Is the Holy Spirit God? Does the Holy Spirit work throughout our lives in real time?
"The testimony of the Spirit is more excellent than all reason. For as God alone is a fit witness of himself in his Word, so also the Word will not find acceptance in men's hearts before it is sealed by the inward testimony of the Spirit. The same Spirit, therefore, who has spoken through the mouths of the prophets must penetrate into our hearts to persuade us that they faithfully proclaimed what had been divinely commanded." -- John Calvin.
Does the Holy Spirit provide this real-tiime function to members of the EO?
Yes, of course. He intercedes in our lives. He does not exist in time and space.
I don’t understand why someone a thousand plus years after Christ could be understood as an expert on the Holy Spirit, why is it folks pursue the traditions and doctrines of men?!?
