The Holy Spirit is called by Jesus "another Advocate". Jesus is the one who stands by us to help and defend us. But He promised that when he would return to the Father, the Holy Spirit will be with us, giving us the words to say, when we are brought before judges for the sake of Jesus' name. Being the Spirit of Truth, his defense of us will be truthful, whether accepted or not by others. Will he also be the Advocate along with Jesus who will sand beside us before the throne of the Father? If so, there we will have the testimony of these two witnesses concerning our life as a son or daughter of God. They can only speak the truth for they know us better than we know  ourselves.  Therefore, we should take comfort in the divine advocacy of the Spirit and Jesus.
