THE HOLY SPIRIT is a person just like God the Father and God the Son .
He is fully God.
He is eternal (never dies), omniscient 9He knows everything), omnipresent (present everywhere at the same time),
He has a will, and can speak.
He is alive; he was not born; He has been there all the time
He is a person.
He is not particularly visible in the Bible because His ministry is to bear witness of Jesus (John 15:26).
Some cults say that the Holy Spirit is nothing more than a force. This is false. If the Holy Spirit were merely a force, then He could not speak (Acts 13:2); He could not be grieved (Eph. 4:30); and He would not have a will (1 Cor. 12:11) etc.
The truth is that the Holy Spirit is a person the same as the Father and the Son.
