He is sometimes forgotten in the discussion of the God the Father and God the Son, and yet plays a role within the Trinity and salvation that is fundamental to the Christian life.

'''Articles / opinions'''* The [[Short comments about Bible]] explains the importance and centrality of the Holy Spirit by different usersin the divine plan.

Without the Holy Spirit, neither the [[New Testament]] nor the Bible would not come into existence ([[2 Peter 1:21]], [[John 14:26]], [[1 Corinthians 2:10]]).
