The Paraclete and Prophecy in the Johannine Community

In my view this interpretation fails to explain fully the role of the Paraclete in the believer’s life, because it overlooks a very important function of the Spirit in the Fourth Gospel, namely, the prophetic function. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Pneuma Brill
