Let's say Holy Spirit refers to the Divine nature of God...again then you have a contradiction. Divine nature is not Human nature...those are two different things
Let's say "Holy Spirit" is a person...again you have a contradiction. Persons are not natures. Persons HAVE nature.
Simply,
Person=a WHO
nature=a WHAT.
BTW I didn't say the Holy Spirit is the same Person as Christ. But even if I did, you said you agree. So again the problem is you have no distinction in terms, no catagories. Nature is the same thing as Person, Person is the same thing as nature..well that is simply not the case. That is why I asked my questions and a little bit why I really don't understand what it is you believe.
It's impossible for me to answer your questions because you view a person and a nature as the same thing
Father and Spirit are not components. Father and Spirit are actual ways the Person of God reveals Himself

Prax, I am not saying that person and nature are the same thing. I am asking you what the role of the holy spirit is in the person of christ. Christ blew on his disciples and said receive ye the holy ghost. So I'm saying that the holy spirit is an integral part of Christ. Are you saing that the holy spirit is part of christ's nature?
