Theology Proper: 18 THE BIBLICAL VIEW OF GOD
A DISPENSATIONAL THEOLOGY
By Charles F Baker
Spirit means
personality. The essential attributes of spirit are mind, will
and feeling. The spirit in man distinguishes man from the remainder of animal creation.
Only spirits are persons. We do not speak of dogs or cats or horses as persons.
Animals do not have self-consciousness such as spirits have. Therefore, if God
is Spirit He must be a person possessing self-consciousness, intelligence, and
will. This truth is so patent upon every page of the Bible that it would seem
unnecessary to quote proof texts.
