Essentially it is your core. It is who you truely are. Your body is just a shell.

A common mistake made with regard to the Holy Spirit is referring to the Spirit as "it," which the Bible never does. This is because the Holy Spirit is a person. He has the attributes of personhood, performs the actions of persons, and has personal relationships. He has insight (1 Corinthians 2:10-11). He knows things, which requires an intellect (Romans 8:27). He has a will (1 Corinthians 12:11). He convicts of sin (John 16:8). He performs miracles (Acts 8:39). He guides (John 16:13). He intercedes between persons (Romans 8:26). He is to be obeyed (Acts 10:19-20). He can be lied to (Acts 5:3), resisted (Acts 7:51), grieved (Ephesians 4:30), blasphemed (Matthew 12:31), even insulted (Hebrews 10:29). He relates to the apostles (Acts 15:28), and to each member of the Trinity (John 16:14; Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14). The personhood of the Holy Spirit is presented without question in the Bible.

It can be both. Each time the Holy Spirit is present it is always different

since the holy spirit is God, we can make some statements about him from general statements about God. God is spirit as opposed to physical or material. God is invisible and spirit.. this is why no material thing was ever to be used to represent God.

We were made in the "image of God."
God has a personality (a perfect one I might add), and so we have one too. It has just been marred by sin, but it still resembles our creator.

Your spirit looks like you, your body isn't created after God, your spirit is, your body is a Gift so you can become a God, like unto God.

John 3:16[kjv] "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." so when we believe in JESUS we have eternal life.JESUS lived a sinless life and gave up his life as a sacrifice so we can be sin free. Ask JESUS to come into your heart and forgive ur sins and cleanse ur past with his blood.
With a simple prayer like above u can be saved.JESUS loves u and wants u to be saved.
