Maybe you could just drop the other shoe right now, instead of laying in wait to ambush us?
meaning spirit, can you provide an explanation? You know i dont buy the trinity, but
this is about translation.

Yes robbie, the Holy Spirit is indeed part of the Trinity.
(Now run!!!!) 😲
'ruach', translated as spirit, also wind in some cases, as being an apparition?
Originally posted by robbie carrobieYou say you don't "buy" the trinity but what is your understanding then of the Holy Spirit. Do you imagine God is not with us in person? How do you think God is able to know our thoughts , convict us of sin etc etc. ?

The Bible says in "Him" we live and move and have our being , not in "it" - therefore the Holy Spirit is God Himself , a personal presence.

not, for nowhere else is it translated as ghost, spirit yes, wind yes, but Ghost? This is
really a rather poor reflection of how much you people actually know about your Bibles,
you have really no idea why a verse is translated in the way it is, do you? that is very
very worrying.
