Heb. 10:29 How much severely do you think a man deserves to be punished who has trampled the Son of
God under foot, who has treated as an unholy thing the blood of the covenant that sanctified him, and who
has insulted the Spirit of Grace?

The Holy Spirit is Glory.
1 Peter 4:14 If you insulted because of the name of Christ, you are blessed, for the Spirit of glory and of God
rests on you.

The Holy Spirit is Omniscience.
1 Cor. 2:10-11 The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among men knows the
thoughts of a man except the man’s spirit within him? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God
except the Spirit of God.

Ps. 139:7-8 Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens,
you are there, if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.

The Holy Spirit is Omnipotence.
Gen. 1:2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit
was hovering over the waters.

God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit each possess all of the divine attributes coequally,
eternally, and infinitely. What is true of one divine person is also true for the other two persons. The
Scriptures indicate that the Holy Spirit has those attributes which
only the true God possesses. (Robert Gromacki, The Holy Spirit, p. 24.)

The Holy Spirit performs the works of God in:

Creation
Creation was an act of the Triune God. Jesus Christ was the creator and
sustainer, but the Holy Spirit was integrally involved as He moved among
the creation.
Ps. 104:30 When you send your Spirit, they are created, and you renew the
fact of the earth.

Genesis 1:1-2 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form
2
and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face
of the waters.

Revelation
The Holy Spirit reveled to men the full manifestation of who God was and is to share with others.

Eph. 3:4-5 In reading this, then, you will be able to understand my insight into the mystery of Christ,
which was not made known to men in other generations as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to
God’s holy apostles and prophets.

Inspiration
The Holy Spirit was the person of the Godhood that guided men as they wrote Scripture.
