John 5:22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: 23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
That is the will of God hanging over every believer in Jesus Christ in how we shall be judged.
The Holy Spirit is not mentioned in this place of honouring God the Father by. Neither is the Holy Spirit mentioned below in how God the Father is glorified by.
John 13:31 Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him. 32 If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.
Why isn't the Holy Spirit mentioned? His role as the Divine Witness ( yes, He is God) and the will of God excludes Him from worship. Consider this below:
John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. 14 He shall glorify me:
The role of a witness excludes leading anyone in seeking their own glory, thus there would be unrighteousness in God for those led by the Spirit of God to seek the glory of the Holy Spirit.
John 5:31 If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.
John 7:18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
John the Baptist knew his role as a witness meant he had to decarese so that He may increase.
John 3:28 Ye yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him. 29 He that hath the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which standeth and heareth him, rejoiceth greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled. 30 He must increase, but I must decrease.
So as we read the following verses, how can the Holy Spirit lead us to speak of Himself in seeking His own glory?
John 15:26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: 27 And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.
Answer: He cannot because He would not, but errant believers & wayward churches will err, not knowing the scripture. And when you have the errant Nicene creed leading many astray for its lack of scriptural validation of having the Holy Spirit worshipped with the Father & the Son, then may the Good Shepherd help us to have this single mind of Christ in how we worship & glorify God in Jesus Christ.
Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
It is the same to be had in fellowship:
1 Corinthians 2:2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
And in the hymnals:
Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. 17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
Since the indwelling Holy Spirit is still pointing believers to go to the Father by way of the Son, to testify of the Son in seeking the glory of the Son, and thereby the Father's as well, we should also. This is why the Son is the Bridegroom as we are to be the chaste bride in relating to God through the Son. That is why all invitations points to the Son and none to the Holy Spirit because there are false spirits in the world that would seek to get inbetween us and the Son with signs and lying wonders so may the Good Shepherd enable believers to see the truth that the Son may set them free & return to our first love in prayer, in fellowship, in songs, and in worship. Amen.
