Divine Love and Wisdom #149
149. We can see from the following passages in the Word that the Holy Spirit is the same as the Lord and is the very truth that is the source of our enlightenment. "Jesus said, 'When the spirit of truth has come, he will lead you into all truth. He will not speak on his own, but will say what he has heard'" (John 16:13). "He will glorify me because he will receive from me and will proclaim to you" (John 16:14-15). He will be with the disciples and in them (John 15:26 [14:17]). "Jesus said, 'The things I am telling you are spirit and life'" (John 6:63). We can see from these passages that the very truth that emanates from the Lord is called the Holy Spirit, which enlightens us because it is in the light.
