| Trinitarians believe that the Father and Holy Spirit are separate persons. This is error. Both Mary and Joseph were told that Mary's pregnancy was of the Holy Spirit.
But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, you son of David, fear not to take unto you Mary your wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. |
This means that the Holy Spirit is the Father of Jesus and that whenever the Father is referenced throughout the New Testament it is speaking of the Holy Spirit. For this reason we use the term Holy Spirit Father to eliminate confusion.
Jesus said that He and His Father are One (numeric, not qualitative) . ➛ This means that the Son and the Holy Spirit are not separate persons. ➛ It means that the Holy Spirit Father is the Spirit Of Christ Jesus . ➛ It means that Jesus is His own Father. ➛ It means that the Father is His own Son. ➛ It means that Jesus is the incarnation of His Holy Spirit Father.
Jesus said that the Words He spoke and the works He did were by His Holy Spirit Father . What He was saying is that the Holy Spirit Father formed the Body to manifest Himself to the world .
We see this clearly spelled out when Paul says that Jesus is the express image of the Father .
The Holy Spirit is the power , the life-force of all creation who inspires the Word and then after the Word goes forth, manifests the Word .
The Holy Spirit inspired the prophets to speak about His incarnation of the Word.
This is important: ➛ The term Holy Spirit Father describes our God. ➛ Jesus is the name of our God. ➛ The term Holy Spirit Father honors God for what He is. ➛ The name Jesus honors God for who He is and what He has done for us.
Jesus instructed us to pray to His Holy Spirit Father in His name, Jesus.
And whatsoever you shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Holy Spirit Father may be glorified in the Son. Whatsoever You Shall Ask ➛ `Whatsoever` has no bounds, no limits. ➛ Can you, will you believe what Jesus says here? In My Name ➛ Jesus wants us to ask for whatever we desire using His name. ➛ Why In Jesus` Name? → Jesus is God's name → It is only polite to speak to God using His name. → It demonstrates our faith in Jesus as God, our provider → When we ask In Jesus` Name, His Holy Spirit Father in us performs the work and in so doing validates Jesus as His express image glorifying Himself In Christ Jesus. Glorified In The Son ➛ speaks to the fact that we can only know the Father through the Son. ➛ The Holy Spirit Father incarnated Himself in Christ Jesus by whom He reveals Himself to us in thought, in Word and in action. ➛ When we ask In Jesus` Name and the answer comes, we understand that is by the Spirit Of Christ Jesus in us and so the Holy Spirit Father is glorifed. Now we have the Father in us so that we are One with Him even as our Lord Jesus Christ is One with His Holy Spirit Father . How does answered prayer glorify our Heavenly Father? ➛ Jesus is the express image of His Holy Spirit Father. ➛ It is by the power of His Holy Spirit Father that this promise is kept. Think about how asking and not receiving actually denigrates our Heavenly Father. It makes Him appear unconcerned, unloving. Jesus was the original faith preacher. So, when He makes a statement like this, He assumes you have taken to heart His command: Have Holy Spirit faith! Faith is not something we conjure up. It comes by hearing believing and receiving the Word Of The Lord. When we hear, believe and receive the Word, the Holy Spirit in us can manifest His fruit of supernatural faith, which can accomplish anything . Get into the Word until you have faith in it. Then when you speak the Word it will accomplish our Lord`s purpose by His Holy Spirit . |
Hitherto have you asked nothing in my name: ask, and you shall receive, that your joy may be full. |
He was instructing us to refer to His Holy Spirit Father by His name, Jesus. There is One God who is Spirit Soul And Body , just as we are who were made in His image , and our God's name is Jesus .
