RETURN TO THE: BIBLE PAPERS HOME PAGE

This paper discusses the Holy Spirit God Himself. God manifests Himself equally as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit at all times in all places. The Holy Spirit guides the Christian Church on earth supplying all the gifts, blessing, and grace from God. All scriptures are from the King James' version Bible.

INDUCTIVE COMMENTS:

THEME: God is a Spirit, and we should worship Him in spirit and in truth.

John 4:22-24 "Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. {23} But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. {24} God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth." True worship of God is by the Spirit & truth which is given to those that worship the Jewish Messiah Jesus whose name is salvation.

1 John 5:5-8 "Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? {6} This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth. {7} For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. {8} And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one." The Triunity Godhead is shown by the three: Father, Word, & Holy Ghost who bear witness in heaven as one that bear witness in earth as three agree in one.

PURPOSE: The Christian is centered about Jesus and led by God’s Holy Spirit to perfection.

Romans 8:1-2 "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. {2} For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death." Spirit of life in Christ Jesus - God's Spirit within the Christian empowers him to walk after the Spirit and not the flesh.

Romans 8:11 "But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you." Spirit of Him that raised up Jesus and His Spirit that dwelled in you - God's Spirit raises you to life from your spiritual death.

KEY VERSE: This is the fullness of the Holy Spirit.

Isaiah 11:2 "And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD;" Spirit of wisdom and understanding, Spirit of counsel and might, & Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD - God's Seven fold Spirit empowered Jesus ministry.

WHO: God mainly by Bible authors Isaiah, Daniel, Matthew, Luke, John, and Paul

TO WHOM: Elected Christians

WHAT: Holy Spirit is God who provides gifts, blessings, and grace to God’s elect.

The words Trinity and Triunity are not found in the Bible. However, the Triunity theological doctrine or teaching is found in the Bible to support one God, one essence, one being, one nature, and one divine Spirit who is indivisible which manifests Himself eternally as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit three distinct equal substances. The three manifestations always act in unity and agreement, and they have an order of Father to Son to Holy Spirit. They are not divided since there is a qualitative unique oneness acting in three separate personalities. What is most important is God can not be divided into three persons (as humans) which is not found in the Bible. If you see Jesus, you see the entire Godhead bodily (see Colossians 2:9). He is one God eternally always Father, Son, & Holy Spirit who shows Himself in these three characteristic ways. God is seen in His creation as in Romans 1:19-20, but His unique oneness can not be compared to or conceived by observing the created or nature order. His oneness is seen by His word the Bible.

Acts 5:3-4 "But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land? {4} Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God." You did not lied unto men, but unto God: Holy Spirit.

Romans 1:19-20 "Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath showed it unto them. {20} For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:" Nature in the creation shows there is a God.

WHY: To guide & direct the body of Christ, his church, on earth.

WAY: Every gift, blessing, & grace to Christian is from God’s Spirit as an intercessor, consoler: -- advocate, comforter.

John 14:16-18 "And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; {17} Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. {18} I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you." The Comforter is the Holy Spirit to abide with the Christian.

John 16:7-11 "Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you. {8} And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: {9} Of sin, because they believe not on me; {10} Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; {11} Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged." Holy Spirit is the comforter who was sent by Jesus and the Father to guide the Christians.

John 16:13-15 "Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come. {14} He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you. {15} All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall show it unto you." The Holy Spirit is means for Christian to center on Jesus.

Acts 8:15-19 "Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: {16} (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) {17} Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost. {18} And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money, {19} Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost." Receive power of Holy Ghost baptism by laying on of hand.

1 Corinthians 2:10-14 "But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. {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. {12} Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. {13} Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. {14} But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." The Holy Spirit of God knows all things and brings the person to Christ. The natural man can not receive Jesus as savior without the Holy Spirit.

1 Corinthians 12:1-14 "Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant. {2} Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led. {3} Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. {4} Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. {5} And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. {6} And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. {7} But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. {8} For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; {9} To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; {10} To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: {11} But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will. {12} For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ. {13} For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. {14} For the body is not one member, but many." Holy Ghost allows Christian to call upon Jesus as the Lord and will not let them curse Jesus. The Spirit gives the gifts including baptism to the Christians as He wills.

WHEREAS: The Christian is centered about Jesus and led by God’s Holy Spirit to perfection.

WHERE: Everywhere at anytime for whatever purpose.

WHEN: As Holy Spirit desires

Genesis 1:1-2 "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. {2} And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters." God created and the Spirit of God moved across the waters.

WHILE: The Christian is doing everything he can with His gifts.

Isaiah 9:6 "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace." The Triunity Godhead is shown in who Jesus is here.

Isaiah 48:16-17 "Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord GOD, and his Spirit, hath sent me. {17} Thus saith the LORD, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I am the LORD thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go." Jesus, LORD, is speaking here about the Triunity Godhead who is manifested in the LORD GOD and His Spirit.

Isaiah 63:8-14 "For he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he was their Saviour. {9} In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old. {10} But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them. {11} Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, and his people, saying, Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where is he that put his holy Spirit within him? {12} That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name? {13} That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, that they should not stumble? {14} As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused him to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name." The Father is speaking here about the Triunity Godhead. The angel of His presence who redeemed them is Jesus. They rebelled against Holy Spirit of God.

WANT: Not as the Christian wants, but as the Holy Spirit wants.

Ephesians 1:13 "In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise," Holy Spirit of promise - God's Spirit seals the Christian into salvation by His promise.

Ephesians 1:17 "That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:" Spirit of wisdom & revelation in the knowledge of him - God's Spirit provides wisdom, revelation, & knowledge gifts unto man.

WAIT: Wait for God to perform his work while living in faith.

Isaiah 61:1 "The spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;" Spirit of the Lord GOD - God's Spirit within the Lord Jesus as He started His ministry with these prophetic words.
