The Holy Spirit, Holy Ghost, Spirit of God, Pneumatology"The personality of the Spirit has been the faith of the Church from the beginning. It had few opponents even in the chaotic period of theology; and in modern times has been denied by none but Socinians, Arians, and Sabellians. Before considering the direct proof of the Church doctrine that the Holy Spirit is a person, it may be well to remark, that the terms 'The Spirit,' 'The Spirit of God,' 'The Holy Spirit,' and when God speaks, 'My Spirit,' or, when God is spoken of 'His Spirit,' occur in all parts of Scripture from Genesis to Revelation; These and equivalent terms are evidently to be understood in the same sense throughout the Scriptures." - Charles Hodge - The Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit in the Life of the Christian by R. A. Finlayson

The Personality and Procession of the Holy Spirit by George Smeaton
I PURPOSE to discuss to-day the DIVINE PERSONALITY of the Holy Spirit. This is a point on which few doubts may be entertained by the vast majority of believing men among us.
The Sovereignty of God the Holy Spirit in Salvation by Arthur W. Pink
The mission of the Holy Spirit in the world today is to apply the benefits of Christ’s redemptive sacrifice. The question which is now to engage us is not the extent of the Holy Spirit’s power—on that point there can be no doubt, it is infinite—but what we shall seek to show is that His power and operations are directed by Divine wisdom and sovereignty.
The Work of the Holy Spirit in Our Salvation (Chapter 7) by Thomas Goodwin
How the Holy Ghost is the author of regeneration, or the first application of salvation to us, in a more peculiar manner, comparatively to the other two persons.
The Work of the Holy Spirit in our Salvation (Chapter 8) by Thomas Goodwin
How the Holy Ghost is the gift of God the Father to us, in and by Jesus Christ.—That this inestimable gift is bestowed freely, by the pure mercy, grace, and love of God.
