Biblical Understanding based on the Record of Scripture
A review of what God is up to with us, and a look at one of the 3 general meanings of "holy spirit" when we come across the phrase in scripture. To understand, we must begin to differentiate these 3 when we come across them in our study. Our spirit, which goes back to God upon our death, needs to become holy, just like our Father's, and that of our brother, the Christ. This is one meaning of "holy spirit" we need to become aware of, and consider in terms of what it means to us individually.

Ephesians 2:1-3 NLT
Once you (we) were dead because of your (our) disobedience, and your (our) many sins.
You used to live in sin just like the rest of the world, obeying the devil-that commander of the unseen world. He is the spirit at work in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God.
All of us used to live that way, following the passionate desires and inclinations of our sinful nature. By our very nature we were subject to God's anger, just like everyone else.
