I have never read where Jesus instructed us to pray, communicate to the Holy Ghost. In fact, there's literally not a single example of the Apostles doing so or teaching to do as such.
Therefore I believe the closer I get to God the Holy Spirit gets closer to me.

As far as HEARING from the Holy Ghost outside of the norm read the Bible, need to seek forgiveness for that sin, go to Church, etc... it's generally been that person you just saw and felt odd about give that person money, food, whatever and tell them God loves them.
It's through following what the Holy Ghost tells me that allows God to give to someone in need through human interaction. Because throughout the entire process of giving and communicating you end up telling them God loves you.

In all of the New testament their is a contrast From walking in The Flesh and walking in The Holy Spirit. YES, Jesus absolutely spoke about the Holy Spirit, whom is Believers everything. Power, friend, teacher, comforter, leader and sooooo much more.
John 16:13
KJ21
However when He, the Spirit of Truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth; for He shall not speak from Himself, but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak; and He will show you things to come.
In this verse....look closely...The Holy Spirit guides us into all truth....He Speaks to us....He shows us things to come.
2 Corinthians 13:14 ►
New International Version
May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all
This verse calls The Holy Spirit fellowship be with us....This is a friendship, A relationship.....Relationship has conversation and takes both parties to join in.
When a Person accepts Christ Jesus as their Lord and Savior, The Holy Spirit comes and lives in the believer. This is The definition of Salvation, to be reconnected to God through the Finished works on the cross by receiving the awesome Gift ,The Holy Spirit..He indwells believers and is The New life Christ Jesus ordains us to live by. Born again believers don't just hear from the Holy Spirit but we are married to him and live a life pleasing to God through him....I employ you to seek The Baptism of The Holy Spirit
I come in gentleness, kindness, and peace. My intention is not division, confusing, or argument.
May God Bless you with Peace, Joy, hope and love, in Jesus name, Amen
Their could be a misunderstanding in communication but may the peace, unity , and understanding from The Holy Spirit be with us all.
I was commenting on this verse in which I believe is untrue and I gently was attempting to correct and guide you into truth
The Nicene Creed tells us that the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and the Son.
We see this in how Jesus taught us how to pray beginning with Father in Heaven in the Name of Jesus. Jesus even instructed it's through His Name miracles, things asked for, etc should be done.
We pray to Jesus and the Father not the Holy Spirit.
We ask for things in the Name of Jesus not the Holy Spirit.
We command in the Name of Jesus not the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit that proceeds from the Father and Son (Nicene Creed) is delivering the message not the originator sender of the message.
Actually I explained it correctly and your verse proves my recent post before this one.
From the Verse you posted:
He shall hear, that shall He speak; and He will show you things to come.
He delivers the message.
So we don't pray or speak to the messenger.
We do as Jesus said to pray to the Father in Jesus Name and then the Spirit will deliver the message from God to us.
At this point in the discussion, I will not proceed anymore with you because it is leading to an arguments in which we have conflicting interpretation. Neith of us would benefit from arguing our viewpoints or differences in faith. I am of a Pentecostal Denomination in which we believe In all the works of the Holy Spirit in which fellowship and friendship with him is included. You seem to be in a different Denomination. But The two of us I think can agree on this....Jesus Christ is the son of God and our Savior so let us rejoice in this truth and Praise God together and give Thanks together for such an awesome gift of His son Dieing on A cross for our sins....
God Bless you have a wonderful thansgiving
I am Pentecostal 57 years but I believe as the Bible explains not how man thinks.At this point in the discussion, I will not proceed anymore with you because it is leading to an arguments in which we have conflicting interpretation.

It's like Paul wrote in Romans the Holy Spirit searches the Believer for what we need because we don't know how to pray and then intercedes for us through groanings we utter. That is the perfect example of the messenger.
I don't quite understand how you can be Pentecostal and speak of the Nicene Creed? That is of Roman Catholic faith? Pentecostal believers don't usually follow creeds. Only the Bible. Perhaps each Pentecostal church has doctrine according to truth and scripture but not creeds? So I say once again, God Bless you and have a wonderful Thanksgiving
I just quoted it because that's the Creed that introduced the Trinity. Every Creed that exists for the better part aligns to the Nicene Creed. It's just no one has truly understood it.
The people who formatted the Nicene Creed also put your current Bible together and voted which Books were Inspired and which were not.
Do you believe your Bible is perfect?
Your thread opened up the issue brought up since the discussion is specifically about the Holy Spirit. You would be amazed how many Creeds exist and they're based off of the Nicene Creed as a guideline.
But just like the example I gave about hearing what person to give to and tell them God loves them came From God but it was delivered to me through the Holy Spirit living within me. The men who wrote the Bible experienced similar process. God told Moses in the mountain, the other Prophets would do as instructed or said and then we read the story about how it happened and the results. God is the same then as now.
I preach from the ESV but as a Jew I do enjoy the ancient Aramaic and current Tree of Life versions.
