WHAT IS THE HOLY SPIRIT & HOW DOES IT LEAD US AND GUIDE US?
The Holy Spirit is far more than a bonus companion or benefit of our salvation. He is God. The Scriptures teach that the Spirit is in every way God. He is all-powerful, all-present, and knows all things.
"The God that made the world and all things therein, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; neither is he served by men's hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; and he made of one every nation of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed seasons, and the bounds of their habitation; that they should seek God, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he is not far from each one of us; for in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain even of your own poets have said."
(Acts 17:24-28)
About 25-30 C.E. a mystical teacher named Jesus / Yeshua began to tell people about a spiritual realm in which the person who would be a leader must be a servant of all. He spoke of a definite re-birth into a Higher Consciousness. He spoke of a comforter that would come and lead us and guide into this spiritual realm. Jesus indicated that his message consisted of a public (exoteric) message for all the people and an advanced (esoteric) teaching reserved for his people.
