Is the Holy Spirit a Person or an Influence?
Manage episode 374279901 series 3299902
What's up with the Holy Spirit? Is the Spirit a person? Or is the Spirit a power or influence? As you probably know, this is a hot debate right now at least among some Seventh-day Adventists.
Many SDAs today assume that there was no diversity of views about the personhood of the Holy Spirit among the SDA pioneers. It is thought that since the pioneers were clearly and adamantly against Trinitarianism, they were clearly and adamantly against the personhood of the Holy Spirit. But this is not the case.
In this study, we take a look at the early history of this issue within Seventh-day Adventism, and the light God eventually gave to Ellen G. White to settle the matter
