God sent the Holy spirit to Mary to give her a miraculous birth,then why do you consider him a god.

not a God, an extension of God himself, Father-Son-Holy Spirit=God
That is what most Christians believe
On a personal level I'm still trying to figure that one out myself

God is a Spirit. God is part of a Trinity of one God and three persons: God our loving 1)Mother/Father, 2) Son and 3) Holy Spirit. God's Holy Spirit came upon Mary and she conceived Jesus. The Angel Gabriel who is God's messenger is not the Holy Spirit.

True Christians do not believe the holy spirit is God. At Ps.83:18, Jesus called his Father the "only true God." Since that is true, how can the holy spirit ALSO be the true God? It can't.
If the holy spirit is God, why then did Jesus say at Matt. 24:36 that there was information that ONLY the Father knew. If the holy spirit were God, wouldn't it know just as much as the Father.
At Matt. 11:27, Jesus said: "No one fully know the Son but the Father, neither does anyone fully know the Son but the Father." If the holy spirit were God, why doesn't it fully know the Father or Son?
True Christians do not consider the holy spirit to be God.

Jesus invested Himself, i.e. the myth of the draw close that left monies with 3 of his servants, the guy who invested it and more beneficial gained the optimal advantages; the single which placed the money in a monetary company and drew interest gained a small advantages - and the single which invested none yet hid it away no longer in trouble-free terms did not get a advantages yet what he had grow to be taken from him. The Holy Ghost is a Comforter, promised through Jesus in the previous He left. Jesus did not deposit some thing - The Holy Spirit got here as one closer than a brother - a comforter, to furnish us potential (to spread the note). After being born again, the Christian has the alternative to receive the Holy Spirit or no longer. It has no longer some thing to do with salvation.

Christianity teaches that there are three divine Persons (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) united in the one Supreme Divine Being. These scriptures support this doctrine: Matt 12:32; Luke 12:10; Acts 2:33; 1 Corinthians 12:4-6; 2 Corinthians 13:14.
We don't have a model of this in our physical world and it may be beyond our mortal understanding. God is unimaginably beyond fully understanding. For instance, do ants understand you and me and our thoughts and our workings?

Mary was conceived by the Holy Ghost & also by God, do you think Jesus had 2 daddy's No, Your trinity people tries to make God 3 persons, But God Has never been a person but a Spirit, & the Holy Ghost is the self same spirit of God & not a 3rd. spirit But the only ONE TRUE SPIRIT of God only working now as the Holy Ghost. Therefore The Holy Ghost is God himself, only working now as the comforter, Instead as The Creator, & we are given a measure of that spirit as a Born again Christian.

The Holy Spirit is not a god, the Holy Spirit IS God.

God didn't send the Holy Spirit. God is the Holy Spirit.
He is also the Father.
He is also the Son.
This doesn't mean He is three different gods. He is one God, in three persons.
I know, it's pretty hard for the human mind to fathom this. One day, when we're free from such human limitations, we'll all get to see for ourselves what "this Trinity stuff" is all about.
