<h2>471. UPPER ROOM MEETINGS</H2>
<p>The "upper room" in Jerusalem was a place which was memorable because of what occurred there. It was in the upper room that Christ uttered those words which we have recorded in the 14th, 15th, 16th, and 17th chapters of John. I remember a good brother at a prayer meeting in Peterhead, in the north of Scotland, praying for a mission, which was to be conducted by myself, asking that we might have "upper room meetings." I quickly responded "Amen!" What kind of meeting did Christ have in the upper room? The following seven P's will indicate what is associated with the meeting of Christ and His disciples in the upper room.<p>
<p>1. Promise of Christ's return (<a id="fem471-si1" onClick="return mV('Jhn',14,'1-7');">Jhn 14:1-7</a>).</p>
<p>2. Presence of the Holy Spirit to comfort and help (<a id="fem471-si2" onClick="return mV('Jhn',14,'16-26');">Jhn 14:16-26</a>).</p>

<p>4. Progress in fruit - bearing through abiding m Christ (<a id="fem471-si4" onClick="return mV('Jhn',15,'1-17');">Jhn 15:1-17</A>).</p>
<p>5. Persecution from the world through our association with Christ (<a id="fem471-si5" onClick="return mV('Jhn',15,'18-25');">Jhn 15:18-25</A>).</p>
<p>6. Power of the Holy Spirit through the believer, convicting of sin (<a id="fem471-si6" onClick="return mV('Jhn',16,'7-14');">Jhn 16:7-14</A>).</p>
