It is written in the [[book of 1 John]] that Jesus is the "advocate." In some versions of the Bible, “advocate” is rendered as “helper.” It is because the Greek word for both helper and advocate is ''parakletos''. While Jesus was on earth as the ''Parakletos'', He taught the truth to the disciples so that they could enter the kingdom of heaven. Even later, when Jesus was in heaven, he defended them before the Father as the ''Parakletos''. | It is written in the [[book of 1 John]] that Jesus is the "advocate."

Jesus said, “The Counselor, the Holy Spirit, will come and teach all things,” and then “I am going away and I am coming back to you.” In other words, the Holy Spirit refers to '''[[Second Coming Jesus (Second Coming Christ)|Jesus who comes a second time]]'''. He meant that '''Jesus, the Counselor''', would come again as '''another Counselor, the Holy Spirit'''. The Holy Spirit teaches all the truths to the saints and helps them enter the kingdom of heaven.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www. | Jesus said, “The Counselor, the Holy Spirit, will come and teach all things,” and then “I am going away and I am coming back to you.” In other words, the Holy Spirit refers to '''[[Second Coming Jesus (Second Coming Christ)|Jesus who comes a second time]]'''.
