The Old Testament: The Spirit worked to create the People of God. But the Spirit was given only to certain individuals to work for the welfare of the Nation-church. The prophecies concerning the Messianic Age included the belief in the full outpouring of God’s Spirit upon the whole Church. The New Testament: Christ Jesus worked in the power of the Spirit. After the Ascension, the Father, in Christ's Name, sent the Spirit to be with the Church. The witness of the Spirit to Christ is made to the world through the Church, which He guides, teaches, and sanctifies. The Church is open to all peoples. Thus the work of the Spirit in, and through, the Christian Church, fulfills the Divine, universal purpose expressed in the Old Covenant with Israel.
