Christ received the Holy Spirit from the Father. It's origin is the Father. Act 2:32 This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses. Act 2:33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear. Never does Christ state the Holy Spirit is a different "person". The Holy Spirit is a SPIRIT of a person. Romans 8:11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. The Spirit of Him (the Father) raised Jesus from the dead. Elsewhere the Father himself is given that same exact credit. How can that be? Because the Spirit of the Father is still the Father, just as a Spirit. Galatians 1:1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead) Of course where is the Holy Spirit origin? Whom does this Spirit proceed from? John 15:26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: Here we are told two times where the Holy Spirit originates from. |

Just wanted to offer a scripture to one of the statements you made: "Never does Christ state that the Holy Spirit is a different "person." If I understand the scripture correctly; Acts 1:4 states: "And,being assembled together with them, Commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the Promise of the Father, which, said He, you have heard of Me. I believe Jesus is saying that they also heard of this promise from Himself, which the promise is the Holy Spirit! I hope this makes sense to you. Have a Great Day! John Ryals |
