Most Christians are familiar with the imagery and implications of the Heavenly Father, God, getting a bride for his son, the Lord Jesus.

But what of the Holy Spirit? The Bible tells us that God is a spirit, and no man has seen God at any time, and yet the Holy Spirit? The Bible tells us that God is a spirit and no man has seen God at any time,

0:23.8

and yet the Holy Spirit is symbolized throughout Scripture in many ways. In this study, seeing the

0:30.2

spirit in the scriptures, we will discover pictures of the invisible God. Let's join Evangelist Scott

Pauli now and get better acquainted with the person and work of the Holy Spirit.

Every listener understands what it is to hold a writing utensil in your fingers, in your hands,

2:07.7

2:13.8

Speaking of believers, Paul writes in verse 2, ye are our epistle written in our hearts known
