The Holy Spirit in the Book of Acts

The Holy Spirit

It is hardly necessary to recall and affirm that the Holy Spirit is a divine person as the Father and the Son. The Lord taught his disciples to baptize those who were being saved among the nations in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, thus combining the three divine persons. Each one is God, all three being God, without God none is independent of other people. Pursuing one goal, animated by a single board, but acting separately according to the purpose of God for its fulfillment.

The Spirit of God is the agent of God's power in creation, we find that from the 1st chapter of Genesis.

That from the first page of the Word of God, we have to do with three persons of the Trinity, it lights up, because the subject is plural and singular verb when it comes to affirm God's power in creation: “In the beginning God.” How eloquent of all of us have God taking the top spot. We have to put first and foremost, above all, God in His authority in all that He is in Himself, in the fullness of who He is. Elohim (plural) created (singular) the heavens and the earth. Three divine persons united in a common purpose and acting jointly, so that the verb is singular. “Let us make man in our image”: The same is true when it comes to helping man on the scene. As the three people were at work in creation, they will also be in redemption.

The Father sent the Son into the world that we might live through Him. The Son came from heaven: “I came down from heaven not to do my will, but to fulfill the will of him who sent me.” He came through the eternal Spirit. The Father gives his Son, his book Son, the Lord Himself book: “No man taketh away, I lay it down of Myself,” he says, speaking of his life. Peter says that He offered Himself through the eternal Spirit.

God is the God of glory, the Father is the Father of glory, the Lord Jesus is the Lord of glory, the Spirit is also called the Spirit of glory.

The Holy Spirit in the Old Testament

The Spirit is therefore in the OT in various ways. It is he who will make some capable workers that God has chosen and qualified to carry out work extraordinarily hard. That represents the execution of a utensil such as a candlestick? From a single block of gold, take the pan of unsurpassed beauty. A foot, a central stem, leaving three rods on one side and three on the other, with fruits, apples, flowers, calyxes (22), all beaten with a hammer in one piece. Who is he, where did he acquire these professional qualities, the worker that God has chosen? in not craft schools in Egypt, but it is the Lord who says: “I met ...
