  19. The general impression is that the work of the Holy Spirit begins when the work of the Mediator on earth is finished, as though until that time the Holy Spirit celebrated His divine day of rest. Yet the Scripture teaches again and again that Christ performed His mediatorial work controlled and impelledby the Holy Spirit. Andrew Kuyper

  21. The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to proclaim good news to the poor … liberty to the captives … sight to the blind … set free those who are oppressed … and proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor. Isaiah 61 “Today, this has been fulfilled in your hearing.” Luke 4

  22. “Not only is Jesus their Savior because of who He was and because of His own complete obedience to the Father’s will, but He is the supreme example for them of what is possible in a human life because of His dependence upon the Spirit of God.” Gerald Hawthorne The Presence & Power
