John 4:24 KJV God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
Let me ask a question that may feel uncomfortable at first. If God is a Spirit, why do we try and create a second spirit? Scripture says YHVH is Spirit, yet we often speak of “the Spirit of God” as if it were separate. In my opinion it isn’t. There is one Spirit, and that Spirit is Love.
Scripture names many spirits: spirit of jealousy, spirit of fear, a broken spirit, a contrite spirit, even evil spirits. But the spirit of a man is his core motive, his driving force, not an emotion. In the Book of Enoch (not canon, but helpful here), the Nephilim are punished and their spirits bound to the earth. Those restless spirits are what we call demons, I wonder what there motives could be.
Spirits and emotions are deeply linked. Anger, fear, envy, lust, these are not mere feelings; they are spirits. So when every motive is ruled by raw emotion, a man becomes demonic. Those emotions do not rise from the spirit of a man; they are planted by Satan and his hosts. We do not invent thoughts; they are whispered, shaped, and amplified from outside.
Expectations breed anger when unmet. The lie that we must control our own lives is passed down like a family curse, taught by deceived parents who learned it from the father of lies. The antidote is the Spirit, Love.
1 John 4:8 KJV He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
Love is not an emotion. Love is motive. Love is choice. The value of a man is in his choices, his works. Feelings move the flesh; motives flow from Spirit.
Galatians 5:22-23 KJV But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
Joy is chosen, not felt. Gentleness chooses humility over strength. Longsuffering chooses another’s good over my ease. Love is character, not chemistry. To love is to die.
YHVH is Light and Love. Love is the Holy Spirit who dwells in us with unimaginable patience, waiting for us to master the evil spirits we mistake for “just emotions.” Yeshua is the Word of YHVH made flesh, the eternal Logos, the perfect image of the invisible Father. He is Light, and Love expressed. Father and Son share one Spirit; that Spirit is Love. There is One Father, One Son, and One Spirit, Love.

Let me just say that is all true but making sure that you get He is also a person as well as a Spirit, we were made in His image. Yeshua sits on the Throne next our Father. Great article, never was hung up the Trinity but I do understand the Holy Spirit is His Spirit.
