The Holy Spirit and Remembrance

The Holy Spirit and Remembrance

May 11

"But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you" (John 14:26). John wrote his detailed discourses of Jesus (almost half of the verses in John's gospel consist of His words) approximately fifty years after Christ spoke them, yet John was able to report them verbatim because of the supernatural memory of them brought back by the Holy Spirit. The same must have been true for the other Biblical writers as they recalled words and events of years before.
