Jesus commissioned his followers to carry on the preaching and teaching work that he had started. (Matthew 28:19, 20) He promised them that God's holy spirit, or active force, would give them the power they needed to do that work.
Jesus also indicated a twofold way in which the spirit would operate. Shortly before his death, he told his apostles the words in John 14:26. The holy spirit would thus act as a teacher and as a remembrancer. As a teacher, it would help Christians grasp things not previously understood. As a remembrancer, it would help them recall and apply correctly what had been explained.
