட்ட இறைவன் மீட்பராக மீண்டும் வருவார் என்பதும் விவிலியத்தில் வெளிப்படுத்தப்படுகிறது. இந்த எதிர்பார்ப்பு இயேசுவில் நிறைவேறுகிறது. தூய ஆவியாரில் அது நிறைவுபெறும்.
