What a good watchtower, just a shame that Mr know it all thinks that he is the last word !
Sounds like you can’t deal with my arguments.
When you answer my question which is:
Show me ONE verse from the Bible that clearly tells us that the holy spirit is equal to God ? Or one verse that clearly says that the holy spirit is God ? And I am not talking about Matt 28 where all 3 are mentioned in the same verse or about lying to the holy spirit, but please can you show us all where it CLEARLY tells us that the holy spirit is equal to God and is God ?
It should not be that difficult for you, you say you read the Bible so just send me the chapter and verse which answer my question, that is all, no need for an explanation, just chapter and verse ??
I’ve provided this already in several places, but here it is again:
In the Hebrew Scriptures, the Spirit was so closely connected with Yahweh that no Jew imagined this Spirit was something other than Jehovah’s presence.
“The Spirit of Yahweh will rest on Him” (Isaiah 11:2)
“Who has encompassed the Spirit of Yahweh, or as His counselor has informed Him” (Isaiah 40:13)?
The Spirit was simply the manifestation or extension of God’s presence.
If this is the case, how would we decide if this Spirit is personal or impersonal? If the Spirit does things only a person would do, then the Holy Spirit is a person. While examples can be provided from the Hebrew Scriptures, the Christian Scriptures have the strongest support. The Spirit speaks (Acts 13:2, Gal. 4:6), testifies (John 15:26), hears and guides (John 16:13-14), prays (Rom. 8:26-27), has knowledge of God and man (1 Cor. 2:10-11), loves (Rom. 15:30), distributes spiritual gifts and has a will (1 Cor. 12:11), can be sinned against (Mark 3:29-30), and can be insulted (Heb. 10:29).
What about the divinity or deity of the Spirit (or lack thereof)? Here we see some of the most unique attributes of God being said of the Spirit.
“You also are being built together into a dwelling of God in the Spirit” (Eph. 2:22).
“Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence” (Psalm 139:7)?
“The depths of God no one knows except the Spirit of God.” (1 Cor. 2:11).
“The eternal Spirit” (Heb. 9:14).
