So; it’s your church’s contention that the Holy Spirit is NOT GOD?

It's my contention based upon scripture that the holy spirit is the spirit of God and not a separate person in a trinity. Scripture shows clearly that the Godhead is composed of the father and the Christ. John 1 shows this the most clearly. It describes what God is composed of:

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Joh 1:2 He was in the beginning with God.
Joh 1:3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.

God the father and the Word. No other divine personage is making up "God"...at least until man decided to throw in their own theory over 300 years after the death of Christ.

Luke 1:34 And Mary said unto the messenger, ‘How shall this be, seeing a husband I do not know?’ the messenger answering said to her, ‘The Holy Spirit shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee, therefore also the holy-begotten thing shall be called Son of God;

It’s nice to know YOUR contention; but I asked about your church’s.

It's my contention based upon scripture...

You fail to acknowledge OTHER scripture that shows your contention to be inaccurate.
