WE CAN OVERLOOK a seemingly outrageous statement Jesus slips in to this morning’s conversation—that we will do “greater works” than him—unless we understand greater as “more” rather than “superior”.
Of course we cannot perform superior acts!
But if we faithfully follow Jesus and allow the Holy Spirit to guide and empower us we will continue to do God’s work through Jesus.
Jesus expresses his faith in our persevering long enough to out-number his deeds!
Those works of Jesus remain as necessary as ever.
What are we in the Parish of the Holy Spirit, Westfield, doing to add to their number? and how shall we continue to increase Jesus’ works?
