Bible Note: Hi Bill Mc, I definitely believe that the Holy Spirit is a Person of the triune God. Let me first go to Rom 8:10 where in your last post for emphasis wrote "THE SPIRIT IS ALIVE (present tense) because of righteousnness." The NKJ for that verse capitalizes Spirit and the NASB has it in lower case. The way you wrote it I don't know what your choice would be. I think that that is important in order to see whose righteousness is being spoken of, and what Spirit has the power. I agree with you that we have eternal life now, from the minute we put our faith and trust in Christ. Can you give me a reference verse for "He dwells in you through the Holy Spirit?" I look forward to talking more with you. I'm sorry that I took so long in answering you here. |
