    He Taught That the Holy

    Spirit Is Not a Mere Influence Or

    Continued👆🏽 He taught that the Holy Spirit is not a mere influence or an impersonal force but God Himself, the One who speaks, teaches, guides, and rebukes. In 1 Corinthians 2:11, he proclaims: “For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so, no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.” This passage reveals a profound truth: just as a man's spirit knows his innermost thoughts, so too does the Spirit of God know the depths of God. If the Spirit knows what is within God, He must Himself be God, for none but God can comprehend the infinite. Furthermore, in Hebrews 3:7, Paul attributes the words spoken by God to the Holy Spirit, reinforcing the truth that He is fully divine. The Mystery of the Holy Spirit: Incomprehensible Yet Ever Present The Holy Spirit is beyond human comprehension. He is the breath of God, the power that moved the prophets, the wisdom that enlightened the apostles, the fire that descended upon the Church. He cannot be measured, grasped, or contained, yet He dwells within the hearts of the faithful. He teaches, rebukes, comforts, and sanctifies. He is not an abstract power, nor a distant force, but the Living God, one in essence with the Father and the Son, eternally worshipped and glorified. Glory to God, the Virgin, and the Glorious Cross! May the name of the Holy God be praised forever and ever in every tongue that He has created, today and always. May the blessings of God's mother, the virgin, and the cross be upon us. Amen. © John's Repentance Reach out to us on our social media platforms and share it with your friends: https://linktr.ee/johnsrepentance
