The Unfinished Sentence (John 16:5-15)

from Rebuilding Faith · host Jeremy Jernigan

Jesus tells his disciples there's more he wants to say, but they can't handle it yet. It's an admission that the text has edges, that revelation isn't finished, that the Spirit was sent precisely to take us further than the disciples could go. This episode looks at John 16:5-15 and asks the question Jesus leaves hanging: what does the Spirit want to show us today that those first followers weren't ready for? If you've ever felt like the Bible was being used as a ceiling rather than a starting point, this one is for you.
