Once again this Friday our QUESTION does not come from a TalkofJESUS.com READER COMMENT, however after listening to this ANSWER from Ligonier, a trusted theological source, please feel free to ask your additional question in a comment or comment on the sermon which I hope that you will share.

Order from Chaos
IF a reader had asked, “What is the Holy Spirit?” our comment string of answers likely could have been chaos.
Today’s QUESTION, ‘Who is the Holy Spirit?’ provides an opportunity for me to share an answer from this week’s Ligonier broadcast on Wednesday.
Sinclair Ferguson provides one of the BEST explanations of the Holy Spirit I have heard.
I pray that you will take a few minutes to listen to it on the LINK below. – Roger
