Hi bunmi, You don't know me, but I have been expressing on the forum lately about how I see the existence of the holy spirit [sic]. This holy spirit to my mind is what you have in mind when you ask "What is the role of the Holy Spirit [sic] as it [sic] affects each?" We speak of the Holy Spirit as "He". But I believe that the Scriptures speak of the spirit and the holy spirit as well. For instance, for Acts 2:17 I put the spirit in lower case. The spirit that was poured out is that which you both see and hear. Acts 2:33. We are filled with the holy spirit. We are filled with what we both see and hear. In Acts 2:4 the believers were filled with the holy spirit and spoke as the Spirit gave them ability. They spoke of the things that they had both seen and heard. They spoke of the mighty deeds of God. As we grow, we learn that there are a variety of gifts, ministries, and effects (1 Cor 12:4-6). The same Lord, the same God, is the same Spirit. Words of wisdom and knowledge are given by the same Spirit. 1 Corinthians 12:7, "But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good. For to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, and to another the word of knowledge according to the same Spirit;" Acts 2:16, "but this is what was spoken of through the prophet Joel: "And it shall be in the last days,' God says, 'That I will pour forth of My *spirit upon all mankind; and your sons and daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams;" So I see both the Spirit and the spirit in the Scriptures. We have received a spirit of adoption as sons and Romans 8:16 says, "The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God." From the heart, Ray |
