{{summary Infobox_Contents | texttopic_name =Holy Spirit |subtopics = [[Pentecost]], [[Acts|Book of Acts]]* [[Pentecostal churches]]* [[Trinity]] * [[Spiritual gifts]] |opinion_pieces = |}}  The Holy Spirit (or Holy Ghost) is the third person of the [[Trinity]], co-equal with [[God the Father]] and [[Jesus Christ]]. He is the one who convicts of sin and guides into the truth.  The word translated into "doctrine of the Holy Spirit" in being God as part of the [[Trinity]] is one of the Bible has its root meaning great mysteries of Christianity, and it is also a core teachings of orthodox [[Christianity]], setting Christianity apart from other [[monotheism|monotheistic]] religions such as "breath" [[Islam]], as well various off-shoots of Christianity such as [[Jehovah's Witnesses]] and [[Christadelphianism]]. The Spirit is not an impersonal “it” or "wind"simply an influence. He is a person. 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. The Holy Spirit is a person who can be grieved ([[Ephesians 4:30]]) and teach ([[John 14:26]]) among many other things.}}
{{overview}}===Biblical passages===
{{topics}}* The [[PentecostBible]] | explains the importance and centrality of the Holy Spirit in the divine plan. Without his presence in this world, there would not be creation, the universe, nor even the humanity ([[Genesis 1:2]], [[Job 26:13]], [[Job 33:4]], [[Psalm 104:30]]). Without the Holy Spirit, neither the [[New Testament]] nor the Bible would not come into existence ([[2 Peter 1:21]], [[Book of ActsJohn 14:26]]* , [[Pentecostal churches1 Corinthians 2:10]]* ). And without him Christians have no power to proclaim the gospel ([[TrinityActs 1:8]]). Without the Holy Spirit, humans would not have faith, new birth or holiness.
