I hope your answer wont be the Holy spirit because the holy spirit was mentioned in the bible before Jesus(as) departed from this world, so it is ovious that is definately not the answer because the truthful spirit only suppose to come after Jesus (as) departed from this world.
Read the link above & tell me......... who is the truthful spirit?

Just as i thought all christians will say the Holy spirit - If you read the Bible when Mary gave birth - the bible says
"How will this be," Mary asked the angel, "since I am a virgin?" The angel answered, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God."
Luke 1:34-5
How can it be the Holy spirit when the bible clearly states the Holy spirit was around before Jesus was born.
Come on - the evidence is infront of you , if you cant tell me who the truthfull spirit is because you have not sat down & researched this, Islam provides all the facts why we say Muhammed(saw) is the truthful spirit mentioned in the bible but the bible does not give any facts of who the truthful spirit is, All christians say its the holy spirit , how can it be if Jesus himself says in the bible that the spirit will only come after he has departed from this world. Give me facts to back up your answers.

Acid -(u misunderstood me) when i said people make themselves gay , i meant that God does not make people gay - no one is born gay. People become gay because they have been misled by satan or people with evil intentions. I dont think any person truly wants to be gay - everyone wants to live a life thats normal. The only cure for gay people is Prayer & having faith that God will guide them on the right path. Being Gay i believe is a sin & i am not alone the 3 main religions also believe it is a sin (judaism, christianity, Islam)
So i am not saying this to offend anyone , I am only saying what God has said in all religious scriptures.

It is almost impossible not to insult when this is laughable.
Sorry but Jesus refered to the Holy spirit that was to be with us forever it is repeated in Acts and John is the Holy Spirit...This Deut. 18 refers to Christ and comparing an unlearned man to Moses is ...er unlearned...Isaiah was about the holy one of Isreal the Messiah who atones for sin not likely Mhammad huh? Now if you read Isaiah I will take it a piece at a time.
10 For the LORD hath poured out upon you the spirit of deep sleep, and hath closed your eyes: the prophets and your rulers, the seers hath he covered.
This is saying God is causing the prophets to be blinded.
11 And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed:
This shows even though they are learned they can not see the prophesy.
12 And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned.
He could not tell the prophesy because he was now unlearned ...because God caused a sleep to fall over him and his eyes were closes and he was as unlearned.
Now this man had received the prospesy but because of the evil in the world he was a blinded peophet and could not see the prophesy...later we see the prophesy that he could not see was the propesy of Jesus' coming...While I would agree that Muhammad and all Muslims are spiritualy blinded this does not refer to Muhammad.
Edit...When you are writing about the Holy Spirit causing Mary to have Jesus are you saying he was in the world? First the Holy Spirit is God a part of the whole of God and he was in heaven with the Father and if you read the Bible as opposed to picking out verses you will see he entered Jesus at his baptism...When Jesus was resurrected he told them he would send the comforter...The Holy Spirit and it would be with them forever...Read the book and you will definitelt see it is not in agreement with Muhammad and Muhammad not in agreement with Jesus no prophet of God was ever not in agreement with the word of God read what Moses taught about prophets its the first rule he must be in agreement with scripture Muhammad was not ...he must be in agreement with the other prophets Muhammad was not...Now why would scripturte tell you that a man was coming that is going to tell you this scripture is a lie???? This only makes sense to Muslims!!!!!!!!!!

Because the Holy Spirit IS the Spirit of God which was the same Spirit that was in Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ was the full Spirit of God in the flesh. The Law that Moses brought to his people were the LAWS according to God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Jesus magnified His Father's Laws during His ministry. So these laws never changed after the death of Jesus. ........God chose the first Pentecost after Jesus Christ's resurrection to pour out the Holy Spirit on 120 believers. (Acts 1:15), .."Now when the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began with other tongues [languages], as the Spirit gave them utterance" (Acts 2:14).........Peter explained how his listeners could also receive this Spirit: "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call" (Acts 2:38-39). There's the real truth to your question. So put away your false beliefs and don't be ridiculous.

It is true the holy Ghost came after Jesus was gone, Why would they need a comforter while Jesus wa here in the flesh, & Jesus did Call the Comforter The Holy Ghost, & that Holy Ghost came on the day of Pentacost, & not 400 yrs later. nOw if you try to tist a subject around by using our bible, You need better answers & questions then this, Yes I can see right through what you are trying to say, Since you like to try to twist our bible around read St. John 14:26 But the comforter which is the HOLY GHOST, & not mohammed.------------------------You are trying to say the holy Ghost has been around before Jesus was Born, That is true, Because the Holy Ghost is the spirit of God. Now as far as your muslum ideals about who the holy ghost is, you try to say the comforter is Mohammed, No it is not, remember The Holy Ghost was around 400 yrs before your false prophet, So now let's get the record straight The Holy Ghost is the Comforter, & it is also The spirit of God, & has notheing to do with mohammed.

according to the Bible the Spirit of truth came after Jesus ascended to heaven. in the outpouring of Pentecost upon all who were there in the upper room. and was given to all who believed that Jesus was raised from the dead and received. the Holy Spirit is no longer exclusive to just upon prophets, priests, or kings as in the Old Testiment.
the only accepted holy book of the Jews is the Torah and the books of the OT prophets.
mohammad is not a Jew so none of the scriptures applied to him by the author of that article actually apply to mohammad for the admission is that mohammad is Arab.
the Holy Spirit is mentioned in genesis and throughtout the Bible. Jesus said that the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of truth. and those moved upon by the Holy Spirit speak truth.
the author of the article says that mohammad is the spirit of truth. based on natural aspects rather than spiritual ones. natural lineage. moses a man being prophet, therefore saying that mohammad is likewise a prophet like moses. those are natural aspects, not spiritual.
while at the same time the author of the article ignores all natural and spiritual aspects of Jesus authority recorded in the Bible.
moses did the will of God. led the Jews out of Egypt. and was leader over them in the wilderness. moses interceded for the Jews when they did wrong things.
what record is there of what mohammad has said about the Jews?
we have the record of all God's prophets mentioned in the Bible. and unfortunately for mohammad, he is not mentioned.
from this .. what conclusion?

Holy Spirit.
He is mentioned throughout the old testament. As early as Genesis 1:1.
The difference after Jesus was that the Holy Spirit could "indwell" people, whereas before He could only "come upon" people.

i respect the way u reason and that alone is prove for my self that the word in the bible is dead but those that received the holy spirit can understand it and for those alone it will come to life and in a nut sell the lord wants us to serve him in spirit and if u understand the story in spirit , no need to justify it by asking what is the truthful spirit.

I am a Christian.
Why does it matter to you what I believe?
Live your life in grace.
My beliefs should be inconsequential.
If you feel a need to convert, then convert with your actions.
If you feel a need to justify your self, tough.
Most Christians could care less about your beliefs, they are YOUR believes.
In the end when we all meet our maker, the truth will be known. In the mean time it takes a leap of faith. Your's is fine to me, for you. Stay the F out of mine.
Personally if you don't like mine, then don't pay attention.
Not one bit of scripture.
BTW Don't mix old and new testaments. Don't quote letters from the apostles as though they are sublime. Realize their history and keep them in context. Don't mix Saul with Paul.
If you feel the need to commit an act of contrition, don't do it in public.

Yup...I agree...it's the holy spirit.
I don't buy all that stuff trying to prove taht Muhammad was the prophet that the old testament was talking about. It is a human take on a spritual prophecy. I do not see that it makes any sense at all.

Jesus is called the "word" of God.
the HOLY Ghost is NOT jesus but a third personage in the godhead. All three (3) reign in heaven.
Mohammed was a messenger of the three. Or so he claimed.
