It is truly unfortunate that the word, `ghost`, was used to refer to the Spirit Of Christ Jesus.
The aversion to anything `ghostly` or `mysitical` caused religious thinkers to go so far as to separate the concept of Father from the Holy Spirit, elevating the Father to the first person of the godhead and demoting the Holy Spirit to the third person.
Many denominations even moved to exclude the Holy Spirit from the Christian experience and corporate worship.
This error resulted in trinitarianism, when the reality is that our Creator is Spirit Soul And Body just as we who have been created in His image.
The truth is
➛ God is Spirit
➛ the Spirit Of God is the Holy Spirit
➛ the Holy Spirit is our eternal, omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent Creator
➛ the Holy Spirit is the Father
➛ the Holy Spirit is the Spirit Of Christ Jesus
➛ the Holy Spirit is greater than the body and soul of Jesus
➛ the Holy Spirit has been given unto us
➛ the Holy Spirit should fill our bodies via Spirit Baptism
➛ the Holy Spirit is Christ in us
➛ the Holy Spirit is the Spirit Of Truth
➛ the Holy Spirit is the strength of Christ in us
Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away. |
May all believers in Christ Jesus come to understand that He lives in us by His Holy Spirit and without His Holy Spirit we are none of His.
Consider what John the Baptist said about Jesus:
Jesus saved us from hell so He could fill us with His Holy Spirit.
Fully receive Jesus by receiving and being baptized in His Holy Spirit.
The following is from Spirit Of God ⇒
The spirit of a being is the essence of that being, It is the qualitative part of the being containing its value system, its principles.
The Spirit Of God is pervasive in the universe. He is everywhere. He is the life force in everything that is living.
Is there more than one Spirit Of God?
➛ trinitarians would say yes
➛ the Word says no
I suppose trinitarians would take exception with my statement. But here is the reason for my accusation:
➛ God is a Spirit
➛ The Holy Spirit is obviously a Spirit
➛ Either the Holy Spirit is the only Spirit Of God or we have two Spirits of God
➛ If there are two Spirits of God, why not 3 or 4?
Why is understanding that the Holy Spirit is the One and only Spirit Of God so important?
➛ it eliminates polytheism
➛ it gives glory to the Holy Spirit
➛ it enables true worship
➛ it enables fellowship with God in you
Realizing that Jesus is the Spirit Soul And Body of God is critical for appreciating
➛ who He is
➛ what He said
➛ what He did
And without that realization what is our faith actually believing?
The greater our faith is In Christ Jesus, the more powerfully and effectively His Holy Spirit manifests in and though us.
Remember, we are to speak to the Holy Spirit Father in the name of Jesus. This is because Jesus is the only name whereby we are saved
Jesus is the name of God .
The Spirit Of God is the Holy Spirit is the Spirit Of Christ Jesus.
