The Personality of the Holy Spirit

Introduction

Every Christian believes that there is only one Elohim who is almighty, sovereign and everything has been created by him. Both the New and Old Testament insists that Elohim is the only person who should be worshipped since this is the cardinal truth. Despite the fact that Elohim is only one, the Scriptures present a view of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. The New Testaments presents a clear difference between the three but also claims that they are part of the same being. This causes people to ask questions about how the three can be considered one although they are clear differences. The Holy Spirit is the subject for consideration and his position can be judged by the fact that He is the third person spoken of in the trinity (White, 1906).

The Holy Spirit is a Person who lives in us and guides us throughout our lives. He is someone we can pray to and ask him to help us. He is also divine and deserves the same respect as the Father and the Son. He is not inferior to the Father or the Son because the three of them make up one being. It is through the Holy Spirit that Elohim works therefore, the Holy Spirit deserves all the respect and prayers. Without the Holy Spirit, the Church would face a lot of difficulties existing therefore; the importance of the Holy Spirit cannot be ignored.

Act, and make decisions. The Holy Spirit has all these qualities due to which He can be considered a person. The Holy Spirit can be considered the executive of the Father and can also be considered as the co-creator of the Universe because He and Elohim are the same being. He is also known as the author of the Scriptures since everything in the Scriptures has been written with His guidance. He is also the distributor of eternal life because just like Elohim, even the Holy spirits has an eternal existence (Hindson, 2008).
