He is the third person of the Trinity, the triune Godhead presented in Scripture: Father, Son,
and Holy Spirit. They are not three separate Gods, but one God manifested in three distinct persons
(Matthew 28:19; 1 Corinthians 12:4-6; 2 Corinthians 13:14; 2 Thessalonians 2:13-14; 1 Peter 1:2).
As the Father created and the Son saved, so the Holy Spirit’s ministry is to guide, equip, and empower
the follower of Christ. Because the Holy Spirit is a living personality, He can be submitted to,
rebelled against, or grieved (Acts 7:51; Ephesians 4:30; 1 Thessalonians 5:19). He understands and
communicates, comforts and counsels. Christ departed this earth and sent the Holy Spirit to dwell in
every believer (John 14:15-31).
