O Espírito Santo
O Espírito Santo é a terceira pessoa da Trindade — Consolador, Mestre e Poder. Ele convence do pecado, guia em toda verdade, distribui dons e produz frutos na vida do cristão.
O Consolador prometido
Jesus prometeu enviar o Consolador — o Espírito da Verdade — que estaria para sempre com os discípulos e os guiaria em toda verdade.
I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Comforter,
I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Comforter, the Spirit of truth, who will always be with you. The world cannot accept him because it isn’t looking for him and doesn’t know him. But you know him because he lives with you and will be in you.
I will not abandon you like orphans: I will come back to you. Soon the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you will live too. On that day you will know that I live in the Father, you live in me, and I live in you. Those who keep my commands are the ones who love me, those who love me will be loved by my Father. I will love them too, and will reveal myself to them."
Judas (not Iscariot) responded, "Lord, why would you reveal yourself to us and not to the world?"
Jesus replied, "Those who love me will do as I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with them. Those who don’t love me don’t do what I say. These words don’t come from me, they come from the Father who sent me.
I’m explaining this to you while I’m still here with you. But when the Father sends the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, in my place, he will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you.

But when the Father sends the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, in my place, he will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you.
But I will send you the Comforter from the Father. When he comes, he will give evidence about me. He is the Spirit of truth who comes from the Father.
But I’m telling you the truth: it’s better for you that I go away, for if I don’t the Comforter won’t come to you. If I go away, I will send him to you. When he comes, he will convince those in the world that they have wrong ideas regarding sin, about what is right, and about judgment:
"I tell you the truth, you can’t enter God’s kingdom unless you are born of water and the Spirit," Jesus told him.
"I tell you the truth, you can’t enter God’s kingdom unless you are born of water and the Spirit," Jesus told him. "What’s born of the body is body, and what’s born of the Spirit is Spirit. Don’t be surprised at my telling you, ‘You must be reborn.’
I wouldn’t have known him except he who sent me to baptize with water had told me, ‘The one you see the Spirit descend to and rest upon, he is the one who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’
O derramamento do Espírito
No Pentecostes, o Espírito desceu como fogo sobre os discípulos. Desde então, todos os que creem recebem o Espírito.
When the day of Pentecost came, they were all meeting together in one place. Suddenly a noise came from heaven like a roaring wind that filled the whole house where they were staying. They saw what looked like separate tongue-shaped flames that settled on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in different languages as the Spirit gave them the ability to do so.
At that time there were devout Jews from every nation on earth living in Jerusalem.

"Repent!" Peter told them. "All of you must be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

"But you will be given power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, throughout Judea and Samaria, and to the farthest places on earth."
When they had finished praying, the building they were meeting in was shaken. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit, and spoke the word of God boldly.

We are witnesses of what happened, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey him."
While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart Barnabas and Saul to do the work I’ve called them to."
When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. After Paul had placed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them and they spoke in tongues and prophesied.
Dons do Espírito
A cada um é concedida a manifestação do Espírito para o bem de todos. Os dons são diversos, mas o Espírito é o mesmo.
The Spirit is given to each of us and is revealed for the good of all. One person is given by the Spirit the ability to speak words of wisdom. Another is given a message of knowledge by the same Spirit. Another receives the gift of strongly trusting in God by the same Spirit. Another receives gifts of healing from that one Spirit. Another is given the ability to perform miracles. Another receives the gift of prophecy. Another is given the gift of spiritual discernment. Another receives the ability to speak different languages, while another is given the gift of interpreting languages. But all of these gifts are the work of the one and the same Spirit, sharing with each person as he alone chooses.
Let me make it clear to you: no one who speaks in the Spirit of God says, "Curse Jesus!" and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord!" except by the Holy Spirit.
Don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit that is within you, that you received from God? You don’t belong to yourself—a price was paid for you! So glorify God in your body!
Don’t you know you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit lives in you?
Who knows anyone’s thoughts except the actual person? In the same way no one knows God’s thoughts except the Spirit of God.
Fruto do Espírito
O fruto do Espírito é amor, alegria, paz, paciência, bondade, fidelidade, mansidão e domínio próprio.
But the Spirit produces fruit such as love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, trust, gentleness, self-control—and there’s no law against these kinds of things!

Since we have this hope we’re never disappointed, for God’s love has been poured into us through the Holy Spirit he’s given us.
for God’s kingdom is not about eating and drinking, but about living right, having peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
May the God of hope completely fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you will overflow with hope through the power of the Holy Spirit!
Não entristeçais o Espírito
Não entristeçais o Espírito Santo de Deus. Não apaguem o Espírito — antes, enchei-vos dele continuamente.
Don’t disappoint the Holy Spirit of God that marked you as belonging to him until the day of redemption.

Don’t get drunk on wine which will wreck your life, but be filled with the Spirit.
Don’t expel me from your presence; don’t take away your Holy Spirit from me.
placed his stamp of approval on us, and given us the guarantee of the Spirit to convince us.
Now the Lord is the Spirit, and wherever the Spirit of the Lord is, there’s freedom.

O Espírito nos capacita
O Espírito intercede por nós, batiza e capacita para o serviço. Ele é poder para a missão e conforto na aflição.
how much more does the blood of Christ—who offered himself in his sinless life to God through the eternal Spirit—clean your consciences from your past sinful lives so you can serve the living God?
But you, my friends, are to build yourselves up through your trust in God. Pray in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves safe in God’s love, and wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ who brings eternal life.
for no prophecy originated in human ideas, but prophets spoke for God as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.
While he was thinking about all of this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and told him, "Joseph, son of David, don’t be afraid to marry Mary because she is pregnant by the Holy Spirit.
But when they put you on trial, don’t worry about how you should speak or what you should say, because you’ll be told what to say at the right time. For it isn’t you who will speak but the Spirit of the Father will speak through you.
I also tell you that if two of you agree here on earth about something you’re praying for, then my heavenly Father will do it for you. For where two or three gather together in my name, I’m there with them."
So go and make disciples of people of all nations, and baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Teach them to follow all the commands I have given you. Remember, I am always with you, to the very end of the world."
When they come to arrest you and put you on trial, don’t worry about what to say. Just say what you’re told at that time, because it’s not you speaking, but the Holy Spirit.
Now it happened that after everyone had been baptized, Jesus was baptized as well. As he was praying, heaven was opened, and the Holy Spirit descended upon him, taking the form of a dove. A voice came from heaven, saying, "You are my son, the one I love. I am truly pleased with you."
"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for he has anointed me to announce good news to the destitute. He has sent me to proclaim that prisoners will be released, the blind will see, the oppressed will be freed,
"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for he has anointed me to announce good news to the destitute. He has sent me to proclaim that prisoners will be released, the blind will see, the oppressed will be freed, and to proclaim the time of the Lord’s favor."
So if you, even though you are evil, still know to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?"
