God the Spirit | His Divinity

What comes to mind when you hear “Holy Spirit”? For some, it feels mysterious… even confusing. Is the Spirit a force? A feeling? Just God’s presence? Or is He something more? In this session of our Nicene Creed: Foundations of the Christian Faith Discipleship Class, Pastor Mace Perez helps us slow down and look carefully at what the Creed—and more importantly, Scripture—actually says about the Holy Spirit. The early church didn’t add these words casually. They were clarifying something essential: the Holy Spirit is not an impersonal force. He is the Lord, fully God, the giver of life, worthy of our worship. In this episode, we explore: Why the original creed said so little about the Spirit—and why that changed What it means to call the Holy Spirit “Lord” How the Spirit gives both physical and spiritual life What “proceeds from the Father” really means (and why it mattered in church history) Why the Spirit is worshiped and glorified alongside the Father and the Son Whether you’re a long-time believer or just beginning to explore Christianity, this teaching is designed to help you grow in clarity, confidence, and awe of who God is. The Trinity isn’t a puzzle to solve—it’s the God who has made Himself known to us: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
