Chapter 1 The Holy Spirit: The Infinite, Personal God
Still, what errors and heresies have crept into the church in the last two thousand years in relation to the Holy Spirit! How diligent we must thus be in studying and knowing about the person and work of the third person of the Godhead, the Holy Spirit. Pg. 2
“The Holy Spirit is a Person” Pg. 3
The Spirit may be heat and influence and power and communication, but before He is any of them, He is a person. He is as much a divine person as is God the Father or Jesus the Son.

1. The Scriptures use personal pronouns in referring to the Holy Spirit. (Acts 13:2, John 15:26, John 16:13-14)
2. The Scriptures ascribe personal traits to the Holy Spirit. The Spirit can be lied to, Peter says in Acts 5:3.
3. The Scriptures ascribe personal tasks to the Spirit. Scripture says the Spirit has the power of speech; (1 Tim 4:1, Rev 2:7, John 14:26, Luke 12:12)
4. The Scriptures ascribe personal characteristics to the Spirit. On four recorded occasions, Jesus refers to the Spirit as the “paraclete.” The word is derived from the prefix para and the root kalein. Together they mean “one who is called alongside.”
“So the Holy Spirit is a person; He is not an influence or quality or force or power or some emanation from God. He is as much a person as Jesus, but like the angels and the Father, the Holy Spirit does not possess a body.”
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS GOD Pg. 6
1. The Holy Spirit is expressly called God. In Acts 5:3–4
2. The Holy Spirit is the author of Old Testament verses spoken by Jehovah. (Acts 28:25, Is 6:9, 2 Peter
1:21)
3. The Holy Spirit displays all the perfections of God. The Holy Spirit is omniscient; He knows everything.
(1 Cor 2:10-11)
4. The Holy Spirit displays the sovereignty of God (John 3:8)
