The Holy Spirit is a Divine Person
1. What is said of God is said of the Spirit (Ac. 5:3-4).
2. The Holy Spirit is identified with Yahweh (Ac. 7:51, quoting Ps. 78:17,21; Heb. 10:15-17, quoting Jer. 31:33-34).
3. The activity of God = the activity of the Holy Spirit (e.g., in creation, conversion, etc.).
4. “God said” = “the Spirit said” (Isa. 6:9 / Acts 28:25).
5. We are the “temple of God because the Holy Spirit dwells in us” (Eph. 2:22; 1 Cor. 6:19). If the Holy Spirit is not God, how could we properly be called the temple of God simply because the Spirit indwells us?
6. Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is the only unforgivable sin (Mt. 12:31; Mk. 3:28).
