The Holy Spirit is a what not a who. It is Gods active force which He and Jesus used to create the universe,' Let us make man in our image'. Also holy Spirit did things life giving people the ability to speak in foriegn languages at Penticost in order to spread the Good News of the Kingdom.When Holy Spirit came upon people back in Biblical times and it still dose in some instances today helps men and woman to do things which would be impossible to do on their own. I hope I heped.

The comforter Jesus said He would send after He was gone.
There are three that bear witness in heaven. The Father, The Son, and the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost is also a Holy Spirit.

The third Divine Soul. The first, referred to as the "Father", is the wisest and most just Soul in the Universe, the "Son" is the most considerate and caring Soul in the Universe, and the "Holy Ghost" is the most brave Soul in the Universe. Between them they have all the attributes jointly amounting to perfection. Their roles towards each other are complementary. A fascinating topic. Read all about it in "Rational Spirituality" on the Dhaxem website. Best wishes.

The second thing to be created right after Christ. It provides the Blessings of God on his people. For hundreds of years, it resided in the Most Holy of the Temple, until ancient Israelites rejected Christ. When Christ died, the great curtain made of spun gold tore open for all to see that it no longer resided there. Then after, Christians became God's People, or New Israelites, though they began falling away within decades after Christ died. The Apostle Paul said that it was like he had worked for nothing for they had returned to rituals, observances, and holidays of men.
These days, the Holy Spirit takes care of the selection of those who are born again and will be resurrected to be overseers in Heaven, though that job is pretty well done.

He is the third person of the triune God. He is the comforter sent after Jesus ascended to heaven to lead the believer in all Truth. Each person who is born again has the Holy Spirit inside them to guide them in their walk. hope this helps. if not email me.

He is a Comforter, and lives inside of us... if you ask Him to. The Holy Spirit is the very presence of God and can enable you to do things you never thought possible.

I am a non Christian , so as requested, I will not answer this!
Because although I am an atheist I am still a nice feller, I am puzzled as to why you would ask the question, maybe you really don't know?
The Christian religion is just a bit more complicated than other religions, but just as unbelievable as all the rest!
Did you really expect your question to remain unanswered by unbelievers??
