nick,yes the HS brings the fruit. So it was the HS in jesus and us that brings that fruit. Hence the HS IS that original SON as spirit. Look at Gen 1 closely. and then read proverbs 8:27.1In the beginning GOD created the heavens and the earth. 2The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the SPIRIT OF GOD…[Read more]

Nick,Acts 10:38 seems to support what I am saying. Jesu sthe man was baptised with the HS/spirt of christ/son of god and became one of gods sons in the flesh.Gene, I think I agree with what you just stated.

One other thing, Proverbs 8 says:Proverbs 8:1919″My fruit is better than gold, even pure gold, And my yield better than choicest silver. We know it sthe HS that brings forth the FRUIT of the spirit. So Wisdom in Proverbs is the HS, not Jesus. Its the Spirot of god which is the son of god without flesh as I see it.Jeff

Nick,I agree that we, like jesus, are born from above and become “sons of God.” But I think that its the original spirit of God which is THE son of god that brings us into that sonship.Proverbs makes it clear that something was brought forth and that something created. Gen 1 makes it clear that the something creating with God at the start was the HS.jeff

Nick, can u move this into the larger HOLY SPIRIT list so as to not be duplicating. I posted in there since you brought up that post that was already there by posting in it.Gene, I most definitely understand gen 2:7 and what a soul is and would agree with some of what I think you are saying. But not all. I will post a responce in the other post…[Read more]

I thought I would repost some of my thoughts here since this seems to be where the HS discussion is. I would love to hear thoughts on the matter.The Holy spirit, I think IS the Son of God. We see in genesis that there are only 2. There is God and the world is created THROUGH the HS. The first thing he creates is LIGHT. (This is a whole topic…[Read more]

Thankyou for the welcomes! Any thoughts on the question? I havent seen any posts on the HS yet. I am sure someone must have commented on this at some point but I have not yet seen it. After all there is nothing knew under the sun.God BlessJeff
