This thing about the Holy Spirit. That to make it separate , a thing bestowed upon the deserving , is Elitist.
Perhaps we can consider the spirit holy , if we choose , but the truth is that Spirit has always been a part of this world ; another element like air and
water. It's always there and available to anyone who recognizes its existence and becomes available to it. Advisor , comforter , it is still part of the
knowable. God is the unknowable , and as soon as someone says , 'I know God' or ' I know God's purpose' , it becomes known and is no
longer God.
