The Deity of the Holy Spirit<\/p>\n
One way we see that the Holy Spirit is God is to see in the bible that the same attributes that are used to describe Almighty God is used to describe the Holy Ghost. There are some things that only God is. And when the bible ascribes these things to the Holy Ghost, then that\u2019s essentially telling us that he\u2019s God.<\/p>\n
