D. The Holy Ghost is the agent of divine communion
“The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God” (Romans 8:16).

John 14:17; 15:26; 16:12–15; Ephesians 1:13; Hebrews 10:14–15

IV. What Is the World of the Spirit All About?
A. Some original language words for the Spirit of God
1. Hebrew: ruah=breath, wind
Job 27:3; 33:4

2. Greek: pneuma=wind, breath
We can see from the above words that a spirit is very hard to quantify or describe. It has no definite shape or substance. It is not bound by the laws of nature. Thus, it’s whereabouts cannot be definitely known. We do know, however, that the Spirit of God, the Holy Ghost, fills the physical universe and all of heaven and hell (Psalms 139:8; 1 Kings 8:27). His whereabouts can be known in that He is everywhere all the time. He is omnipresent.

B. There are spirits of nations, people, emotions, states of being and etc.

Numbers 5:14; Deuteronomy 34:9; 2 Kings 2:15; 1 Chronicles 5:26; 2 Chronicles 21:16; Ezra 1:1; Job 20:3; Isaiah 4:4; 11:2; 19:3; 29:10

C. There are evil spirits
These spirits often appear to be good spirits and are therefore even more dangerous than you might think (2 Corinthians 11:14).

Hosea 5:4; Luke 4:33; Luke 13:11; Acts 16:16; Romans 8:15; 11:8; 2 Timothy 1:7; 1 John 4:3

D. There are good spirits
Good spirits are comprised of all those who remained true to God when Satan made insurrection against Him. Satan took one third of God’s angels with him, but the rest remained sinless. In this respect all heavenly spirits are holy spirits. Thus when we speak of THE Holy Spirit, it is preferable to specify Him as the Spirit of God or the Holy Ghost.
