There is massive confusion over the Holy Spirit. Many things are attributed to Him that He has no part of. Many things that He truly does are not honoured, admired or praised. One side of the church expects Him to do things that Scripture does not promise He would always do in all times. Another side of the church fails to expect Him to do the very things He did promise to do. So what could we expect the Holy Spirit to do?

Three men on three crosses

On what we think was Friday April 3, 33 A.D., there were three men sentenced to death by Rome, condemned to die by what they called the extreme penalty: death by crucifixion. We don't know the names of two of the men; we only know them by the description given…
