How do you see the Holy Ghost/Holy Spirit? Do you believe He is active in our lives today? If so, how? If not, why not?

Basically, the presence and activity of the Holy Spirit is the only essential for the church's life and ministry. Without Holy Spirit, we are the blind leading the blind. We ignore the Spirit's prompting at our peril.

The Holy Spirit seals and regenerates believers (Eph. 1:13, Titus 3:5) and convicts the lost concerning sin, righteousness and judgment (John 16:8).

Agreed.

To be exact, He convicts the church of righteousness (because believers are constantly sin conscience) v. 10, unbelievers of sin v. 9, and the enemy of judgement. v.11

Do you (all who have posted so far) believe that the Holy Ghost plays any role in your personal life?

The Holy Spirit connects with our soul, and directs our soul and mind. Specifically, he/it guides us, leads us, and clarifies matters for us. It's having a bit of God / the universe inner-dwelling in us; linking us to all.

It'd be pretty shabby to not have he/it; leaving a bit gap in the link with God / cosmic. The Holy Spirit is certainly very mysterious. I like it not being well-defined. We need to things loose like that, to remind us we don't and can't know everything.

Thank you. That's exactly what I believe!

Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ is the one who does all the spiritual gifts of the Holy Spirit through people who listen and do what the Lord tells His Children what to do and gives them a Word to activate them in their gifts, like preaching and teaching through the gift of Holy Spirit, where God will quicken a Word from His time ........................ Gifts of Evangelism where God will quicken a Word to talk to people to get them saved or give them baby steps to evangelize them ...................... Gifts of prophecy where God will quicken people with a voice for prophecy to give a Word from God for His time ................... Even gifts of apostle which God will quicken a lead in His spirit to have people with these gifts to open up new church in different areas of the world which will be victorious ...................... Even gifts of prayer which healing and intersession and deliverance of spirits all come through Holy Spirit and the gifts of God ....................... Even gifts of wisdom for people which could be at jobs not connected to believers or churches for the children of God will be one step ahead of people on their job employment for victory of His Children in the world and preparing a place in the world, ............ even having a diet plan where His children and praying for Good health, the list is end list where the children of God are interacting with Him in their lived for victory Holy Spirit will deliver a lead from God
