Default Re: Christ Becoming The Live-Giving Spirit

Thanks for bringing this post over StG! I thought about that as soon as I hit the "post" button!

Actually Lee did NOT teach that the HS did not exist before the resurrection (even Witness wouldn't go that far!) what he did teach is the the Spirit was "intensified" and that Jesus' humanity was "added" to the Holy Spirit. Lee's take was that the verse in John that says "the Spirit was not yet" meant that the Spirit was not yet existing with the humanity of Jesus added, and some how, some way, the power of the resurrection intensified him to become "the life-giving Spirit". This all fits in with his "processed triune God" teaching, where God literally went through a "process", and in this process the humanity of Jesus was "added" to the Holy Spirit. I'm kind of surprised you don't remember this teaching....it was a staple, bread and butter teaching of Witness Lee.
