"The Holy Spirit is often referred to as "It." This is a great mistake,
because He not only is a person; He is a person of Deity. Personal
characteristics are ascribed to Him. He is an individual distinct from
the Father and the Son. He has feelings, and He has a will. He can
feel, think, or reason, and make decisions. He performs acts of a
person. He teaches, guides, sanctifies, loves, reproves, etc., showing
him to act as a person. Personal pronouns are ascribed to Him such as
He, His, of Him. Some have called Him an influence, but He is much more
than an influence. He does influence man, but He does it as a person.
He can be grieved, lied to, resisted, tempted, etc. An influence
cannot be grieved or lied to. He is a person."
This is a paragraph from the first page of my book, THE AMAZING
COMPANION, some surprises about the Holy Spirit. This book is now out
of print, but it is available on CD. It has no sound, but just as the
book was originally it is on the CD to read. One prominent evangelist
who is dead now said, it was the best thing he had read on the subject.
