153: Scholars on the Personality of the Holy Spirit
The scriptures use the word "spirit" in a wide a range of meaning from "wind" to "intelligent personal beings" including: Man, Devil, demons, angels, the Holy Spirit and even God the Father Himself!

It has been preserved by God to be the authoritative standard for every age and every life. II.

155: Dunn, James D. G.: Christology in the Making, 2nd edition, 1989
The mistake, or so it seems to me, is the equivalent of treating 'person' in the Trinitarian formula ('one substance, three persons') as 'person' in the sense that we now understand 'person', or, more to the point, in the way that Jesus of Nazareth was a person. If the preexistent Word of God, the Son of God, is a person in that sense, then Christianity is unavoidably tritheistic. And if we take texts like Col. 1. 15ff. as straightforward descriptions of the Jesus who came from Nazareth we are committed to an interpretation of that text which has broken clearly and irrevocably from monotheism. Likewise if we assume that the Father/Son language of John's ... But to Dunn's credit, he outright admits the difficulty of his spiritualizing such a large body of texts. Dunn admits that by the close of the first century right through to the Nicene era, the belief in the deity of Christ was not really questioned. He is placed in the difficult position of either saying that the apostles were ... ...
