Who is the Holy Spirit?

God the Father is revealed in the Bible through his creation, his acts in history, and through metaphors and prophecies. Jeus Christ, the Son of God, is described in the New Testament gospels as a historical person who was seen, heard, and touched by his disciples. But God the Holy Spirit, the third person of the Trinity, is far more mysterious and elusive.

This studyguide offers biblical insights to help you come to a deeper understanding of the Holy Spirit as you discover how he works in our lives. You'll learn the unique role he plays in enabling us to live as children of God, in power and wisdom and unity, equipped for every good work.
