AMPLIFIED 2015 | Hebrews 1:3 The Son is the radiance and only expression of the glory of [our awesome] God [reflecting God's Shekinah glory, the Light-being, the brilliant light of the divine], and the exact representation and perfect imprint of His [Father's] essence, and upholding and maintaining and propelling all things [the entire physical and spiritual universe] by His powerful word [carrying the universe along to its predetermined goal].

Subject: Can everyone rec'd the Holy Spirit |
Bible Note: Hi Johnny, I would surmise from your personal profile that you believe in the Trinity and would thus say that the Holy Spirit is a Person and not an it. Are you thus saying that the holy spirit here in this verse is the good thing given rather than the Person? That is the interpretation that I am putting forth and I just wonder if that is also what you are saying here. Matthew 7:11, "If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father who is in heaven give what is good to those who ask Him!" Luke 11:13, My interpretation for what it is worth: "If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father from heaven give the *holy *spirit to those who ask Him?" The Greek is literally "Father from heaven". Let me know how you interpret the verses for I don't want to put words in your mouth. Also, could you tell me what you mean in your profile "Only one Holy Spirit". In other words, is the Holy Spirit God in your mind; and/or are the other two Persons one Holy Spirit in your mind.
