First of all, let me say that I do believe in the Holy Ghost, however God is not a Trinity and the Holy Ghost is NOT a 3rd person. However, the Holy Spirit and the Holy Ghost are two different things. Don't jump to conclusions. Please read this entire article before deciding that I am right or that I am wrong. Get your bibles out. Don't believe me. Believe the Bible.

To learn what the Holy Ghost is and the difference between the Holy Spirit and the Holy Ghost, please see our "What is the Holy Ghost" Article.
To continue learning why the Holy Ghost is not a third person, continue reading this page.

If the Holy Ghost is a 3rd person, in a Trinity, What is his name?
The Fathers names include: Yahweh, Yehovah, Jehovah, YHWH and many titles.
The Sons names include: Jesus, Yeshua, Emmanuel and many titles.
What's the Holy Ghost' name? You may say this manifestation has titles/descriptions such as comforter but He has NO name!

If the Holy Ghost is a member of the God Family (Elohim) and is a 3rd person, What position does he hold in this family unit?
Father, Son, __________?
..............brother?
..............Grandfather?
..............Uncle?

You see in the Hebrew Old Testament, the word "God" was "Elohim" which is plural but does not specify how many. In the Greek New Testament, the word "God" was "Theos" which means the Supreme deity and still does not specify a Trinity.

Why did the Apostle Paul leave out the Holy Ghost when refering to the Father AND Christ Jesus? Notice:
Ephesians 1:1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints which are at Ephesus, and to the faithful in Christ Jesus:
2 Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
He mentions the Father AND He mentions Jesus Christ! But He DOES NOT mention the Holy Ghost? WHY? Because it's NOT a third! Notice Again:

Ephesians 5:20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Ephesians 6:23 Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Galatians 1:1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)
2 And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia:
3 Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,

Philippians 1:2 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

You may bring up 1 John 5:7 "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one."
However, according to the Scofield Commentary and MANY other Experienced Well Qualified Sources, "It is generally agreed that (1Jo_5:7) has no real authority, and has been inserted."
It is Documented FACT that the original Greek writings did NOT say what it says today in the King James!!! This scripture was added into the bible by men who held the trinity doctrine and wanted to influence peoples thinking in that direction. The orginal writings said: " 6. This is he that came by water and blood, Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness because the Spirit is truth. 7. For there are three that bear witness, the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree in one. 9. If we receive the witness of man, the witness of God is greater," (numbers added)

You might say that God would never allow anyone to remove or add to the bible, that the bible is 100% correct with no errors. However the bible says differently! Notice:
Rev 22:18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
Rev 22:19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
In other words, God gave a curse against anyone who would add to or remove from the bible. If God would not allow man to do so, then why would He warn of this? It's clear that He knew men would do so.

The Holy Ghost could not be sent until the Son, Jesus, returned to the Father in Heaven. In other words, the Holy Ghost could not be sent until after Jesus died, resurrected and ascended back into Heaven so that He could return as His very own Ghost within the hearts and souls of humans. Jesus is the Holy Ghost. He has always been the Word of God. In the beginning there was the Word and the Word was God and came to dwell among men. The Holy Ghost/the Living Word teaches us and reminds us of what HE/Jesus said! Jesus and the Holy Ghost are one and the same person! The Holy Spirit is the Father. In Acts, they spoke with other tongues (in the Holy Ghost) as the Spirit gave utterance. In Greek, the words "spirit" and "ghost" is the same word but the English translators realized there was a difference between the two and correctly or at least some of the time correctly translated it differently to show that there was and is a difference. To understand more about the difference, please see our What is the Holy Ghost article.
