The Advantage: Why Jesus Left So the Spirit Could Come | Manhattan

John 16:7–15. Jesus promised that it was to our advantage that He would go so that the Holy Spirit could come and dwell within us.

This Sunday, Pastor Josh Kelsey reminds us that the Helper is not distant but deeply present. The same Spirit who revealed Christ to the world now reveals Christ in us. Convicting, guiding, and glorifying the Son through our lives. He doesn't simply inform us of truth; He forms us into it. When we feel weak, uncertain, or wordless, the Spirit intercedes, translating our groans into the language of heaven.

The Spirit is not optional; He is essential. He is the presence of Jesus with us, and the power of Jesus in us.
