Yeah I got the date correct!I will request the Father and he will give you another helper to be with you forever. John 14:16.
The holy spirit helps us to endure various trails. How so? The apostle Paul, who faced tests himself, described in a letter to the Christina in Corinth how God’s spirit came to his aid. Paul openly told his fellow believers that he was dealing with “a thorn in the flesh,” a trail of some sort. Then, he said: “I three times entreated the Lord [Jehovah] that it might depart from me.” ( 2 Cor. 12:7,8) Even though Paul begged God to remove his affliction, it remained. Perhaps you face a similar situation today. Like Paul, you may have prayed with persistence and with confidence, asking Jehovah to remove a trial. Despite your repeated petitions, however, the problem still confronts you. Does that mean that Jehovah did not respond to your prayers and that his spirit is not helping you? Not at all! Ps. 10:1,17
Well sorry I am late. This one is so juicy for an atheist like my self.
The holy spirit helps us to endure various trails. How so? No really, How so?
I have endured trials without requesting it’s help. My having four wisdom teeth being removed for example. Funny, it went kind of like the times I did request the holy spirit’s help. May be it was all in my head to begin with.
I Love the ending. If Jehovah doesn’t help you when you ask for help in prayer does it mean he didn’t help you. Of course he didn’t morons! That is why people become atheist and agnostics because prayers don’t work in a predictable and testable manner.
