'Spirit' in the Bible

Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.

But when he had considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the Child who has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.

“As for me, I baptize you with water for repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, and I am not fit to remove His sandals; He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

After being baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water; and behold, the heavens were opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove and lighting on Him,

Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

For it is not you who speak, but it is the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.

“Behold, My Servant whom I have chosen;My Beloved in whom My soul is well-pleased;I will put My Spirit upon Him,And He shall proclaim justice to the Gentiles.

But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.

“Therefore I say to you, any sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven people, but blasphemy against the Spirit shall not be forgiven.

Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it shall be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this age or in the age to come.

“Now when the unclean spirit goes out of a man, it passes through waterless places seeking rest, and does not find it.

He *said to them, “Then how does David in the Spirit call Him ‘Lord,’ saying,

Keep watching and praying that you may not enter into temptation; the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and yielded up His spirit.

Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,
