I'm sorry you feel that way.

The answer is not necessarily, is this the same as the Spirit of God, if so when lying to the Spirit you lie to God also because it is his Spirit.

Here are a few more scriptures then to consider: Genesis 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of (H7307 HC/cbsc) God (H430 HNcmpa)moved upon the face of the waters. The Spirit of God is a possessive noun...

Yes, that would be great, I also wish that test results could be gotten more quickly like a pregnancy test. That too will probably not happen.

I doubt that we will see it here as well.

Are you saying then that if God hasn't worked in me the same as he has in you, then clearly there is something wrong? I personally know that God's Spirit is in me. There are ways to be certain of this some are mentioned in 1 John under trying the spirits and other ways throughout God's word...

Hong Kong vending machines dispense Covid-19 test kits (msn.com)

I believe that I have been respectful. I have to wonder though at the attack, is this really the way Christ would handle this if he was here.

Thanks all for sharing your thoughts on this topic. A special thanks to Dave for the loving manner he has approached this topic. Perhaps this will be a help for others on this subject as well.

On topic, This thread stated up front that I had questions regarding the nature of the Spirit. I then asked for scriptures that have given others clarity regarding the Spirit. We can discuss these two scriptures more fully in context if you like in another thread. Which would make a great...

They were apparently quite clear for you, this I understand. I also know that they will become clear to me. The rest God will also make clear because God knows my heart, mind, thoughts and imaginations far better than any man can. With God nothing is impossible (Luke 1:37) and all things do...

It is God through his Holy Spirit that reveals all things spiritual. Why God has not made these clear to me yet, I don't know. I have prayed about it and so I know that matter will become clear. A great many things are very clear. How and when God answers prayer is not up to me. I will put...

Thanks Dave. I also consider grammar, many languages are more careful than modern English when it comes to case. An inanimate object can be masculine, feminine or neuter which is unlike modern English. Greek grammar is far easier than Hebrew though IMHO. For those who might think otherwise...

I've read the Bible more than a dozen times from cover to cover. I spend a great deal of time in the Bible. Without reading the entire Bible one cannot have any sense of the general context of it. The Bible reveals a great deal about the nature of the spirit through out it's pages. I didn't...

I try the spirits regularly to verify that they are of God. It's important though to read the entire book though to understand all of the tests.

Thanks, Yes I still have questions about the Holy Spirit, I'm leaning towards him being God. Is God spirit, this is very clear to me that yes God is spirit. There are many scriptures that make this clear through out God's word.

Without God's Spirit there is no spiritual understanding. The understanding that I have is all from his Spirit. Does this mean that a true Christian doesn't have questions? Of course not in fact one of the primary ways that I approach my Bible studies is with questions never assuming that I...

Acts 5:3 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? Acts 5:4 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...

The Spirit is called "God's Spirit" and "My spirit"

Is the Holy Spirit God or is the Spirit of God? There is a very real difference. So this scripture doesn't make it evident to me.
