1) The Holy Spirit is a person, and is God.

2) The Holy Spirit is Divine and infinite.

Life in the Spirit is glorious.

Holy Ghost (KJV) = Holy Breath

The Holy Spirit is a person,

• John 16:13 also uses a personal pronoun in describing the Spirit. The description of how the Spirit speaks mirrors how Jesus spoke, ie. Only what he hears from the Father.
• John 16:15, All the things of the Father have been given to Jesus and Jesus gives it to us through the Spirit.
• The Spirit is not an it or a force. The Spirit is the third person of the Trinity (John 15:26-Helper/Comforter comes). The Spirit is a person; he has a name, Comforter.

  • Intellect- Knows the thoughts of God because he is God. Full access to God and man
