Which is greater - God, Jesus or The Holy Ghost?
Post #1Which is greater - God, Jesus or The Holy Ghost? Can anyone answer that honestly, with supporting evidence?
The question has never been whether God is speaking. The question has always been whether there is anyone listening - anyone who has stopped hiding long enough to hear.

Post #61Me: (ruach) in Hebrew is feminine
AI Overview:
Yes, the Hebrew word for spirit, wind, or breath—ruach (רוּחַ)—is a grammatically feminine noun. In the Hebrew Bible, it is almost exclusively used with feminine verbs and adjectives, such as when describing the Spirit of God (Ruach Elohim) hovering over the waters in Genesis 1:2.
Grammatical Gender: Because ruach is feminine, the Spirit of God is described using feminine grammatical forms in Hebrew.
Context: While grammatically feminine, this does not inherently impart a female gender identity on the Spirit itself, as Hebrew words follow grammatical gender rather than natural gender.
Imagery: The feminine nature of the word ruach is often linked to the maternal, life-giving, and sustaining nature of God's presence.
Comparison: In contrast, the Greek word for spirit (pneuma) is neuter, while the Latin word (spiritus) is masculine.
Proverbs-Chapter-8

Post #62My response,
Obviously without question Christ declared that his Father is greater than he.
Correctly seen, the Godhead is the most perfect example of complete unity and purpose . Each has his specific mission working in perfect harmony to bring to pass the eternal immortality exaltation and eternal life of each of the Fathers spirit offspring.
The most high, our God and Father has a body of flesh and bone.
By his son Jesus Christ the heavens and the earths were created. By this son the infinite and eternal atonement and sacrifice was provided, allowing us to learn to repent and keep the commandment and become truly christlike by tgruoly following this sacred covenant path. By this same son the mighty power of universal resurrection was provided to all mankind. By this same son the earth was redeemed from the fall. By this same Son all animal life was also redeemed and resurrected. By this same son the earth will be cleansed and restored to its original Paradisicle state of glory.
The rsurrected Son also has a body of flesh and bone.
The Holy Ghost does not have a body of flesh and bone, but has a spirit body. His specific mission is to teach all who will obey the commandments and who will listen to the still small voice can and will teach us all things. pertains to the kingdom of heaven.
In all of this no one is ever forced. God is no respecter of persons and He and the entire Godhead hold in perfect order the divine principle of agency.
