That's because the Holy Spirit is a title for God. The Spirit of God is described in Genesis 1:2.
My point is the understanding of God as a trinity is false. God is not some confused amalgamation of three beings in one but is uniquely the Father and the Father has begotten a Son who is God by inheritance as the son of a lord is also a lord by inheritance.
In Gen 1:1-2 where it says "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form, and void; and darkness [was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.
Why does the Bible say the "Spirit of God" using the definite article to indicate the Spirit of God as a separate entity?
Jesus tells us directly that God is a Spirit. How do you thing God is omnipresent? His spirit dwells among us. John 4:24.
In John 14:26 Jesus says, "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you."
If God and the Holy Spirit were the same, the verse would not make sense. God is spirit and separate from the Holy Spirit.
John 14:28. 28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.
At times Holy Spirit refers to the Father and at times it refers to the Son. In this passage we see it refers to the Son. Both the Father and the Son are spirits. They are spirits of the same essence as the Son was taken out of (begotten by) the Father without hands.
We are spirits driving meat suits. Christ was a holy spirit driving a meat suit. When He's not driving a meat suit He is here in holy spirit form.
It's clear from John 14:28 that Christ was speaking of Himself in the third person in 14:26.
