Bible Answer: Greetings IN2JESUS, Here is a bit of commentary on John 14:15-31... "14:15-31 In these verses, Jesus promises believers comfort from 5 supernatural blessings that the world does not enjoy: 1) a supernatural Helper (vv. 15-17); 2) a supernatural life (vv. 18,19); 3) a supernatural union (vv. 20-25), 4) a supernatural Teacher (v.26); and 5) a supernatural peace (vv. 27-31). The key to all of this is v. 15 which relates that these supernatural promises are for those who love Jesus Christ; whose love is evidenced by obedience." (1) "14:17 He abides with you and will be in you. The Holy Spirit was active in OT times, but His dwelling in the lives of believers after Pentecost is different in that (1) it is permanent and (2) it is true of every individual believer." (2) You will know when you receive the Holy Spirit because you will begin to know the truth (John 16:13) and to testify in truth about God (John 15:27) and be able to understand the truth that has been given to you (1 Cor. 2:14). I hope that this helps! Blessings to you, Makarios (1) The MacArthur Study Bible, pg. 1614, 1997, John MacArthur, Word Publishing.
