In conclusion, the phrase “Holy Spirit”and “Spirit of God” can mean many different things, and it always depends on which fairy tale gets more donations.
fixed it for you
tradition within christianity has long been that any time the phrases holy spirit, holy ghost, or spirit of godare used in the bible (especially in the new testament), it always refers to the mysterious third divine person of the trinity, who is fully god, co-equal to the father and son, yet somehow distinct.. i want to present a simplified alternative view: let the context determine the meaning!.
(one thing to keep in mind is that the meaning of the bible words used for spirit basically is unseen force or invisible presence.).
the holy spirit as the mind and personality of god.

just wondering?
he denied being in subjection to the the watchtower corporation so are they still using him in their regular monthly broadcast.
It was in the Lopez case that Loesch refused to testify.
The Lopez case was ruled on in October 2014.
Loesch was on the broadcast in March 2015.
So, has he been in a broadcast since he refused to honor a subpoena? The answer is, "Yes."
i was told that today by a jw...no more to say.
hi everyone, .
we have 4 ex-jws coming tomorrow for a meetup in san marcos, tx.
pm me for more information.

ABibleStudent: They would respond by saying, "Why should anyone in the Governing Body resign over a manufactured, false controversy?"
We see the controversies and scandals for what they are. JW's that are loyal see controversies and scandals as Satanic lies and propaganda.
it is time for christians to accept evolution, in my opinion.. there are many reasons why i think it is long overdue for all christians to finally accept what science says about evolution.
below i will show these reasons.. .
the bible tells people to pay attention to nature to see the glory of god (psalm 19; romans 1:19-20).
this is a bizarre story.. there is a woman who is the local leader of the naacp who is obviously trying to mislead people into believing she is black who is actually white.
very white.. she obviously gets a tan regularly but looks more orange.
yes, orange really is the new black!.
Instead of assuming that she did this for purely selfish reasons, say she truly feels that she's black and wants to be black.
Obviously, genetically she is not black.
How is this any different than the Caitlyn Jenner situation? I accept Caitlyn as a woman because that's who she wants to be. Obviously, genetically Caitlyn has the chromosomes of a male. But if Caitlyn wants to be a woman, I'm going to support her and applaud her.
Again, how is this different? I can condemn the toxic deceptive behavior (that example of the photo Simon gave in the OP), but I don't think I can laud Caitlyn in one sentence for being who she is and then condemn this woman for being who she is if that's all she was trying to be.

i was wondering if anyone had an audio recording of a woman, preferably a minor being asked the intimate details of a fornication jc.
that would hit the fan hard.
the latest jw podcast has inspired me to update the copypasta comment that i post anytime this topic comes up.. i have formatted it to more closely follow the wonderful www.jwfacts.com table.
i have also added a few more links directly to the jw online library.
