First, the sermon establishes that God is indivisibly and mathematically one, and Israel has always recognized and worshiped one God. In Mark 12:29, Jesus himself affirms that God is one.Next, the sermon affirms that Jesus is both the Holy Spirit and the Son. In John 14:18, Jesus promises to come back as the Holy Spirit to be with the apostles. 2 Corinthians 3:17 equates the Lord with the Spirit, and Galatians 4:6 calls the Holy Spirit the spirit of the Son. From these scriptures, it is clear that the Spirit received by believers is none other than the Spirit of Jesus Christ.The sermon then delves into the need for intercession in prayer. In Romans 8:26-27, the apostle Paul writes how believers struggle to pray as they should and often fail to pray according to God's will. In God's mercy, He intercedes through believers. The sermon emphasizes that God requires sincere and fervent intercession for His will to be accomplished on Earth.The sermon proceeds to illustrate the importance of intercession throughout the Bible, citing examples such as Abraham interceding for Sodom and Gomorrah and Ezra's prayerful response to Israel's sins. Only God Himself, who is Jesus, was found worthy to intercede effectively for humanity's salvation. This is supported by Isaiah 53:4-5, which speaks of Jesus bearing humanity's griefs and transgressions.Regardin…
