all truth and glorifies Christ by showing
unto us things to come, the things that
are Christ's. He also makes intercession
in us, while Christ at Gods right hand
makes intercession for us from. viii, 26,

! H. HE dwelleth with you and shall be
in you" Ye are the temple of God, and
the Spirit of God dwelleth in you q Cor.
ill., 16) When once He comes to dwell in
us, as He does when we are born again,
He never leaves us, even though we often
grieve Him. He loves to the end But
how much better we might know Himl
How He would fill us and how much He
would tell us if we would yield fully to
Him and cease to grieve Him by our
worldly ways and un-C hristlike conductl

row shall be forgotten in that bright
morning of His return when we shall see
and share His glory and until He does
come the comforter will prove Himself a
real comforter to all who are willing to
receive Him heartily Our Father is the

seeth Me no moro, but ye see Me; because
live ye shall live also, " His life insures
ours. He is able to save evermore because
He ever liveth Heb vii, 25, margin). He
is our life and as the orc who was dead
but is alive for eyermore, having the keys
of hades and of death, He says unto us,
Fear not (Rev. i, II, 49,. AS the moon
reflects upon us the light of the sun after
he has gone from our sight because she
still sees him, so we over seeing Jesus by
faith should ever reflect His light.
20. AT that day We shall know that l
am in My Father and We in Me, and in
you" Beloved, now are we the children
of God, and it doth not yet appear what
we shall be, but we know that when He
shall appear we shall be like Him, for we
shall SEQ Him as he Ia, and this hope set
on Him is very purifying Il John iii, 2, 3D.
Then our whole spirit, soul and body will
be blameless at the coming of our Lord
Jesus Christ Il Thess. V, 23, r. W. May
Christ be more fully formed in us now to
the glory of God (Gal iv, 19).
81. "He that hath My commandments
and keepeth them, he it is that loveth Me,
and he that loveth Me shall be loved of My
Father and / will love him and will man
ifest Myself to him." A special love to
Christ receives special love from the Father
and special manifestations of Christ from
Himself. The Lord always reveals Him
self to His people by His word and Spirit,
even as He did to Samuel q Sam. iii, 21).
%. Lord how is it that Thou wilt
manifest Thyself unto us and not unto the
World?' This question is from the other
Judas, not Iscariot. He seems to say, If
we can see you, why cannot others? He
| thought only of the outward, like Nico-
demus and the woman at the well. He did
not understand as yet the spiritual, things
seen only by spiritual people, the revela-
ton of the heart of God to the heart of
man. See l Cor. ii, 10, r. V.
23. Jesus answered and said unto him,
If man love Me, he will keep My words,
and My Father will love him, and We will
come unto him and make Our abode with
him. In verse II He said that the Spirit
would dwell in us, but now He adds that
both the Father and Himself would come
too, and make their abode in those who
love and keep His word The word abode"
in this verse is just the same as the word
mansion in verse 2, a little Greek noun
of four letters and not used anywhere but
in these two verses. How wonderful that
these bodies OF ours may become mansions
in which the Father, Son and Holy Spirit
will condescend to DWELL
My sayings, and the word which We hear
is not Mine, but the Fathers which sent
Me. " How often He tells us that the words
are not His, but the Father'sl Verse 10;
chapter xii, 49, From the age of 10, if
not before, He was about His Fathers
business duke ii, 49), and in all His life
the Father spoke and wrought through
Him. He was vessel wholly for God,
and He asks us to present our bodies
living sacrifice Rom. xii u.
25. These things have spoken unto
you, being yet present with you" They
were some of His very last words ere He
left them, and His whole hearts desire
must have gone out to them in these
words. He longed to have them know
Himself and His Father better, that they
might be full of joy, even His own joy,
and in Him have peace XIV, Il; xvi, "a,
33; xvii, 13). Vet He knew that only by
the Spirit could they fully understand,
and so He said that it was better for Him
to go, that the Spirit might come and
open their eyes and fonvince them xvi
z, s..
26. "He shall teach you all things and
bring all things to your remembrance,
whatsoever l have said unto you" This
He said of the Comforter, the Holy Ghost,
and He said, Whom the Father will send
in My name" Therefore the Spirit is
here wholly ON His business and when we
are willing to be wholly ON His business
the Spirit will surely fill us. AS the disci-
pies thought of the very many things He
had said to them and probably longed to
recall every word what a comfort this
assurance must have been
~. peace leave with you, My peace I
give unto you, not as the world givotl
give | unto you Let not your heart be
troubled, neither let it be afraid We
can have nothing apart from Christ This
peace is in Him. He is our peace and
staid on Him is perfect peace Chapter xvi
33; Eph. ii, IA; lisa. XVI, -. The world
gives kind Of peace by pleasant circum-
stances, and when they fail the peace is
gone, but He gives peace within where no
storm can reach.
