Subject: Who or what is the (s)Spirit? |
Bible Note: Hi Searcher, I am glad that others have told you that we do not use God. But I think that it is important to note also that God does not "use" us either in the sense of controlling us. The triune God leads us and teaches us, but He does not control us. As far as my question is concerned, that is, how many nouns and pronouns are in John 3:34; it is important to look at the sixth possible occurance (KJ, unto him). So the question now is, does God give the Spirit unto Him or to us? And in the context of verse 34a, who or what is the Spirit? From the heart, Ray |
