Bible Question (short): Holy Spirit, an impersonal force? |
Question (full): Bern, "Holy Spirit is constantly shown to be a power or force that the Father controls." If that is so, why is the Holy Spirit referred to as "he" and "him" in John 16:7-8 and 16:13-14? How could he, if merely an impersonal active force, bear witness John 15:26; feel hurt Isaiah 63:10; be blasphemed against Mark 3:29; say things Ezek 3:24, Acts 8:29, 10:19, 11:12, 21:11, Heb 10:15-17, Rev 2:7; desire Gal 5;17; be outraged Heb 10:29; search 1Cor 2:10; comfort Acts 9:31; love Rom 15:30; refer to himself as "me" Acts 13:2; be lied to and be God Acts 5:3-4? By the way, the Trinity is not a "triad" of three gods, but a Tri-unity of one God. Emmaus |
