Well said.
I've come to realise it's difficult to explain the Holy Spirit to anyone who still sees "him" as "it."
I pray we all have more understanding.

I recently realised when Jesus Christ was referring to the Holy spirit, He refered to him as Father.
We just have to study John 14 and pray for Rhema.
Pls is there any part of the scripture that the Holy Spirit appeared as a person? Also, in the book of Revelation the Seven Spirits of God was mentioned. Don't you think this makes God "ten in one"?

He always does. He indwells a person.
He in dwelled only Jesus Christ before crucifixion.
Now after ressurrection, He indwells every Christian who believes and confesses Jesus Christ as the Son of God.
That was why Mary didn't recognise Him in the tomb.
That was why the disciples didn't recognise Him all the time He reappeared to them.
He indwells anyone and everyone who believes.

In John 14:28 Jesus clearly states, The Father (Jehovah) is greater than Him but never mentioned the relationship between him and the Holy Spirit. In fact, I can't see anywhere in the Bible Jesus speaks about Holy Spirit being God.
Jesus always talks about Himself being in The Father and vice versa.
John 14:10 NKJV
John 14:11 NKJV
John 14:20 NKJV
John 17:23 NKJV
John 14:16‭-‬17 NKJV
The above is Jesus' description of the Holy Spirit (He called him a Helper) which would be sent by God... How come people refer to Holy Spirit as God ? and If He's God, is He greater than Jesus ? NOTE: I'M A BELIEVER I JUST NEED SOME CLARIFICATIONS.Modified: Changed Greatest to Greater
Yes, Jesus Christ is God, and no, this is not some endorsement of the trinity doctrine which is of men, lies, and not of God, who instead warned His followers not to submit themselves to the doctrines and traditions of men(including their churches) using His name. undecided

As is written in Scripture, Jesus Christ is God, and God(the Father) is God, but God(the Father) is not Jesus Christ. This is a logical case of A is B but B is not A. As for the relationship between Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit, well, it follows the same case. And all this happens to be explained in Scripture to all those who will KNOW the Truth of God from the lies of men. undecided


In Scripture, beginning in the Old Testament, we learn the following of God :
▪︎ God is God of Wrath
▪︎ God is God of Laws
▪︎ God is Good/Righteous
▪︎ God is Faithful
▪︎ God is Love
▪︎ God is True (Word)
▪︎ God is Life
▪︎ All Wisdom, Knowledge, and Understanding are of God
.....
And of Jesus Christ, we are informed by Him, particularly in John 14 vs 6, that He is
▪︎ God's Truth (Word)
▪︎ God's Life
▪︎ God's Law (one of many) aka The Way
.....
Now as for the Spirit of Truth whom Jesus Christ said is the Holy Spirit, well, He is, as Jesus Christ made clear, He is subject to Jesus Christ
▪︎ God's Truth(Word) in the person of Jesus Christ

So, if you look closely, you will see that all of them share the same root which is God the Father, yet Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit aren't God the Father. undecided
