Holy Spirit is the presence of God in us . Jesus said he must go away that he can send us the promise , Holy spirit who will never leave us.. Read the scriptures in John. Holy Spirit is our comforter, our advocate, our teacher, our power to be Christ witness, the spirit of Truth. He is God in us .
Since the Holy Spirit is fully God, along with the Father and the Son, it doesn't seem wise to confine who He is to a creature's experience. Before there were any man in the cosmos or any cosmos for that matter, the Holy Spirit is.
This is correct and wise. The Holy Spirit is what lets us remember who we were before we were baptized, or before we symbolically joined the church and commit to God. It's how we grow bones just like any other Human and Animal.
Hello! Thanks for posting these. I remember that Jonathan once explained why he and his brother don't use references as an academic scholar would do... do you know where to find that?
Yes, it does matter. Here's a quick breakdown: ua-cam.com/video/meE1Ocwiv4A/v-deo.html Very complicated issue. Don't expect to understand it right away. Hell, I'm not 100% solid on it yet.
LOL! I have so much respect for you, Jonathan, but the reason Christians struggle to explain the Holy Spirit like you just did, is because of unnecessary dogma. John, using his Greek approach, explains that the Logos was both with God and was God at the beginning. It is outside dogma, but if we look at this in terms of Neoplatonism we can make perfect sense of the Holy Trinity: There is Jesus, the physical incarnation of God who walked upon the earth.... there is God the Father, who is the conceptual center or geometric point "identity" of God.... and there is the Holy Spirit, which is the pneuma, logos or nous, the pervading and radiating all present emanation of God in a decentralized aspect. From the perspective of Greek philosophical influences, the Trinity has a clear structure and the Holy Spirit is simply the pantheistic "World Soul" aspect of a God we mistakenly and traditionally identified as a point identity. It solves ancient Greek philosophical and religious questions about the nature of the one versus the many, and I consider it the fundamental and transcendent accomplishment of Christianity in terms of capturing truth.

What about the relationship between the Holy Spirit and Sophia?

You can find it on this channel. The clip is called 'Why Matthieu and I Don't Cite Our Influences'
What's a difference between Eastern Ortodox and Roman Catholic view on Holly Trinity? Is it relly matter?
You're about to get 1000 years of competing theology on that one my dude

Thank you very much! Everything is much more clear regarding the nature of the Holy Spirit.
