3. Who is the holy spirit?
The holy spirit is god
He was created by God the
father & is a part of the
throne of god
A key scripture to remember:
“For there are three that bear record in heaven,
the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and
these three are one.” (I John 5: 7)

5. The holy spirit is life
It is the power of the holy spirit that
enables all things that live to have life
During creation he moved upon the face of the waters while the
earth was void & without form (Genesis 1: 2)
When Christ created man & breathed into him the breath of life
it was the Holy Spirit that made him a living soul (Genesis
2:7)
During our common life, the spirit of life
is lent to all who breathe until their
life span is over, afterwards the spirit
returns unto god the father
The holy Spirit is not only in mankind,
but goes through all things that exist,
and gives it the power to be and to remain
as the Father wills

6. He calls us out of sin
God speaks to his children through the holy spirit
The holy spirit gives us the ability to find god &
compels us to repent for our sins
He is also known as the spirit of truth
He teaches us about the Word of God including the 10
Commandments & Testimonies of Jesus Christ (St. John 14:
15-17)
When we learn about the Word of God we are being directed to
Christ & God the Father

7. Fruits of the holy spirit
As the holy spirit continues to work with us we
receive the fruits of the spirit
Love, Joy, Peace, Longsuffering, Gentleness, Goodness, Faith,
Meekness & Temperance (Galatians 5: 22-25)
The fruits of the spirit are characteristics that
Christ also has; therefore, when we we have the
fruits of the spirit we become more like our
savior

8. Gifts of The holy spirit
The holy spirit bestows spiritual
gifts to us according to the will
of God the father
Wisdom, Knowledge, Understanding, Faith,
Healing, Prophecy, Discerning of spirits &...etc.
(I Corinthians 12: 7-11)
Though some might say jumping, dancing &
screaming are manifestations of the Spirit the
spiritual gifts above truly indicate that an
individual has received the Holy Spirit
How do you know for sure?..Try the Spirit by the
Spirit (I John 4: 1)
Remember the Holy Spirit gives you
understanding and the ability to discern between
truth & lies

9. The holy spirit is an
intercessor
An intercessor is one who
makes a prayer, petition or
entreaty in favor of another;
one who serves as a link
between two parties
The Holy Spirit is a link
between us, Christ & the
Father
It is the spirit that brings our
prayers up to heaven (Romans
8: 26)

10. The holy spirit is a
comforter
Prior to Christ being crucified he promised
that he would bring us a comforter (St. John
14:16-17)
That comforter is the Holy Spirit
He comforts us because though we might feel
sorrowful he brings into remembrance the
hope of salvation that was preached by christ

11. Do not sin against the
holy spirit
The holy spirit even tries to convince the
wicked of righteousness
Eventually the holy spirit will leave a person
who continues to sin & is hardened in iniquity
In other words, this person has sinned against the Holy Spirit &
there is no longer space for repentance (Mark 3: 28-29)
Why is this so?.....it is through the Holy Spirit that one is able to
repent and walk in the truth; thus, without him a person continues to
sin no matter what

12. The holy spirit’s work
is not complete
One of the works of the Holy Spirit that we are
all waiting for is the time when he comes on the
whole world during the last days
At the time he will change the hearts of all of
God’s children turning them to righteousness
The whole world will witness the gifts of the
spirit through god’s people such as the gift of
healing & the working of miracles
Christ will also baptized his children with fire
of the holy ghost changing our flesh to
immortal flesh (Matthew 3: 11)
