The Holy Spirit is God! In Mathew Jesus tells us that we are to:
“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit” (Mat. 28:19).
Over and over again, Jesus used the personal pronoun in referencing the Holy Spirit. This is Biblical proof that He is not merely an emanation from the Father but a seperate entity. He said:
“Howbeit when He, the Spirit of Truth, is come (which He did on the Day of Pentecost), He will guide you into all Truth (if our Faith is properly placed in Christ and the Cross, the Holy Spirit can then bring forth Truth to us; He doesn’t guide into some truth, but rather “all Truth”): for He shall not speak of Himself (tells us not only What He does, but Whom He represents); but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak (doesn’t refer to lack of knowledge, for the Holy Spirit is God, but rather He will proclaim the Work of Christ only): and He will show you things to come (pertains to the New Covenant, which would shortly be given)” (Jn. 16:13).
The question above was answered using the book "Straight Answers to Tough Questions" by Jimmy Swaggart.
