YAN God as Neighbor

Now the earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep. God's Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.

Where could I go from your Spirit? Or where could I flee from your presence?

Your eyes saw my body. In your book they were all written, the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there were none of them.

Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness.

Turn at my reproof. Behold, I will pour out my spirit on you. I will make known my words to you.

Until the Spirit is poured on us from on high, and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, and the fruitful field is considered a forest.

But at the last Daniel came in before me, whose name was Belteshazzar, according to the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods: and I told the dream before him, [saying],

Belteshazzar, master of the magicians, because I know that the spirit of the holy gods is in you, and no secret troubles you, tell me the visions of my dream that I have seen, and its interpretation.

This dream I, king Nebuchadnezzar, have seen; and you, Belteshazzar, declare the interpretation, because all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known to me the interpretation; but you are able; for the spirit of the holy gods is in you.

This is the word that I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt, and my Spirit lived among you. 'Don't be afraid.'

but whoever may blaspheme against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin"

John testified, saying, "I have seen the Spirit descending like a dove out of heaven, and it remained on him.

I didn't recognize him, but he who sent me to baptize in water, he said to me, 'On whomever you will see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.'

For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God; for God gives the Spirit without measure.

"You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and these are they which testify about me.

But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn't yet glorified.

But I don't seek my own glory. There is one who seeks and judges.

I know that you always listen to me, but because of the multitude that stands around I said this, that they may believe that you sent me."

You call me, 'Teacher' and 'Lord.' You say so correctly, for so I am.

If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.

I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever,--

the Spirit of truth, whom the world can't receive; for it doesn't see him, neither knows him. You know him, for he lives with you, and will be in you.

But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.

You are my friends, if you do whatever I command you.

"When the Counselor has come, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will testify about me.

Nevertheless I tell you the truth: It is to your advantage that I go away, for if I don't go away, the Counselor won't come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.

When he has come, he will convict the world about sin, about righteousness, and about judgment;

about judgment, because the prince of this world has been judged.

However when he, the Spirit of truth, has come, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak from himself; but whatever he hears, he will speak. He will declare to you things that are coming.

He will glorify me, for he will take from what is mine, and will declare it to you.

All things whatever the Father has are mine; therefore I said that he takes of mine, and will declare it to you.

Sanctify them in your truth. Your word is truth.

that they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be one in us; that the world may believe that you sent me.

The glory which you have given me, I have given to them; that they may be one, even as we are one;

When he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit!

While Peter was pondering the vision, the Spirit said to him, "Behold, three men seek you.

even Jesus of Nazareth, how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.

While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all those who heard the word.

They of the circumcision who believed were amazed, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was also poured out on the Gentiles.

"Can any man forbid the water, that these who have received the Holy Spirit as well as we should not be baptized?"

As they served the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, "Separate Barnabas and Saul for me, for the work to which I have called them."

So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia. From there they sailed to Cyprus.

But Saul, who is also called Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, fastened his eyes on him,

The disciples were filled with joy with the Holy Spirit.

Yet he didn't leave himself without witness, in that he did good and gave you rains from the sky and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness."

God, who knows the heart, testified about them, giving them the Holy Spirit, just like he did to us.

For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay no greater burden on you than these necessary things:

When they had gone through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia.

When they had come opposite Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit didn't allow them.

He said to them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" They said to him, "No, we haven't even heard that there is a Holy Spirit."

When Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke with other languages and prophesied.

Now after these things had ended, Paul determined in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there, I must also see Rome."

Now, behold, I go bound by the Spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there;

except that the Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions wait for me.

Take heed, therefore, to yourselves, and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the assembly of the Lord and God which he purchased with his own blood.

Having found disciples, we stayed there seven days. These said to Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.

Coming to us, and taking Paul's belt, he bound his own feet and hands, and said, "Thus says the Holy Spirit: 'So will the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man who owns this belt, and will deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.'"

When they didn't agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had spoken one word, "The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah, the prophet, to our fathers,

who also sealed us, and gave us the down payment of the Spirit in our hearts.

being revealed that you are a letter of Christ, served by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tablets of stone, but in tablets that are hearts of flesh.

who also made us sufficient as servants of a new covenant; not of the letter, but of the Spirit. For the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.

won't service of the Spirit be with much more glory?

Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord, the Spirit.

But having the same spirit of faith, according to that which is written, "I believed, and therefore I spoke." We also believe, and therefore also we speak;

Now he who made us for this very thing is God, who also gave to us the down payment of the Spirit.

And because you are children, God sent out the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, "Abba, Father!"

But as then, he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so also it is now.

For God is my witness, how I long after all of you in the tender mercies of Christ Jesus.

For I know that this will turn out to my salvation, through your supplication and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

If there is therefore any exhortation in Christ, if any consolation of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tender mercies and compassion,

and that our Good News came to you not in word only, but also in power, and in the Holy Spirit, and with much assurance. You know what kind of men we showed ourselves to be among you for your sake.

You became imitators of us, and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit,

God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders, by various works of power, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to his own will?

You made him a little lower than the angels. You crowned him with glory and honor.

That which was from the beginning, that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our eyes, that which we saw, and our hands touched, concerning the Word of life

But you, beloved, keep building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit.

John, to the seven assemblies that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace, from God, who is and who was and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits who are before his throne;

I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, like a trumpet

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes I will give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of my God.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. He who overcomes won't be harmed by the second death.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes, to him I will give of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written, which no one knows but he who receives it.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.

Immediately I was in the Spirit. Behold, there was a throne set in heaven, and one sitting on the throne

Out of the throne proceed lightnings, sounds, and thunders. There were seven lamps of fire burning before his throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.
