Placed on equal footing with the Father and the Son in scripture, the third corner of that triangle must be equally divine.
But who is He exactly? Using proof from scripture, creeds, and hymns, he shows that the Holy Spirit is no more and no less than God the Creator Himself.

He can be all around us and within us, if we are ready to receive Him.
As a spirit, He can penetrate physical matter.
He is not matter, but He is substance.
Tozer writes, with all the qualities and powers of personality.
He is a Person...
For He is a Person, although one that is not made of physical matter.
