The Lord Jesus as Incarnate God, the Man-God during His tenure on earth.
The Holy Spirit, alighted Him, descended from Heaven. The Heavens were opened as if it were a portal just for this to happen because before Jesus descended into the under realms--lower realms, the gate to heaven was closed up. Fiery flaming swords and cherubs guarded the gate. Genesis.
How do angels descend? Through the Gate? This Gate was for man to traverse in and out of Heaven before sin came and freely, just for man; was able to go back and forth. Open Gate.
Angels did not need a gate, nor the Holy Spirit.
Jesus as the Man-God, had been given power to cure, to evangelize, to do what He willed--God the Father's purpose and will: God's Will be done.
Jesus, said to His apostles and the disciples before sending them out to evangelize, I give you power of miracles, to heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers and if you have the love, you can cast out demons. To which one of the Apostles was successful in casting out a demon (later episodes this is told).
The power of the Holy Spirit is one that created worlds, the Universe and every flesh body for souls to inhabit. A power unfathomable. Created an embryo for Jesus in the Immaculate Womb.
But it takes a pure unselfish heart to have Him to do the works Jesus did. A Jesus like ego. The Human ego tainted with vice, cannot have the Holy Spirit alighting and dwelling in them until the these are cancelled out of the ego--gone--. Rather, humility, generosity, purity, holiness, pious, sanctity, good willed. We are works in progress, faith hope charity in the hearts flourishing. Flowers of virtues. Virtuous living.
Love being the core of the being's heart and soul. Thoughts and ways formed in love to love.
Thus, Jesus said, if you have the love in you, you can cast out demons. Jesus does not say things that cannot be done by us. He said, If you love Me, you can do the works I do. Love is the key and the way.
Let's ponder on Elijah, a man chosen by God to do God's will. God gave to Elijah this same power to some measure--we do not know how much, and it really doesn't matter how much, because God made it so, he had Grace and the power of God.
He was able to raise a dead child. Because Elijah's will was one with God's will, fused. He was able to call down fire from above. God made Elijah capable and Elijah obeyed the Lord. Raised on the Law and precepts of God and was in the justice of God. A man in holy ways of God, his character, his heart, his mind, all formed in justice of God. Virtuous. Wise. Humble.
The instance of Jesus transfigured on Mt. Tabor where Moses and Elijah appears to Jesus. Elijah's light was fiery like the sun. His eyes flashed fiery flames. He is in God's presence at that moment, descended to the earth on a mountain top. Elijah is Beloved of God.
St. John speaks of what we need to do to become Beloved of God. His epistles and his Gospel.
Let's focus now on the power of God given to a man like unto Elijah, a prophet of God. A man in flesh, with the organs and bones, and heart, will, soul. He had time to form himself after the manner which God had set. Gave Elijah time to grow and form.
In the times of Moses, the Lord said, I will give wisdom to the craftsman to make, the Ark and the tools necessary. God furnished them wisdom.
God made them capable.
Thus, Jesus had the power of the Holy Spirit to cure, and to evangelize and to give power to the Apostles who were not yet, Baptized by the Holy Spirit. Jesus prepared them to have Grace returned to them and prepared them for the complete ministry. He said, what I do you can do also. For they loved Jesus, not perfectly as He would have liked them to at that precise moment, but later as they had Grace, Holy Spirit, they continued to increase. As the Lord said, the Holy Spirit will make your capabilities immeasurable, will come to you and make your capabilities immeasurable, just like Jesus as the Man-God. Now this seems impossible to the many. But what Jesus states is doable for anyone who loves Him, regardless of the knowledge one has. Jesus said be seekers of God and He will enlighten us. It is always God who provides, for God created the earth to make the bodies of flesh. God provides what is necessary for His will to be done. Nothing more.
Jesus even said, all the words in the dictations has enough light to illuminate the world many times over. This means by absorbing all the books of Poem, and justly with humility one is illuminated to illuminate the world. Souls to be illuminated. God is that powerful. We learn in levels and stages.
Jesus, appeared to John of Endor, invisibly to John, while John was at Antioch with Syntyche, but spiritually fully present and gave John lessons to prepare John for heaven.
The power given is for the work of the ministry to bring to souls, cures, and evangelize them. Not for abuse and self ego. But for God's will.
To have souls ready for Heaven.
Jesus appears to souls invisibly to cure them, teach them, lead them to Grace, and then Grace, the Holy Spirit prepares souls for to do Jesus' will while living here. The Lord. God works in concert with Each Other for the good of man. The Triune God.
Jesus while on the earth mystically cured many souls who really did love Him.
Jesus explained to His Apostles and disciples that it is fatigue to be around people if He is not curing them nor evangelizing them--active--in God's will. Thus, He spent hours in prayer because it brought Him peace. To commune with His Father. To have the Refreshing waters dousing His soul, heart, mind. To refresh and prepare for the next village of people.
Every time Jesus spoke to crowds, He spoke what they needed to hear and have from Him. He cured, evangelized and gave to the poor. Different words were spoken mostly in parables to the many circumstances that appeared before Him. He went back to those places that were at first hostile to Him, but over time they mended their hostility. He would say in words if they were good or severe. Thus many parables were spoken to bring about what that crowd was like unto, individually and as a whole.
Then we can read Apocalypse the Book, in the chapters pertaining to the seven churches. He speaks the same way. Severe love or kind love, but always love. Love to bring back the erring with severity and love to encourage further those who love with sweetness and do what He says.
So, He says work to deserve sweetness from Me. When you err, ask Him to aid in correcting the error. A Father. A Teacher. The Supreme Pontiff.
The power Jesus gives is in proportion to our individual state of heart and soul, if just, then the soul is able to grow greater flourishing, if mediocre, then scanty. Like the parable of pertaining to the soil which seeds fell on. Our soil-hearts. Arid; shallow; deep; to deep; quicksand; mud, or good soil nurtured with good minerals and manure. The sower went out to sow. Jesus is the sower. Drops seed.
The power to become sons of God is what St. John the Beloved states in his Gospel. To then prepare our souls to receive the en-grafted word.
Grafts. Seed. Plant.
Peace be with you always
