The Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit:

The Holy Spirit is the third person in the Trinity[1]. He is God and has all attributes of God[2]. He is a person, thus having a personality. He can be grieved[3], quenched[4], and resisted[5]. He is the promised comforter[6] that Jesus promised to “send” [7]once Jesus ascended. He has many functions. He helped in the creation of the world[8], and is actively re-creating each believer into a God honoring vessel[9]. He convicts, reproves, sinners of sin[10]. He indwells[11], sanctifies[12], and seals[13] each believer at the point of salvation. He also empowers[14] and teaches[15] each believer, changing them into the image of Christ[16]. He imparts differing gifts to every believer [17]that, when used, enhances the kingdom of God[18]. Because he is God, He should be worshiped as God.
