The Holy Spirit is the third person in our triune God – God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit is our comforter and our counselor (advisor). Jesus told that it is good that He is going, so that Holy Spirit will be sent to be with us and for us. The person of the Holy Spirit has such a very unique and special place of honor. We should therefore neither be quenching the Holy Spirit, nor should we be grieving the Holy Spirit. But unless we understand what these mean, we may not know if we slip into this wrong doing.

We know about the forbidden tree in the garden of eden. 

Do you know Joseph, the son of Jacob? His brothers envied him as Jacob loved him most and had given him a coat of many colors. Joseph was bon in Jacob’s old age, thus Jacob had a soft corner for him and loved him more.

Joseph was also Rachel’s first born. After barrenness for a long time, God blessed Rachel with her first child in Joseph.

The Bible is very clear. Our God is Lord over all. This includes young and the old. Abraham was asked to leave his fathers land and go to the promised land. He did so when he was seventy five.

Read this portion from Genesis Chapter 12

1 Now the Lord had said to Abram:
“Get out of your country,
From your family
And from your father’s house,
To a land that I will show you.
