THE KIND OF RELATIONSHIP WE ARE INTO

The Holy Spirit is not just an influence, one that gives the chills, or the being that grants the ability to speak in tongues. Yes, in tongues! The Spirit is so much more.

There is a description of Him that is pertinent in this month, because He is the only key to understanding the scriptures.

Jesus speaking to His disciples from John 16:12-13 says "I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. 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." Jesus clearly had so much to tell His disciples but realised that they could not receive those Words but He tells them that when the Spirit of Truth comes, He will gently but authoritatively unveil the meaning and relevance of the Word to them.

The Spirit is the author of God's Word and He alone is able to bring us the understanding of the scriptures and empower us to walk in the light of those revealed Truths. But for that to happen we must recognise Him as a person and nurture a relationship with Him. If any relationship is worth keeping, it is our personal walk with the Holy Spirit. The more we walk away with Him the better our vision would be. The better our vision, the more successes we will experience in our faith-walk.

Thanks to @gbenga and @jodi.pamungkas for this wonderful badge.

Thanks for reading

Oh yes the holy spirit is my companion and my teacher. I love Him.

Thank God for such provision, we are saved!

No, the Spirit is not a person, it is God's indwelling presence and power. It is a Spirit that comes from God, who is the Father. It is of His own Spirit that He sheds forth. It is the Spirit that joins us, but not a person.

Thanks for your contribution @pretradition, but two more things will I learn from you;

1: you as a person or personality, are you different from your spirit?

2: The spirit of God that joined with you, how is he dwelling in you, as a ghost or what?

Thanks as I patiently wait for your answer, if you wish we have a private chat then reach out to me @maxdevalue on steemit chat. Cheers.

No, I do not consider my Spirit to be a different person than myself.

I do not know the Spiritual realm so I don't know how God dwells in us or what a Spirit is like but the Bible teaches that He does, and that He does this through the Holy Spirit. God is a Spirit and He gives a Holy Spirit to those who are saved. I wish I knew more.
