I really enjoy the 4th of July and love the United States. However, I am very clear that my first allegiance is to God and that my primary identity is as a child of God, disciple of Jesus Christ, and enlivened by the Holy Spirit. Let’s celebrate.
What is a correct relationship between the Son / Holy Spirit and me? Who can I depend on for strength in time of weakness? I believe that it is faithful to consider yourself a child of God the Father, a sister or brother of God the Son and as one living with God the Holy […]
Why couldn’t / didn’t Peter heal in the name of the Holy Spirit? Acts 1:8 – Christ promises “power when the Holy Spirit comes upon [them]” Acts 3:6 – Peter heals in the name of Jesus. I tried to find a reference about Jesus giving direction or instruction about healing in his name. The only […]
Are there any references to the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament? The particular understanding of the Holy Spirit as a person of the Trinity comes out of thought around the revelation of Jesus Christ. Thinking about the relationships between the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are not something that originate out of the Old […]
Is the Holy Spirit equal to the Father and the Son or is it a go-between?

I see the Father and the Holy Spirit as still active but just see the Son as by God’s side. Can you explain how the three are still active today? Is the son’s role over after his death and resurrection? I believe that God is very active in the world in many different ways and […]
Could you explain further immanent and economic Trinity? I am still confused about the difference and how they relate. Are they two different Trinities or just two aspects of one Trinity? There is one Trinity and the terms immanent and economic are ways for us to think about the Trinity. Referring to the immanent Trinity […]
