yes i believe so why?
Be kind and bear with me... My next scinario with a question at the end

A person is dieing in the hospital. His friend comes and visits him. They both claim to be of the spirit.
The friend prays to the Lord and asks if he could exchange places with the dieing man.
Now Jesus says there is no greater love than for a man to give his life for another.
Now the dieing person died. The friend lived. But...the friend offered his life in exchange for the dieing man.
My question: Would you say the friends prayer was a work of faith through the HS even though the friend was denied his request? It does say one of the fruits of the Spirit is LOVE and if you answer yes, that would prove through his loving works that he indeed had the HS abiding in him Yes?

Who is the Holy Spirit of God?
What can the HS do?
Why did Jesus send us the comforter (HS)?
Since we have The Holy Spirit, do we need anyone or anything other than the "Bible"?

Now take the best scripture you can find and answer these 4 questions.
Who is the Holy Spirit of God?
Answer:-The spirit of the Father

Mk 13:11 But when they shall lead [you], and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost.

same verse written by Matthew
Mt 10:20 For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.

What can the HS do?
Answer:- Everything that Jesus Christ did with the help of Holy spirit. but, part of it is only given to us

Eph 1:13-14... ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

G728 arrhabon ar-hrab-ohn' earnest
a pledge, i.e. part of the purchase-money or property given in advance as security for the rest.


Why did Jesus send us the comforter (HS)
Answer:-To seperate the children of God from the children of the world

Jn 14:17 [Even] the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

1C 2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

Since we have The Holy Spirit, do we need anyone or anything other than the "Bible"?
Answer:- ........:( i don't know. maybe Holy spirit leads us to the truth, which can come in the form of articles, internet,books interpreting the bible, different translations. I don't know.

I didn't say the last question correctly. I ment since we have the HS who will teach us all things and the bible, do we need anyone else or anything else to understand His Word, or do we need teachers and preachers?

But I liked all your answers.

Peace be with you, you don't talk like a person who is afraid of the HOLY SPIRIT. He offends you because the way you have commented about HIM and using initials like HS. This shows how much HE means to you and how much you honor HIM as HE represents CHRIST?
The LORD said; 'You can say anything against the SON of man and you can be forgiven but if you speak anything against the HOLY SPIRIT you can never be forgiven."
May GOD the FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST be merciful towards you.

i wonder why the first letter of satan in english bible is "capital letter" everywhere (Satan). Is it because the translators respect and honors him???
I did not see anything wrong in the post. He was just clearing his doubts. At least he is not keeping doubts in his mind and accepting whatever the world says. He's looking out for an answer from the scripture.

Peace be with you little Sanashankar, he as 'a senior member' knows the answers to his own questions that he posted in his tread. He is just fed up with some people in this forum going on and on about the HOLY SPIRIT, "ever learning but never come into the knowledge of the truth" about the HOLY SPIRIT. In the natural nature of frustration his post challenges and demands for answers, to quote from the Holy Scriptures about the HOLY SPIRIT.
How someone honors the Holy Trinity even in the writing pattern shows, in what ever circumstances they may face. This is not about how satan's initials used by other writers, because the Holy Bible has been translated in many versions and some times the significant initials are forgotten or ignored. But the HOLY SPIRIT is our Teacher and Helper who helps us to recognize these simple things. This is to differentiate between two, good and evil. One,s standard must be honored higher than the other, even highlighting in the Holy writings to distinguish them, also even to no short cuts in initials. This is a humble and humility witnessing, even in writings, as an unworthy servant of grace, concerned toward other's understanding, educated or uneducated to know, for those who come like a child to learn. Quick grown ups cannot stomach these because they have gone ahead of CHRIST's Teachings and Spiritual Revelational understandings from the HOLY SPIRIT, the living truth about humble and humility spiritual nature of the Kingdom of GOD.

As it is written; "Gentiles don't be proud............" You can be anytime removed, if you do not continue with the HOLY SPIRIT the anointing placed in you to teach the Holy Bible.
Then stop being a 'busybody' about other's who labor for CHRIST in GOD's building and plantation. This is forgivable and understandable because lacking in the knowledge about humble and humility of GOD's Love.
For now, it is wise to post your own opinion in answers about the posted tread. 'Please don't scatter what the LORD JESUS CHRIST through the HOLY SPIRIT is sowing in order to build and edify HIS church to train and equip true worshipers in spirit and truth for the FATHER.'
May GOD the FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST forgive you and bless you with spiritual humble and humility when handling HIS truth.
As it is written in order for someone not to be proud; "Many are called (into the Kingdom of GOD here on earth to grow) but only a few are chosen (to enter HIS place of rest, in the New Heaven and the New Earth)."
