Matt. ix. 38.—“Pray ye, therefore, the Lord of the harvest, that _he_ will send forth labourers into _his_ harvest.” Acts xiii. 4.—“So they being set forth by the Holy Ghost.” This proves the Holy Ghost is the Lord of his harvest. * * * * * Luke ii. 16.—“And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord Christ.” Verse 28.—“And he blessed God, and said, Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to _thy word_.” This Word was the Word of the Holy Ghost, and is _God_ and _Lord_, to be blessed and praised. John xiv. 17.—“_He_, the Spirit of Truth, dwelleth in you, and shall be in you.” 1 Cor. xiv. 25.—“_God_ is in you, of a truth.” 2 Tim. iii. 14.—“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God.” 2 Peter xxi—“Holy men of old spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.” John iv. 41.—“It is written in the prophets, and they shall all be taught of _God_.” 1 Cor. ii. 13.—“Not in the word which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth.” Acts v. 3.—“Why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost?” Verse 4.—“Thou hast not lied unto men, but unto _God_.” 1 Cor. iii. 16.—“The temple of _God_ is holy, which temple are ye?” 1 Cor. vi. 19.—“Know ye not that your bodies are the temples of the Holy Ghost?” Dent. vi. 14.—“Thou shall not tempt the Lord thy God.” Acts v. 9.—“How is it that ye have agreed to tempt the spirit of the Lord?” Matt. xix. 17.—“There is none good but one, that is God.” Psalm clxxiii. 10.—“Thy Spirit is good; lead me.” * * * * * I might mention many more, with a vast many proofs of this sublime doctrine, but I trust you will be led to read them in the Scriptures with a grace-taught eye, and rejoice in the truth as you discover and feel it. “There are three which bear record in heaven”—the Father; the Word, (as Son of God) and the Holy Spirit; and these _three_ are _one_—not merely one person, bearing three _names_, but three persons—nor yet three gods, but only _one_ in essence—_three_ in persons, distinct in personality, names and office. This sacred Three bear record to the Sonship, Godhead, Divinity, and Dignity of Christ. So they also bear record to the consciences of God’s dear people—that they are the Lord’s. The record of the Father is, “Yea, I have loved thee;”—the record of the Son is, “I have redeemed thee;”—and the record of the Spirit is, “I have called thee.” It is necessary this grand point should be well understood by the Lord’s people, that they may enjoy distinct holy communion with, and give equal glory to, the adorable Author of Salvation.
