Bro, The Holy Ghost IS Jesus. He is the Spirit of Truth. I cannot emphasize the Holy Ghost without emphasizing Jesus as they are one in the same

Have you read the New Testament lately? You don't really expect me to believe that there is no distinction between Father, Son, and Holy Ghost presented in Scripture?
If you don't understand that we come to the Father, through Jesus Christ, by the power of the Holy Spirit, than you've really missed the truth of God's eternal purpose in redemption.
For example, have you not read how that God (Father) raised up Jesus Christ (Son) from the dead, by the Holy Spirit?
For this reason Paul states in
Ephesians 2:18,
"For through him[Jesus] we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father."
I feel quite comfortable using the language of the Bible to express God's eternal purpose in reconciling us unto Himself. It's not trinitarian to understand what I have stated above.
