Sometimes, when we hear these things, we are concerned that won\u2019t this just give people permission to be irresponsible. Let\u2019s look to God\u2019s Word, they are words to live by. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/1\/rom.6.15\">Romans 6:<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">15<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201c<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What then? shall we sin, because we are not under the law, but under grace?

If Jesus says another advocate, was Jesus really an advocate? At least we knew how Jesus lived with His disciples. Was Jesus really an advocate for His disciples? When Peter used his sword to cut off the ear of the people who came to arrest Jesus, what did Jesus do? Advocacy &#8211; He took the ear and put it back so that they would not put Peter in prison (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/116\/LUK.22.47-51\">Luke 22:47-51<\/a>).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before Peter denied Jesus three times, Jesus had already advocated for him. He said I have prayed for you that your faith will not fail. The truth is denying Jesus is a big deal! But Jesus advocated for Peter even before he did it. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/116\/luk.22.31-32\">Luke 22:<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">31-32<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201c<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift each of you like wheat.

Jesus paid His taxes and also paid the disciple\u2019s taxes. Do you know that was what happened? Please read <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bible.com\/bible\/116\/mat.17.27\">Matthew 17:27<\/a>.

This was a new concept for the Old Testament believer because the Holy Spirit did not stay persistently before this.
