Because of Christ and through the indwelling Spirit, the very presence of God, we get divine counsel/comfort, truth, recall of Jesus’ teaching, the promise that we will never be abandoned. At this Last Supper, Jesus shows the “full extent of His love” and demonstrates the non-negotiables of what it means to be His follower. This is how bad darkness is: to hate the truth and light so much that when it becomes more fully disclosed, the hatred increases all the more. Yet even in the midst of the inquiry by Gentiles and the anguish that is now laying siege to Jesus’ soul, His prayer and desire: “Father, glorify Your name!” Jesus knew the nature of the crowd. This was the same kind of crowd that witnessed His miracles at the beginning of His ministry 3 years prior in Jerusalem. |
