How amazing is Holy Spirit?
Pastor Phil Ward
John 16:7
“It is to your advantage that I go away that I might send the Holy Spirit to you”
2 Cor. 13:14 (NKJ)

Romans 5:10 (CEV)
“Even when we were God’s enemies, He made peace with us, because His Son died for us. Yet something even greater than friendship is ours. Now that we are at peace with God, we will be saved by His Son’s life.
C.) Then he says the “Communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all”
The Greek word for Communion is the word “Koinonia” and that word “Koinonia” has three major definitions.
Firstly (Koinonia) means: “Fellowship” ---What Paul says: “May the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you.
Secondly: Koinonia means: “Partnership” ---Paul says “May the Partnership with the Holy Spirit be with you all”
Thirdly: Koinonia means: “Intimacy”

1 Cor. 3:9 (AMPC)
“For we are fellow workmen (joint promoters, laborers together) with and for God…”
Acts 15:28
“For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us…”
Matt.13:10-11 (TPT)

2 Cor. 13:14 (MSG)

Ps. 139:17-18 (TPT)
