Ooh! Intriguing.
I found a few possibilites, although in reality, if you are of the Trinitarian belief you know "A house divided against itself cannot stand," which would include Jesus/HS being the same Person.
Regardless, to amuse my "trivia" indulgance... here are the possibilities:
1) The Spirit was/is given to empower people, and Jesus was led and empowered by him often, as in Luke 4:1...
"Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the desert."
2) The Spirit, though strong in substance and power, often descends as a small seemingly powerless dove, as in Mark 1:10...
"As Jesus was coming up out of the water, he saw heaven being torn open and the Spirit descending on him like a dove."
3) However, the Spirit was not given until Jesus was glorified, as stated in John 7:35....
4) Finally... Rom. 8:11 states that "If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit, who lives in you."
In my opinion, it sounds like it would have to be a TKO. They are one in the same!

More importantly. Have you ever told a lie, stolen anything, disobeyed your parents. These are just 3 of God's moral laws. The Bible tells us that when we die, then God will judge us by His moral laws. We have all sinned and broken God's moral laws, and if you are not born-again, God will send you to Hell to be punished forever. God made a way for us to be forgiven for our Sins. Jesus Christ died on a cross and rose again to take our punishment and pay the debt for our sins. We must Repent, which means to ask God to forgive you for sinning and turn away from sin. Then put your complete Trust in Jesus Christ. Only then will you be accepted into Heaven, not because your a good person, but because you're a bad person who's been Forgiven.

All Jesus would have to do is cross the Mexico/United States border, borrow a cell phone, and call the Ghostbusters.
