One in Spirit

A lot of people today look at the Spirit of God the way we used to look at the old scuba diving tanks. They had two tanks on the back, and they had to get the mixture perfect between the two, but they always had two tanks. Most people still look at that interaction the same way today. 'Well, here I am, and there is the Holy Spirit. I am over here, and the Holy Spirit is over there.' They think of it just like the two tanks on the scuba divers.

Then they figured out, 'We could mix these two gases and get a perfect mixture so that nobody would have to mess with the mixture. It would be perfect, and we could just put them together in one tank.' Now, when you see the scuba divers, instead of having two tanks, they have one tank because the mixture is perfect, and they don’t have to mess with it. Why is it that in the church they still talk about the Spirit of God as being separate from us?

"But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit." - 1 Cor. 6:17
