How much does it weigh?
When a new person accepts god, does everyone lose a little of their holy spirit to make enough for the new believer?
Last of all, has anyone ever weighed someone immediately before and immediately after a Saving took place?

According to Duncan MacDougall, the soul/spirit weighs 21 grams.

The holy spirit is part of the trinity. God the father, Jesus his son who was sent to earth to die for us and pay the price for our sin, and they Holy Spirit is the comforter and guider. He doesn't weigh anything cause he is immortal. When Jesus was born and lived on the earth and taught and then died. But three days later he rose again!! Yey! Then when assended back to heaven he said I will leave you a comforter, the Holy Spirit to be with you. So the trinity is like us we have a physical body, a mind, and a spirit that will live eternally. Our spirit is what goes to heaven or hell when we die. So when you get saved you don't weigh more. The Holy Spirit is with you all the time, to comfort, direct, and show you what you need to do. Hope this helped!

The Holy Spirit is God, and He doesn't weigh any weight because He is not physical. God is a Spirit and He is everywhere at the same time. So when a person recieves the Holy Spirit, they get all of the Holy Spirit, since all of the Holy Spirit is everywhere at the same time. www.equip.org

You're thinking of the Holy Spirit as if he's like pizza - if you take some of him to one room it means there's less of him in an other room. Really he's more like music - omnipresent - so you can have the complete person in more than one place at the same time.
Sorry it's a bit simple - but hope it helps!
Interesting question!

According to Jesus, the creator of the Holy Spirit, it is a comforter. Comfort cannot be measured using non-spiritual terms so while everyone saved has access to it, its not a possession.

Spirit is not matter, it is a vibration, so there is no weight.
