“For it is not only because of Christ that we come to know the Spirit more fully, but actually in Christ. Indeed, it is apparently a principle of the divine Spirit’s working that he declines to disclose himself in any other way (Jn. 16:13-15). He will not be known as he is in himself apart from Christ. Before the Spirit rests permanently on all the faithful children of God, he must first rest on the uniquely faithful Son of God (cf. Jn. 1:33).”
