Is the Holy Spirit God?

Before we get to that questions, many cultists believe the Holy Spirit isn’t even a Person let alone Almighty God.  The Holy Spirit, like Jesus (Phil 2:5-8) and the Father likewise (John 14:9), has humility as one of His attributes.  Since He also wrote the Bible (1 Pet. 2:21) it is difficult to see the traits of a person in the Scriptures.  Difficult, but not impossible; note the following:

  • The Holy Spirit teaches: John 14:26
  • He speaks: Acts 13:2
  • He makes decisions: Acts 15:28
  • He can be lied to: Acts 5:3-4
  • He forbids: Acts 16:6-7
  • He searches the things of God: 1 Cor 2:10-11
  • He apportions spiritual gifts: 1 Cor 12:11
  • He intercedes for us and has a mind: Rom 8:26-27
  • He glorifies Christ: John 16:13-14
  • He can be blasphemed: Mark 3:29
  • He is eternal: Heb. 9:14
  • He is omnipresent: Ps 139:7-10
  • He is omniscient: 1 Cor 2:10-11
  • He is omnipotent: Luke 1:35

 

So, the Holy Spirit show the attributes of God.  Is he ever called God?  He is called God directly by Peter in Acts 5:3-4.

Has He ever acted as God?  He, along with the Father and Son, raised Jesus: Rom 8:11, Gal 1:1, John 2:18-22.

From what you see here, you should be able to share with anyone that the Holy Spirit is not only a Person but God Almighty, third Person of the Trinity.
