Chapter 11
What about the Holy Spirit?
Most who believe in a Supreme Being believe that God and the Father are One and the same. Nothing much needs to be added to that statement. This book has proven that Jesus Christ is God the Son. The Holy Spirit makes up the third Person of the Holy Trinity. This chapter is not meant to be a thorough study in the Triune Godhead. However, I would like to make some comments about the Holy Spirit and His place in the Trinity. That the vast majority of the Christian church believes in the Trinity is an established fact. Both mainline Protestantism and Roman Catholicism believe in the doctrine of the Trinity. This chapter will be short to comply with the Holy Spirit’s desire not to speak about Himself but to give glory to Jesus, the Son of God.
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. (John 16:13,14 – KJV)
What is the Trinity?
The Trinity is the Christian belief that there is one God (the Godhead) and that this one God exists as three separate and divine persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. They are not three separate gods which would be a violation of the Bible and the Ten Commandments. The Trinity complies with the monotheism of Scripture that there is only one God. While this teaching is difficult for us to understand, it is a truthful doctrine of God.
