Who is "the comforter"?

In King Solomon's writing's, "who" is Wisdom?

And before you go there, I am not gnostic.

Not that I have things against anyone that is, I just don't agree with some of their teachers...

Peace

The holy spirit.

Why the esoteric run around. Link the scripture.

If you serve the Creator God then serve Him.

He does not want you withholding light He gave you to share.

Link it

Jesus.

1 Enoch Chapter 42, XLII
1. Wisdom found no place where she might dwell;
Then a dwelling-place was assigned her in the heavens.

2. Wisdom went forth to make her dwelling among the children of men,
And found no dwelling-place:

Wisdom returned to her place,
And took her seat among the angels.

3. And unrighteousness went forth from her chambers:
Whom she sought not she found,
And dwelt with them,

As rain in a desert
And dew on a thirsty land.

Psalm 72:6, KJV

He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that water the earth.

Zechariah 10 1599 Geneva Bible (GNV)
10 1 The vanity of Idolatry.
The Lord promiseth to visit and comfort the house of Israel.

1 Ask you of the Lord rain in the time of the latter rain: so shall the Lord make white clouds, and give you showers of rain, and to everyone grass in the field.

Isaiah 11:2 King James Version (KJV)
2 And the spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;

Thank you very much, I am looking it up.

If you all can remain peaceable I will tell you plainly from experience, but that is up to the op.

Souls are perishing on this planet and you withhold what you claim is "light" so you can roleplay the mystical guru.

You are a servant of satan.

Not God.

Shame on you.

And I would never play games with you dear brothers and sisters, but it is obvious some of your are set in you ways and I can't help you when you are like that...

Peace

Charlatan

Lol...as you wish

My dad was very interested in the role and person of the Comforter later in his life.

He learned that the Comforter is the Holy Spirit of God,
third person of the Trinity and as much 'God' as Jesus or the Father.

When the Holy Spirit indwells the man, it puts God back into the man .. as he was originally created. (Adam and Eve)

The fact of the indwelling Spirit of God also demonstrates that Christ's sacrifice on the Cross was accepted by the Father for the forgiveness of our sins.

God won't dwell in a body full of sin.

The Holy Spirit is not a 'mediary' between God and man ...
He is God.

Yes .. very thought provoking post .. Thanks!

Who supposedly is the "Quranic Yashua,Isa"oh all knowing OP?

The Holy spirit is not a he,try again.

No idolater shall see the kingdom of heaven. Which name do you want written on your forehead, the Father's? Or "the mystery trinity god" of Babylon?

I'm not all knowing, I wish I was. The Quranic Jesus is not the Son of God, and he wasn't crucified; so it's a false Jesus.

There was a time wherein a person I loved deeply was dying. I could not get there fast enough. Unfortunately, it required a lot of travel to get there. It hurt in my body and so deeply it was a spiritual pain. A soul pain. After all, I am a spirit and soul temporarily encased inside a 3 dimensional physical body. 3 parts of one personhood. Funny how it's 3 aspects in 3D. Almost like it was planned that way.

I wished that I could send my spirit to this person immediately, but I do not have capability to do so. I am unable to separate the 3 aspects of my personhood, as a terrestrial creature. Neither am I omnipresent and able to be everywhere at one time. God made me in His image, but I remain limited to this 3 dimensional and not omnipresent physical body. So, like any human I took all 3 parts of my one being and got on the plane.

In humanity we are one expression seen, the other two hidden, yet those two are alive and active right now. Maybe even more active than we can understand. In fact, all three are us. Same us, 3 ways. Different expressions.

It's really something to discover that God is not limited to a spirit encased in a physical body being in one place at one time with all three aspects traveling with that physical body, like we are. God is able to do whatever He wills to do with all of the parts, or expressions, of His one being. He is also everywhere right now. Everywhere. At the same time. I know, it's mind blowing, isn't it? God resides in a higher dimension yet His eyes go to and fro throughout the whole earth.

What an amazing God. To send His human expression that people could see and touch that we might identify with and have a personal connection to our very Creator. Then, to send His spirit until our unseen parts are separated (I like the word, freed) to join Him. He is a comforter without which, I would surely die inside.

That said, you may call your comforter whatever you like. I'd rather describe Him because a title alone does no justice to all that His comfort means to those in whom He lives. It's a relationship. Describing that relationship is the same as describing anyone that I love. Easy. Effortless. Natural.

You do certainly resist the Holy Ghost ...

'Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye'

I simply leave you with this:

Matthew 12:31
Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.

DO NOT blaspheme the Holy Ghost.

So then why is it that Jesus had to return to heaven before the Holy Spirit was sent?

Even bigger question...why is it that BOTH either the Father OR Jesus could send the Holy Spirit?

The Holy Spirit is either sent by the Father Himself, at Jesus' request or by Jesus Himself. "He" does NOTHING but the Father's Will.

There's no reason to be confused about the Holy Spirit. "He" is like a messenger / helper sent by either the Father Himself or by Jesus, and it does specific tasks with individuals or small groups. See these verses.

John 14:16 "I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever;

John 14:26 "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you.

John 15:26 "When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, that is the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify about Me,

John 16:7 "But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you.

--------------------------------------------------------
Here we see what the Holy Spirit is capable of.

John 16:13 "But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come.

I personally believe that the Holy Spirit can and does help SOME of us when it comes to scripture, as in reminding us of a specific passage WHEN it will explain something.

I don't understand why so many can't grasp this. This is all easily seen in the Bible.

You don't even have the same Holy Spirit as Christ. Of what worth are your words?

You believe the Holy Spirit is a spirit as in an angel??.

Scripture tells us many names for the Father. And He is a Spirit.

Scripture tells us many names for His Son as well.


What is the Holy Spirits name? Surely He has one if He is a separate entity.

Please do tell.

And, which is the greater act of love? Visiting us on earth in the person of Jesus Christ to reconcile us to Himself (see below) or sending His spirit who speaks always of Him that we might be drawn closer to Him in our human pain.

It's hard to pick one.

I reckon that those acts must be equal, since there is no imbalance found in Christ.

And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven. Colossians 1:20

WHat name is this?

:holysealofGod:


:yeshe:

In the kingdom of the world, everyone scrambles for the top. In the kingdom of God, Christ calls us to the bottom!

There's a game that all of us played as youngsters, called "king of the hill."

I remember playing it on a huge pile of snow in the parking lot of a church near where I grew up. The rules were simple: we'd all scramble for the top, elbows flying and legs kicking.

Once on top, we'd do our best to stay there, by pushing any challengers down the slope. Well, imagine how strange it would be if one of the players started on top, went down to the bottom on purpose, and proceeded to help the other players go up.

It'd be "king of the hill," only backwards! It would be an upside-down pyramid, and it's a very good picture of what Jesus did for us!

Jesus said "I am the Truth".

"I will not leave you comfortless... I will come to YOU".

"I will be with you always, even unto the end".



Why did Jesus have to ascend to Heaven before the Spirit of Truth could descend, if they were a separate being, or a being different than Christ?

Damian Marley is.

Oh wow. Just noticed. OP quoted Enoch.

This explains quite a lot.

I quoted a poem to help illustrate my point.

Proverbs 8
1Doth not wisdom cry? and understanding put forth her voice?

2She standeth in the top of high places, by the way in the places of the paths.

3She crieth at the gates, at the entry of the city, at the coming in at the doors.

4Unto you, O men, I call; and my voice is to the sons of man.

5O ye simple, understand wisdom: and, ye fools, be ye of an understanding heart.


Revelation 3:20

20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

That they did. Figured everyone fell asleep so Ill ask you. (not op btw)

Many times God sais His name will be exhaulted, said, praised, learned throughout scripture.

We have the Fathers name given in scripture. So we can praise it.
We have His Sons name given in scripture. So we can praise that too.

But what is this 3rd Gods name?

His purpose is given (comforter), but no actual name.

If God(s) want their name(s) known and praised, this 3rd God must be named somewhere, but have never found it.

Please do tell what the Holy Spirits name is.

Take the good. : P
