That is scriptures Wrangler. Let me cite a few.This is a trinitarian invention. The Spirit of '76 is not a person. You know that the Holy Spirit is NOT a person because we do not pray TO but FOR this Spirit. See Galatians 5 for the fruit of this Spirit.Tong2020 said: ↑
My view of the Holy Spirit is different. I view Him as a person. And scriptures are plenty that refers to Him as a person, not just some thing that isn’t a person.
John 14:26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.
Matthew 12:32 Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come.
Matthew 28:19
Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
1 Cor. 12:11 But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.
Romans 8:26 26 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession, for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
And so on and so forth.
And you still have the opportunity to address this part of my post:
“Did Jesus and the Father send the Holy Spirit? I guess this time your answer would be yes. If that is your answer, the following questions among many comes up:
1. Can Jesus send not a person?
2. Can the Father send not a person?
3. What is this Holy Spirit that Jesus and the Father sent, if not a person?
Many more questions comes out that argues against the idea that the Holy Spirit is not a person, but those will do, I guess.”
