John 15:26-16:4
But when the Paraclete cometh, whom I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceedeth from the Father, he shall give testimony of me. And you shall give testimony, because you are with me from the beginning. These things have I spoken to you that you may not be scandalized. They will put you out of the synagogues: yea, the hour cometh, that whosoever killeth you will think that he doth a service to God. And these things will they do to you; because they have not known the Father nor me. But these things I have told you, that when the hour shall come, you may remember that I told you of them.
Jesus speaks about the coming of the Advocate who will testify to the truth. The Holy Spirit strengthens believers to remain faithful even in difficult circumstances. Throughout history, Christians have relied on this divine help to persevere in faith and witness. We too need the Spirit’s guidance as we navigate challenges and decisions. This Gospel reminds us that God never abandons His people. Through the Spirit, Christ continues to accompany and empower His Church.
