Answered in 3 sources
The Holy Spirit serves as the Comforter and teacher, empowering believers to understand Christ's teachings and grow in their faith.
In John 14:26, Jesus describes the Holy Spirit as the Comforter that the Father will send in His name to teach believers and remind them of His teachings. This highlights the essential role of the Holy Spirit in the life of a Christian, as He provides divine guidance, understanding, and comfort amidst life’s challenges. The Spirit is not only a teacher but also acts as a seal and guarantee of a believer's status as a child of God, as emphasized in Ephesians 1:13-14. Through the Holy Spirit's work, believers are led into a deeper comprehension of the gospel, resulting in a life characterized by obedience and spiritual fruitfulness.
