Although John 16:13 proves that the Holy Spirit of Christ would not “not speak on His own accord,” but only what “He hears,” from the Father, the indwelling Spirit of truth would also be the Father’s own omnipresent Spirit in a new manifestation that God never had before the ascension of Christ (Ephesians 4:10; 1 Corinthians 15:45). That is why Jesus explained what he meant in the next verse (vs. 14) - “All things that THE FATHER HAS ARE MINE; THEREFORE I SAID that HE (the Father) will take what is mine and declare it to you.”
The Father would glorify the man Christ Jesus because the Father would “TAKE OF MINE” (The Father would TAKE OF Christ’s human spirit of priestly knowledge and intercession) “and declare it to you.” Hence, the things that belonged to the human Son are now made known to Christ’s true disciples through the Father’s indwelling “Spirit of truth” who was with the disciples as a man, but would later be in the disciples as the Father’s Spirit of truth which is Christ.
