The Nature of the Holy Spirit

John 16:12-15 “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you. All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.”
The Holy Spirit takes from what is the Son's and gives it to believers. All that the Father has is the Son's too. So the Holy Spirit takes from what is the Father's but indirectly by taking it from the Son. Identifying Him only as the Spirit of the Father as if He is simply part of the Father is wrong because makes a nonsense of these words and these words are a light of truth we need to receive about the Spirit of truth.
