The Holy Spirit, a separate person, essence of God, or force?

[NickHassan]

Hi,
To be baptised in the Spirit is to receive the Spirit of Christ into your soul.

Acts3
19 Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.

20 And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:

21 Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.

Love in Christ, Marty Marty thanks for your answer ,but no it does not really answer my question OF WHO OR WHAT IS THE HOLY SPIRIT ?

The Holy Spirit is God's Spirit, and in 1 Co. 2, the Apostle Paul states:

Quote

1Co 2:11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

And Romans 8:

Quote

Rom 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. Rom 8:15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. Rom 8:16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:

And so, do you know that you have a spirit? Do you know what that spirit is?

God also has a Spirit, and so, if you know what is your spirit. You will know about God's Spirit also.

Jesus said the following. Maybe, this will give you a hint:

Quote

Jhn 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life

So God as a spirit , so he is a being ? Right, I think so , do you

But if God is a spirit then his spirit means that he is form spirit , but as the being he as a living spirit , meaning that he as a well defined will , of his own

And his will can be defined as the only truth , to all creation,

Right, I think so , do you But if God is a spirit then his spirit means that he is form spirit , but as the being he as a living spirit , meaning that he as a well defined will , of his own And his will can be defined as the only truth , to all creation,

What the scripture that states that “God is a spirit” means to me is that there is a certain personality that manifests the character of God. A person is defined by the life that he lives. That really tells us who that person is.

That scripture to which you refer states:

Quote

Jhn 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

And the scriptures states that “God is love”, and the scriptures state that Jesus is “the express image of God's person”. And we, as God's children, should be manifesting that same spirit of truth and of love.

Quote

1Jo 4:8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

Quote

Heb 1:3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

And the scriptures state that the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Truth that proceeds from the Father:

Quote

Jhn 15:26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:

And there are a couple of other scriptures which I will post below:

Quote

Jhn 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? Jhn 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

Quote

1Jo 5:20 And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

And so, the spirit is the life that one lives in the body. It is the spirit or the life that one lives deternines who you are. If you say that you are a Christian, your life should reflect this, if not you are a “hypocrite”.

Love in Christ,
Marty

MT 23:3 therefore all that they tell you, do and observe, but do not do according to their deeds; for they say things and do not do them.

Mk 7:6 He replied, “Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you hypocrites; as it is written:
“ ‘These people honor me with their lips,
but their hearts are far from me.
Mk 7:7 They worship me in vain;
their teachings are but rules taught by men.’
Mk 7:8 You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to the traditions of men.”
Mk 7:9 And he said to them: “You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order to observe your own traditions!

Hi Pierre:

The soul is the mind, the will, and your emotions.  Your spirit is the life that you live in this flesh body.

The life that you live dictates who you are.

The scriptures state that Jesus “is the express image of God's person”, and we are being conformed to His image as God's children. We have seen the Father through the life that he lived in obedience to God's Word. He said that it was “Father dwelling within Him that was doing the works”. (John 14)

God is invisible, but we can see him through the life that he as lived and does live.   People should be seeing Him manifest through our lives.

I don't why you want to get off track with what I am discussing with you.  You wanted to know about the Holy Spirit and I have tried to help you with this.  I hope that I was able to help you.

Of course God means what He says.  Who said that he did not?

Love in Christ,
Marty

No, and no, the mind is not our soul, because it would be a lie:the mind that sin will die:,
God as also a soul , but he also has a mind those are two separate things,

So we disagree and so no you did not help me with the holy spirit , because you are mix up in the verses that I quote you

Just as I do not believe that the spirit that return to God means anything other than the breath of live that was given to Adam in his nostrils at his creation and so transmitted to us all born of him,

It seems that you still do not know what the word Spirit means

God made man in his own image. The first Adam was made a living soul, like God in that he had a mind, a free will, and emotions.

God breathed the breath of life and man became a “living soul”.

And yes, “the soul that sinneth it shall die”, and yes, God has a mind, a will, and emotions or a soul, and we are like Him in this respect, even without being born again. But although he does have a mind, a will, and emotions, He cannot be tempted with evil, and of course, he is eternal and will never die.

And also, as born again Christians, our soul will be saved through the spirit of obedience, and by the blood of the lamb.

But if I did not help you to understand the Holy Spirit, then all I can say, is that I tried.

God, s soul is not his mind , God mind is like ours you can change it, as per our soul we cannot change it, see if you have sinned you are guilty and so should die, it does not matter when you have sinned, that was not in the judgment,

So when God envited us to change our ways , we do it with our mind and in practice and in time we make changes to our soul but without erasing the previous entries, and so remain guilty of sin,

This is why we need the grace or forgivenes for the previous behaviors (sins)

You need to update your knowledge to scriptures truth, God bless

Hi 94,
If we have obeyed the command to repent and be washed and have had hands laid on to receive the Spirit then we can walk in the Spirit.

Feeding on the word we can see the light of understanding grow brighter each day as we approach the earthly kingdom

Is 60

Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.

2 For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.

3 And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.

4 Lift up thine eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to thee: thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at thy side.

5 Then thou shalt see, and flow together, and thine heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto thee, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto thee.

[Wakeup]

So called born again can always be unborn again.
Worse than before.

wakeup.
