[UntoHim]

In the Old Testament only the unity of God was revealed; when the Spirit was mentioned, it was always as His Spirit, the power by which God was working: in the New was not known on earth as a Person. In the New Testament the Trinity is revealed; with Pentecost - the Holy Spirit descended as a Person to dwell in us. This is the fruit of Jesus' work, that we now have the Personal Presence of the Holy Spirit on earth. Just as in Christ Jesus, the second Person, the Son, came to reveal the Father(the first person), and the Father dwelt and spoke in Him, even so the Spirit, the third Person, comes to reveal the Son, and in Him the Son dwells and works in us.

Thanks for posting this one Raptor. Brother Andrew does a great job of explaining the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit is the third Person of the Trinity who comes with the Father and the Son. "And in Him the Son dwells and works in us". This is just another way to say that the Father and Son indwell the believer through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Excellent!
