Christians, what is the Holy Spirit?

Question

I am a new believer and I am right now studying my bible, but one time a I asked different people, to tell me or describe to me what the holy spirit is. Some says he is an active force others says he is a being part of the trinity. That is why I am studying in my bible, so will please tell me who the holy spirit is, and show me where in the bible it says that.

Answer 1

The Holy Spirit is REAL, the third person of the Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He is not a vague, ethereal shadow, nor an impersonal force. He is a person equal in every way with the Father and the Son. All the divine attributes ascribed to the Father and the Son are equally ascribed to the Holy Spirit.



DIVINE ATTRIBUTES ascribed to the Holy Spirit:

1. The Holy Spirit is ETERNAL (Hebrews 9:14).

2. The Holy Spirit is OMNIPRESENT (Psalm 139:7-10) (means: everywhere present).

3. The Holy Spirit is OMNISCIENT (means: all knowing) (John 14:26; 1 Corinthians 2:10; Romans 8:26,27.

4. The Holy Spirit is OMNIPOTENT (means: all powerful) (Luke 1:35) NOTE: There is also a couple of scripture references where the Holy Spirit is called GOD (Acts 5:3,4; 1 Corinthians 3:16.



Some personal QUALITIES of the Holy Spirit:

1. He is intelligent. Therefore, He has intellect.

With His intellect, He KNOWS things. Therefore......

2. He has knowledge 1 Corinthians 2:11

3. He has a WILL 1 Corinthians. 12:11

4. He has a mind. Romans 8:27



The Holy Spirit is spoken of as having personal feelings and has "Emotions":

1. He has affections (love) (Eph. 4:30 and Isaiah 63:10

2. He cries (Galatians 4:6)

3. He can be grieved (Eph. 4:30 Isaiah 63:10)

4. He can be insulted (Hebrews 10:29)



There are many acts ASCRIBED to the Holy Spirit(Personal acts and activities):

1. He searches (1 Corinthians 12:11)

2. He guides (John 16:13)

3. He leads (Matthew 4:1)

4. He forbids (Acts 16:6,7)



The Bible assures us that the Holy Spirit is "Gentle". He is also "Compassionate". He reveals things to do, things to come. But He is a gentlemen even as He discplines, he rebukes, convicts ,chasens and cleans us up.



We can have "fellowship" with Holy Spirit (2 Cor 13:14: John 16:13). However, we are warned not grieve the Holy Spirit (Eph 4:30).

1. Don't rebel don't be disobedient (Acts 5:3 ref: Ananias).

2. Don't insult the Holy Spirit (Heb 3:7-9; Heb 10:29; Matt 12:31,32; Mark 3:28,29).

Answer 2

The Holy Spirit is simply God. God is holy (Leviticus 11:44; I Peter 1:16). In fact, He alone is holy in Himself. God is also a Spirit (John 4:24), and there is only one Spirit of God (I Corinthians 12:11; Ephesians 4:4). Therefore, "Holy Spirit" is another term for the one God.



That the Holy Ghost is God is evident from a comparison of Acts 5:3 with 5:4 and from a comparison of I Corinthians 3:16 with 6:19. These passages identify the Holy Ghost with God Himself.



We cannot limit the terms "Holy Ghost," "Holy Spirit," or "Spirit of God" to the New Testament, nor can we so limit the role or manifestation of God they describe. We find the Spirit mentioned throughout the Old Testament beginning with Genesis 1:2. Peter tells us that the prophets of old were moved by the Holy Ghost (II Peter 1:21).



If the Holy Spirit is simply God, why is there a need for this term? The reason is that it emphasizes a particular aspect of God. It emphasizes that He who is a holy, omnipresent, and invisible Spirit works among all men everywhere and can fill the hearts of men. When we speak of the Holy Spirit, we are reminding ourselves of God's invisible work among men and of His ability to anoint, baptize, fill, and indwell human lives. The term speaks of God in activity: "And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters" (Genesis 1:2). It refers to God working among mankind to regenerate man's fallen nature and enable him to do the supernatural will of God in the world. We note that the Spirit is the agent in the new birth (John 3:5; Titus 3:5).



Since the Holy Spirit is God Himself, we properly use the pronouns He and Him to refer to the Spirit. We often use "Holy Ghost" and "Holy Spirit" as abbreviated forms of "the baptism (or gift) of the Holy Ghost," and in such cases it is proper to use the pronoun it as a substitute. When we do this, however, we should always remember that the Holy Ghost is God and not merely an unintelligent force or fluid. The following verses of Scripture reveal that the Holy Ghost is not an unintelligent force but is in fact God: Acts 5:3-4, 9; 20:23, 28; 21:11.



The Spirit is revealed and received through the name Jesus. He is not a separate person with a separate identity who comes in another name. Jesus said, "The Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name…" (John 14:26). So the Holy Ghost comes in the name of Jesus.

Answer 3

Good for you ~ for trying to find the answers in your Bible. Bravo!



A lot of people simply remain content to accept whatever their church tells them about God ~ right or wrong.



The doctrine of the trinity is the correct view of God. You will not find the word "Trinity" in The Bible. It is merely a word used by theologians to refer to the concept that is found throughout the pages of Scripture.



When you take into consideration all of the things the Bible says about God, and put them together in such a way as to make all of the statements true, we have to conclude that:



• There is one God

• God is one Being ~ comprised of three co-equal and co-eternal persons

• God The Father

• God The Son

• God The Holy Spirit

• There was never a time when The Father was without The Son, or the two of them were without The Holy Spirit.



Admittedly, this is a hard doctrine to understand because there is nothing in the known universe that we can compare it to. Nonetheless, this is how God has revealed Himself through The Scriptures. Even though it is hard, we have little choice but to wrestle with this understanding of it.



There are many verses throughout The Bible I can refer you to. Email me if you would like to know more.

Answer 4

The Holy Spirit is God's active force. There is no biblical evidence that the impersonal, nameless Holy Spirit is a person. In fact, the biblical evidence supports just the opposite:



1) The holy spirit is an "IT". (Num. 11:25) Also, Acts 2:33 calls the Holy Spirit "that" (or "this" in other versions) which according to the KJV New Testament Greek lexicon is a thing, not a person: http://www.biblestudytools.com/Lexicons/Greek/grk.cgi?number=5124&version=kjv



2) "SOME" of "IT" can be PORTIONED OUT & distributed like a substance. At Numbers 11:17 we see: "I will take ['some' - NRSV, NJB] of the Spirit which is upon thee, and will put IT upon them" - ASV (compare KJV, RSV, NRSV, AT, LB, NEB, REB, NAB, JB, NJB, Beck).



3) The H.S. can LITERALLY be "pour(ed) out". In Acts 2:17,18, God pours out [ekxeo, ekxew] from [apo] his Spirit upon all people.



4) Even TRINITARIAN publications admit that the H.S. is NOT a person: "The majority of NT texts reveal God's spirit as someTHING, not someone" - New Catholic Encyclopedia, p. 575, Vol. 13, 1967."In the OT the Holy Spirit means a divine power ..." -p. 269, The Catholic Encyclopedia, 1976,"On the whole, the New Testament, like the Old, speaks of the Spirit as a divine energy or power." - A Catholic Dictionary

Answer 5

Divine Spirit very clearly in Scripture. Please note the following. Thus was born the Christ, - the Spirit precedes (see: Luke. 1, 35). Baptized Christ - the Spirit shows (see: John. 1, 33-34). Tempted Christ - The Spirit of raising it (see: Mt. 4, 1). Commits force Christ - the Spirit goes with it. Ascends Christ - The Spirit of succession. What a great and possibly the One God can not make the Spirit? And the names of God is not what it is he, except for the unborn and birth?



It is called: the Spirit of God, the Spirit of Christ (see: Rome. 8, 9), the mind of Christ (1 Cor. 2, 16), the Spirit of the Lord (Isaiah 61, 1), the Lord Himself (see: Ps. 151, 1), Spirit (Rom. 8, 15), truth (see: John. 14, 17), freedom (see: 2 Cor. 3, 17), the Spirit of wisdom, intelligence, advice, strength, maintenance, piety , fear of God (see: Ex. 11, 2-3), because all these workout.



He performs essence, contains all (see: Prem. 1, 7) ... He is the Spirit of benefits (see: Ps. 142, 10), a right spirit (Ps. 50, 12), Ruler (see: Ps. 50, 14) - by nature, not by assimilation.



Giver of revelations (see: 1 Cor. 2, 10), education (see: Heb. 6, 4), life (see: Rome. 8, 11), it is better then say, very light and life itself. It makes me a temple (see: 1 Cor. 6, 19), God creates, performs, and why baptism precedes (see: Acts. 10, 44), and seekers of the heavenly baptism (see: Acts. 19, 5 -- 6);

(St. Gregory the Theologian)



Above human nature - to explain the reason for the Spirit of God is different things decent - and the one entrusted to the prophecy, and, moreover, to a certain extent, the other receives a gift of healing, and those to some degree, and another of greater or lesser strength. For these things He knows one who delves into the spiritual dignity of each and everyone of the invisible actions of justice, has given what he deserves. (St. Basil)

Answer 6

The Third Person of the Trinity.



2 Samuel 23:2. 1Kings 18:12; 22:24. 2Kings 2:16. 2Chronicles 18:23. Nehemiah 9:20,30. Job 26:13; 33:4. Isaiah 40:13; 48:16; 59:19,21; 61:1; 63:10,1-4. Ezekiel 3:12,14 (1 st); 8:3; 11:1,24; 37:1; 43:5. Micah 2:7; 3:8. Zechariah 4:6; 6:8; 7:12. Malachi 2:15.

Answer 7

If you look to Exodus you'll find the Holy Spirit guiding the Israelites out of Egypt. They are warned:



Exd 23:20 ¶ Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared.



Exd 23:21 Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name [is] in him.



Two things you should understand about the language of the bible are that common words do not hold the same meanings. An "angel" is not a cherub with wings or anything of the sort. And angel is a messenger. And a "name" is not merely a word attached to someone. It is their entire being, essence, and everythign associated with them.



With that in mind it would help if you read a brief article at the Jewish Encyclopedia:

You will learn a lot about Christianity from it.

Answer 8

A person of the trinity, who is God. The Comforter, Counselor and Healer, Spirit.



Father is God.

Son is God.

Holy Spirit is God.



One God.



Do a search on BibleGateway.com for "Holy Spirit". The term "Holy Spirit" is in 92 different verses in the bible. Too many to list here.

Answer 9

The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity, equally God with the Father and the Son.

He was sent to the believers to reveal the Son and to comfort us.



He is the POWER by which God is made manifest among the believers and throughout the world.

Answer 10

It's the active force of God, his power in action in doing his will. It is not a person. Even the Catholic Encyclopedia says it is something, but it is not a person. Then if the Catholic Encyclopedia says this, why does the false doctrine of the trinity continue.

the Holy spirit is to the Holy Ghost like the suns rays are to the sun.

some people think that good pharmacutical is a holy spirit as well. and good works. im still debating the final conclusion on this matter

Answer 12

In Christianity, the Holy Spirit (or Holy Ghost) is the Spirit of God. In mainstream (Trinitarian) Christian beliefs he is the third person of the Trinity. As part of the Godhead, the Holy Spirit is equal with God the Father and with God the Son.



The Christian theology of the Holy Spirit was the last piece of Trinitarian theology to be fully developed. There is also greater diversity in Christian theology of the Spirit (pneumatology) than there is in the theology of the Son (Christology) or of the Father.

Answer 13

...God has chosen to manifest Himself to mankind in "3" distinct ways... He (God) is God Almighty (El Shaddi....the Hebrew word) ...He too has manifested Himself to mankind in the form of a human being in the Person of Jesus (Yeshua ben Josef...His Hebrew/Jewish Name) ...and... Jesus explained to us that when He was taken back to Heaven to be enjoined with God Almighty, He would send us a Spiritual Comforter...The Holy Spirit of God (Ruach HaKodesh...the Hebrew word for the Holy Spirit). God (YHVH) in Three distinctive Persons, yet all "One". So you ask, how can "one" be "3" different things...? (a good question) ...and here's the answer that you'll be able to understand...



Consider "water"...(it's just water)... however... consider "ice", it's just WATER. Now consider, steam ! it's just WATER... all "3" completely and totally different but all exactly 100% the same ! Water... Now your know God... 100% God ! Now you know Jesus... 100% God ! and now you know the Holy Spirit... 100% God !

Answer 14

The Holy Spirit is almost the forgotten member of the Trinity. Christians know that He is a member of the Godhead. But, too many Christians know very little about Him? is the Holy Spirit a force like radar? Is He alive? Or, is He a person like the Father and Son? Though many think they know, a lot do not. The Jehovah's Witnesses and the Christadelphians teach that He is a force like radar. They are wrong. The Mormons teach that He is a male personage of flesh and bones. Actually, the Mormons teach that the Holy GHOST is a god, the male personage, and the Holy SPIRIT is the presence of God the Father. They also are wrong.



The Holy Spirit is the third person in the Trinity. The Trinity is the doctrine that there is only one God in all creation, all time, and all places. This one God exists as three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each person is not the same person as the other, yet there are not three gods, but one. The Holy Spirit is just as much God as is the Father and the Son. But remember, there are not three gods, but One.



The bible has many references to the Holy Spirit and a quick examination of them reveals many interesting characteristics about Him.



The Holy Spirit is mentioned on equal level with God - Matt. 28:19, "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit."

The Holy Spirit is referred to as a person by scripture - Rom. 8:11, "But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who indwells you."

The Holy Spirit grieves - Isaiah 63:10, "But they rebelled and grieved His Holy Spirit. Therefore, He turned Himself to become their enemy, He fought against them." And, Eph. 4:30, "And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption."

The Holy Spirit loves - Rom. 15:30, "Now I urge you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers to God for me."

The Holy Spirit has a mind - Rom. 8:27, "and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God."

The Holy Spirit speaks - Acts 8:29, "And the Spirit said to Philip, "Go up and join this chariot." And, Acts 13:2, "And while they were ministering to the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, 'Set apart for Me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.'"

It should be very obvious that the Holy Spirit has self identity, is aware, and is not merely a force because a force doesn't speak, love, grieve, and have a mind. But the cults tend to ignore these verses and tell us that the Spirit is nothing more than some presence or power. Sure, the Spirit is a presence and a power, but that is not all He is. He is the third person in the Trinity. He is the one who applies the redemptive work of Christ to the believer. He is the one who convicts the world of sin (John 16:8), who teaches (John 14:26; 15:26), and who anoints (1 John 2:27).



But, the Holy Spirit is also humble because He points to Jesus (John 15:26). Therefore, anyone who is truly indwelt by the Holy Spirit will likewise bear witness of Jesus.



Okay, so what is the devotional aspect here? Simple, the Holy Spirit indwells you and convictions of righteousness and sin. The Holy Spirit is very active in working in your lives as Christians to bring you into a closer relationship with Jesus. We should know more about the One who makes so much possible with our Savior.

Just wanted to state that fact out. :) I agree 100% with them.

Answer 16

Christians can't agree on anything in the bible or what God says. So beyond the fact that's proof there is no God, you will have to simply find your own answer.



That's what faith and religion are, making your own beliefs.

Answer 19

The Holy Spirit is the 3rd Person of the Triune Godhead and He does not abide within everyone. Those who have faith in The Lord Jesus Christ as their Saviour are the only human beings who have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit:



John 7:39

(But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)



John 14:26

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.



John 16:13

Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.



John 20:22

And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:



Acts 2:2-4

And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.



Acts 8:17

Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.



Acts 19:6

And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.



Almighty God was, is and will always be triune (one God in three persons, not three gods). God is comprised of the Father, the Son (Lord Jesus Christ) and the Holy Spirit. Each person of the Triune Godhead has a different role. There is only one God (Isaiah 43:10-11; 44:6,8; 45:21-22; 46:9; John 17:3; 1 John 5:20-21). The Father is God (1 Peter 1:2; Philippians 2:11), the Lord Jesus Christ is God (Matthew 1:23; John 1:1; 20:28; Hebrews 1:8; Hebrews 13:8; Revelation 1:7-8; 2 Peter 1:1; Titus 2:13) and the Holy Spirit is God (Acts 5:3-4; Acts 28:25-27; 1 Corinthians 3:16-17; 2 Corinthians 3:17.



Without God, man’s spirit is unilluminated. This illumination happens at the time one’s spirit is united to the Holy Spirit (which happens only after one has accepted Christ as their Saviour). The Light went out of the spirit after the fall of man. Man had lost communion with God. Christ, the second Person of the Triune Godhead made the sacrifice for our sins so the Light could be lit in the spirits of all.

The Holy Spirit gives us an abundance of life. In fact He gives us life overflowing continuously (John 7:38-39, John 4:14).



God’s infinite and perfect love is poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit (Romans 5:5). Through the Spirit, we know we are loved by God and that we belong to our Heavenly Father (Galatians 4:6).



When the Spirit of God abides in us because of our faith in Christ, He brings us to yearn for what the Spirit wants (Romans 8:2-6), convicts us of sin (John 16:8-9) and strengthen us so we are able to resist the desires of the flesh (Ephesians 3:16).



The Holy Spirit abides within true Christians and gives to each of us gifts according to the will of God for the building up of the Church.



1 Corinthians 12:8-10 lists the nine supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit: Tongues, Interpretation of Tongues, Miracles, Healings, Discerning of Spirits, Prophecy, Faith, Knowledge and Wisdom.



God’s Holy Spirit is the Spirit of revelation and truth, guiding those who are in Christ into all truth (John 16:13, Ephesians 1:17). The Holy Spirit reminds believers of all the teachings of Christ, and He reveals the wisdom hidden in these teachings and in the scriptures (John 14:26). When we study the Holy Bible, it is the Holy Spirit Who brings us into the understanding of the scriptures. In our daily activities and in dealing with others, He reminds us of what we have learnt in the Word of God and shows us how to apply these truths.



The Holy Spirit leads us in the path that God has made for us (Matthew 4:1). The Holy Spirit guides us in all of our actions even in speaking (Acts 16:6) and gives us the boldness to speak the word of God (Acts 4:29-31).



In praying, we do not know all the time what we ought to be praying for, so the Holy Spirit intercedes for us according to the will of God (Romans 8:26-27).

REDEMPTION BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH



Because mankind is incapable of meeting God’s standard of perfection necessary to abide in God’s presence (Romans 3:19-20,23), God sent His Son Jesus Christ to pay the total debt for the believer’s sins and mercifully credits to his account Christ’s righteousness (Romans 3:21-28,5:1-11; 2 Corinthians 5:18-21). Jesus’ gracious act of atonement was complete and covers all sin (Colossians 2:13-14; 1 John 1:9). Salvation is not based on good deeds but according to the mercy of God (Titus 3:4-5). Believers are justified by faith; it is a gift by God’s grace (Romans 4:3-8; Ephesians 2:8-9). A true, living faith will result in a desire to live a holy, loving life of good works (Ephesians 2:10; Galatians 5:6; James 2:14-26), but failure to be absolutely successful at righteous living does not negate the believer’s justified status.



If you sincerely say this prayer, your sins will be washed away, you will be redeemed to God, be saved from eternal torment and inherit the Kingdom of God:



"Dear Jesus,



I am a sinner.

I repent of my sins.

Please forgive me and save me by your shed blood;

come into my heart.

I want to receive you as my own personal Lord and Savior.



Amen"

Answer 21

The dude that did the Blessed Virgin Mary and got away with it!



Years after Saint Paul put together Christianity, the Early Church Fathers collected all the Gospels (stories) written about the “virgin birth of Jesus Christ.” This is what they set forth: Mary was a horny teenager in full puberty. She was very eagerly submitting to the advances of the proxy agent of God the Holy Ghost, the Archangel Saint Gabriel that was sent to fix a deal with her to mother GOD the Son Jesus Christ! She didn’t hesitate for one moment to comply with the indecent proposal of a perfect stranger! So it was not a rape, but more like a horny smart young girl's dream to sexually lay God the Holy Ghost come true… spiritually speaking, of course!



The Blessed Virgin Mary was not married to God the Holy Ghost or to Saint Joseph! She was living together with Saint Joseph in the same house. She was still too young to have sex with an old man like Saint Joseph. Marriage rules in those days were much different from today! In most cases the groom or his parents buy the bride when she is still a baby, or at a very young age too young for sexual intercourse and sometimes he may wait for a while before trying. The fact of the virgin birth story THAT NO CHRISTIAN CAN DENY is that Saint Joseph is not the legitimate father of the Baby God the Son Jesus Christ! AND THAT HIS GENEOLOGY IN THE BIBLE IS TOTALLY WORTHLESS HOGWASH! As far as marriage rules go in our society today, Jesus Christ is a plain “bastard!” The SOB initials can rightfully be used to describe Jesus Christ, but since the Early Church Fathers came up with the brilliant idea to certify that Mary is a perpetual virgin nobody would dare to call Jesus any vulgar name for fear of his/her life (! I KNOW!) The Bible writers claim that Jesus is really cool because God doesn’t deal with any bastard no matter how Holy until their 10th generation (Deut 23:2). Jesus is an exception to any Law of God especially about Mary parents having to keep her last tampon* (*cloth) handy at all times as evidence of her virginity before she can marry anybody (Deut 22:20-21)! Christians need to discard all of the above information to make Christianity feasible for them AND THEY KNOW IT… and they are willing to kill to defend, or support those who do it!



Christians know that the Blessed Virgin Mary kept her pregnancy a secret from her fiancé Saint Joseph for 6 months! When he found out that her belly was getting unusually big he was going to dump her. Mary assured him that she was still a virgin and that she was going to mother God. Fortunately, an angel came the same night to Saint Joseph in a dream telling him that everything is OK, so he kept her! Most Christians, especially Catholics believe that the marriage of Saint Joseph to the Virgin Mary was never consummated. Saint Joseph became the Guardian Saint Protector of the Virgin Mary’s Perpetual “Virginity” and also the Saint Protector of all the Christian believers in the World! Countless faithful Christians still pray to him!



Because of the Holy Trinity connection, the Blessed Virgin Mary became recognized as the Mother of God conceived without the “original sin™”. Always virgin! Her hymen was NEVER torn! The Virgin Mary’s virginity is a miracle verified by Saint Salome to the fullest satisfaction of the Early Church Fathers! Nobody can prove any abuse! In 1950 it became a Church dogma that she ascended bodily into Heaven! Now she is officially known as the Queen of Heaven and the Mother of God! I don’t believe that she would be willing to complain about any statutory rape or abuse!!! The Vatican compensated her beyond her wildest dreams! LUCKY TEENAGER!



This is the Story of the Divine Seduction of the Blessed Virgin Mary according to



THE PROTOEVANGELIUM OF SAINT JAMES…



http://www.newadvent.org/fathers/0847.htm



11. And she took the pitcher, and went out to fill it with water. And, behold, a voice saying: Hail, thou who hast received grace; the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women! And she looked around, on the right hand and on the left, to see whence this voice came. And she went away, trembling, to her house, and put down the pitcher; and taking the purple, she sat down on her seat, and drew it out. And, behold, an angel of the Lord stood before her, saying: Fear not, Mary; for thou hast found grace before the Lord of all, and thou shalt conceive, according to His word. And she hearing, reasoned with herself, saying: Shall I conceive by the Lord, the living God? and shall I bring forth as every woman brings forth? And the angel of the Lord said: Not so, Mary; for the power of the Lord shall overshadow thee: wherefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of the Most High. And thou shalt call His name Jesus, for He shall save His people from their sins. And Mary said: Behold, the servant of the Lord before His face: let it be unto me according to thy word.

12. And she made the purple and the scarlet, and took them to the priest. And the priest blessed her, and said: Mary, the Lord God hath magnified thy name, and thou shall be blessed in all the generations of the earth. And Mary, with great joy, went away to Elizabeth her kinswoman, and knocked at the door. And when Elizabeth heard her, she threw away the scarlet, and ran to the door, and opened it; and seeing Mary, she blessed her, and said: Whence is this to me that the mother of my Lord should come to me? for, behold, that which is in me leaped and blessed thee. But Mary had forgotten the mysteries of which the archangel Gabriel had spoken, and gazed up into heaven, and said: Who am I, O Lord, that all the generations of the earth should bless me? And she remained three months with Elizabeth; and day by day she grew bigger. And Mary being afraid, went away to her own house, and hid herself from the sons of Israel. And she was sixteen years old when these mysteries happened.

13. And she was in her sixth month; and, behold, Joseph came back from his building, and, entering into his house, he discovered that she was big with child...



The Blessed Virgin Mary was really drenched in Holy Ghost Sperm from head to toe like the Early Church Fathers report in the Saint Bart’s Gospel. This Gospel had equal chance to be part of the Holy Bible, but they already had too many books selected so they closed the Bible canon as is.

Chapter 2 (II)

3 Bartholomew therefore said unto Peter: Thou that art the chief, and my teacher, draw near and ask her. But Peter said to John: Thou art a virgin and undefiled and thou must ask her.

4 And as they all doubted and disputed, Bartholomew came near unto her with a cheerful countenance and said to her: Thou that art highly favored the tabernacle of the Most High, unblemished we, even all the apostles, ask thee to tell us how thou didst conceive the incomprehensible.

5 But Mary said unto them: Ask me not concerning this mystery. If I should begin to tell you, fire will issue forth out of my mouth and consume all the world.

6 But they continued yet the more to ask her. And she, for she could not refuse to hear the apostles, said: Let us stand up in prayer

…

14 And when she had ended the prayer she began to say unto them: Let us sit down upon the ground; and come thou, Peter the chief, and sit on my right hand and put thy left hand beneath mine armpit; and thou, Andrew, do so on my left hand; and thou, John, the virgin* (*no joking!), hold together my bosom; and thou, Bartholomew, set thy knees against my back and hold my shoulders, lest when I begin to speak my bones be loosed one from another* (*she was anticipating another orgasmic experience of humongous proportions just at the thought of having had sex with God the Holy Ghost! It is all in the Early Church Father’s writings!).

15 And when they had so done she began to say: When I abode in the temple of God, on a certain day there appeared unto me one in the likeness of an angel.

16 And straightway the veil of the temple was rent and there was a very great earthquake, and I fell upon the earth, for I was not able to endure the sight of him.

17 But he put his hand beneath me and raised me up, and I looked up into heaven AND THERE CAME A CLOUD OF DEW AND SPRINKLED ME FROM THE HEAD TO THE FEET* (*just like in any hard core porno video!), and he wiped me with his robe* (*apparently, there was not a shower room in the Temple of God!).



The Blessed Virgin Mary never lost her virginity during her sexual intercourse with God the Holy Ghost, and not even during DELIVERY of the Baby God Jesus Christ according to...



THE PROTEVANGELIUM OF SAINT JAMES

19. And the midwife went forth out of the cave, and Salome met her. And she said to her: Salome, Salome, I have a strange sight to relate to thee: a virgin has brought forth-a thing which her nature admits not of. Then said Salome: As the Lord my God liveth, unless I thrust in my finger, and search the **** parts, I will not believe that a virgin has brought forth.

20. And the midwife went in, and said to Mary: Show thyself* (*spread thy legs!), for no small controversy has arisen about thee. And Salome put in her finger, and cried out, and said: Woe is me for mine iniquity and mine unbelief, because I have tempted the living God; and, behold, my hand is dropping off as if burned with fire* (*She got real excited using her whole hand in search of the hallowed hymen that she almost destroys the paramount evidence of Mary’s virginity and God the Holy Spook had to slap her hand, but relax all ye Christians… she fully recovered!).
