The Father and the Spirit

Postby ichthus » June 19th, 2008, 5:41 am

What Scriptures would you use to prove the Father is NOT the Holy Spirit when talking to a "Jesus Only"?

How would you answer the question "If the Father is Spirit and the Holy Spirit is Spirit and yet they are two distinct Persons, how can that not mean there are then Two Spirits?

Matthew 3:16-17 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

Matthew 26:40-42 And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour? Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.


Acts 1:3-4 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God: And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.

Hope that these help some and maybe give you ideals.
God Bless
