The Holy Spirit as Supreme Helper and the Kingdom
within as actualization of God-consciousness

    It is important that we begin this discourse with a comment on the personhood of God. God is a person, but he is not a human being as most people would assume a "person" to be. By "person" we mean that God is a self-aware, rational being with a mind, emotions, and a will. In this case, God is definitely a  person. He is a person without equal among persons. Comparing an infant person with an adult person sheds some light on comparing a human person, of any age, with the God person

The Holy Spirit
     God is a spirit and invisible. Spirit has no physical form. Therefore, God has no physical form. God is spirit and the Holy Spirit is God Himself. The Holy Spirit is an equal among and a true member of what is known as "the Godhead." That is just another way of describing the three-in-oneness of God. The Godhead consists of three persons living in perfect unity with each other. Jesus said "I and the Father are one (John10:30). And during His last days on earth He promised His followers that "the Divine Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, He will teach you all things." (John 14:26). Jesus declared the oneness of God, Himself  and the Holy Spirit.
     The Divine Helper, the Holy Spirit is the I AM THAT I AM. I AM THAT whatever I choose to be or do, in any and all situations, known, unknown and unknowable situations to humans. Some examples: I AM THAT bread, if you need bread; I AM THAT healing, if you need healing; I AM THAT wisdom, if you need wisdom. The Holy Spirit will "teach you all things." What a mighty Holy Spirit! A mighty Jesus! A mighty God!

The Kingdom of God
     Speaking of the coming of the Kingdom, Jesus said, "The kingdom of God is not coming with observation. For, indeed, the kingdom of God is within you." (Luke 1:20).
    The kingdom is within you is interpreted as "all of God's power, truth and love embodied in you." The word "within" in Greek "entos" actually translated in the midst, or among you.

Blessed Assurance
     With the Holy Spirit as the Divine Helper to teach and guide us and the embodied kingdom within us, we have everything we need to live a victorious life in the eternal now and have hope for what awaits us in the eternal forever. "But as it is written: 'Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them who love Him'" 1 Corinthians 2:9.
