Luke 24:45

.

The Greek word for “teach” is “didasko” [dee-das-koe], meaning “to impart instruction, instill doctrine, explain or expound, or hold a discourse.” This definition gives a wonderful clue into who the Spirit is, and what He does. Just as Jesus was always with His disciples and on-goingly taught them, so the Spirit is with you and teaches you [1] [1] The disciples Handbook

Here are some additional readings for you as you are taught by the
Spirit:

“But root and fruit are ever connected by a stem to their branches and leaves. In the life of Christ this was so, too. The connection between His hidden life rooted in God, and that life manifesting itself in the fruit of holy words and works, was maintained by His life of conscious and continual personal fellowship with the Father. In His waiting on the Father, to see and hear what He had to make known, in His yielding Himself to the leadings of the Spirit, in His submission to the teachings of the Word that He came to fulfill, in His watching unto prayer, and in His whole life of dependence and faith, Christ became our Example.” 1 1 Full Life In Christ, Andrew Murray, Whitaker House, 2000, p. 237 Full Life In Christ, Andrew Murray, Whitaker House

“Peter prophesied on the day of Pentecost when he spoke the brilliant message that brought thousands into the kingdom. He proclaimed the Word of God without any preparation or previous study; it was spoken by inspiration…This same thing happens to every person who gets filled with the Spirit of God. The Teacher comes to live in us, and the things of God become clearer.” 2 2 Drawing Near, John Bevere, Thomas Nelson, 2004, p. 167 click to look inside

“There is no college for holy education like that of the blessed Spirit, for He is an ever-present tutor, to whom we have only to bend the knee, and He is at our side, the great expositor of truth. But there is one thing about the suitability of this guide which is remarkable. I do not know whether it has struck you—the Holy Spirit can "guide us into a truth." Now, man can guide us to a truth, but it is only the Holy Spirit who can "guide us into a truth." "When He, the Spirit of truth, shall come, He shall guide you into"—mark that word—"all truth." Now, for instance, it is a long while before you can lead some people to election; but when you have made them see its correctness, you have not led them “into” it. You may show them that it is plainly stated in Scripture, but they will turn away and hate it. You take them to another great truth, but they have been brought up in a different fashion, and though they cannot answer your arguments, they say, “The man is right, perhaps,” and they whisper—but so low that conscience itself cannot hear—“but it is so contrary to my prejudices, that I cannot receive it.” After you have led them to the truth, and they see it is true, how hard it is to lead them into it! There are many of my hearers who are brought to the truth of their depravity, but they are not brought into it, and made to feel it. Some of you are brought to know the truth that God keeps us from day to day; but you rarely get into it, so as to live in continual dependence upon God the Holy Ghost, and draw fresh supplies from him. The thing is—to get inside it. A Christian should do with truth as a snail does with his shell—live inside it, as well as carry it on his back, and bear it perpetually about with him. The Holy Ghost, it is said, shall lead us into all truth. You may be brought to a chamber where there is an abundance of gold and silver, but you will be no richer unless you effect an entrance. It is the Spirit's work to unbar the two leaved gates, and bring us into a truth, so that we may get inside it, and, as dear old Rowland Hill said, "Not only hold the truth, but have the truth hold us." 3 3 “The Holy Ghost—The Great Teacher,” Charles Spurgeon, from a Sermon preached on November 18, 1855                   printer friendly version Kindle digital edition of 1855 sermons
