41 | HOLY GHOST OR HOLY SPIRIT??? | NT general Archive 1 | MrsBinGA | 38837 | ||
Holy "Ghost" is a KJV translation of the Greek word "pneuma", Strong's Exhaustive Concordance number 4151. Both words, Spirit and Ghost are a translation of this same Greek word. Even when the Bible speaks of "evil" spirits, as in Acts 19:15, it is the Gk. word "pneuma." We as finite humans cannot comprehend what Spirit is. Movies and secular books have portrayed "spirits" as transparent vapors with human-like features and we maintain that mental image even when it comes to the things of God. God the Father is not some "vapor-ghost". He has some type of tangible spiritual form/body that John in Rev. 4-5 could see. I've always been taught that the One sitting on the throne was Jesus. But in Rev. 5:7 it clearly states that the Lamb, who we KNOW is Jesus, comes and takes the book "out of the right hand of Him that sat upon the throne." This is too vast a subject to fully answer in a few paragraphs, but perhaps something I've said has been of help. |
