The HS is part of the triune god. It is the part of God that gives us faith and inspires us as Christians to live that faith.

Hadn’t thought of that angle. Got a scriptural reference for me to look up?

“elipsis”? Don’t know that one!

I believe it’s Ellipsis singular and Ellipses plural.

Are we referring to a chapter or something else?

Chapter and verse. …

I don’t have that chapter in my version let alone ever heard of it.

I’m still trying to figure out if he’s just talking chapters there or if I’m missing something. I think he’s busy and speed posting tonight.

ellipsis

An ellipsis is a series of three consecutive periods known as ellipsis points ( . . . ) used to indicate where words have been omitted from quoted text

Hmmm! Interesting! I Guess I will wait for him to come back to clarify things, but Romans 8:26 seems to make more sense at this point!
