1. Three Spirits are called as the Spirit of God.
Three Spirits are known by the name, "the Spirit of God" in the Bible. They are: 1). The one and only Spirit, who has the Omni-powers, is God. For details, please use this link: "The True God." 2). Holy Ghost, who is a person, is one of the three souls nested in the Omnipotent Spirit of God. He is a soul, but not a spirit, even though he is called a spirit. For details, please use this link: "The Holy Ghost is a God Person." And 3). Holy Spirit, he is Spirit of man, and he is also called 'Spirit of God.' Actually this Spirit, which were the third part of Adam and Eve, which died when they have committed sin. Jesus Christ tells us to be born again, that is to receive this spirit from God, and to be a complete person. Let me give a reference link for how God has created man. Reference link is this: "God created man to overcome." However, let us continue to study about the Spirit of man in this lesson.
2. Holy Spirit, is Spirit of Man, is Spirit of God.
Usually Christians think that holy spirit is God. This mistake arises because preachers are confused with the holy spirit with the Holy Ghost. God calls the spirit of man, which Adam and Eve lost when they have committed sin, as the holy spirit since the spirit of man could not stand sin and died, and it gives life to soul to live for heaven to inherit the kingdom in heaven.
Isaiah 63:11, Zechariah 12:1, 1 Corinthians 2:11, Proverbs 20:27, Ecclesiastes 3:21, and Zechariah 12:1 say {Isaiah 63:11 says: "he (God) put his holy Spirit within him (man)." Zechariah 12:1 says: "God form the spirit of man within him." So, the holy spirit is called as spirit of man, since it is given to man. 1 Corinthians 2:11 says: "For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God." Proverbs 20:27 says: "The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly." Ecclesiastes 3:21 says: "Who knoweth the spirit of man that goeth upward, and the spirit of the beast that goeth downward to the earth?" Zechariah 12:1 says: "... the LORD, ... formeth the spirit of man within him."} that the names, "the spirit of man" and "the holy spirit" are used for the same spirit in man. So, we must know that the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Man. However, the holy spirit will not force the soul to be holy but lead the soul to holy life. If the person chooses not to follow the holy spirit, but continues in sin, the holy spirit will be grieved. Then, God will take the holy spirit away from him, or we may say that the person has quenched the spirit. David had sinned, and he was afraid that God would take the holy spirit away from him. He prayed to God in "Psalm 51:11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me." David recognized that God gives the spirit, and God may also take it away. We must also take the warning seriously and follow our spirit.In "John 3:3 Jesus says, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." So, if we do not receive the spirit, we cannot even see heaven. "Ephesians 1:13 ... after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, 14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance ..." So the holy spirit will be sealed into us, as an earnest, that is an advance, to the inheritance in heaven. That is, if we do not have the spirit, we cannot get to heaven. Romans 8:9 says, "... Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his." So, if we do not have the spirit, we do not belong to Christ.
3. The Spirit of Man gives life to the Soul of Man.
In the beginning God created man with the body and soul as a living man. God gave him a spirit to this man by blowing through his nose. "Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." It made the living man also a living soul. So, with the spirit, the man, that is we human beings have become two lives, one with the soul and flesh body, and the other with the soul and the Spirit body. But Adam lost the spirit and had spiritually died. His generation, that is us are born in his image and likeness, that is with no spirit. It is in Genesis 5:3. {"And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; ..."} So, Jesus Christ tells us to be born again, that is to receive our spirit, that is the holy spirit, from God. If we do, our soul will live again, and we can live for God as a spirit person. "Ephesians 2:1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins: ... 5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:" So, our spirit, which is holy spirit, will raise us from dead life to living spiritual life and will seat us with Jesus Christ in heavenly places. How do we know that our ne spirit life is just fake or real? Ephesians 2:10 says, born again people are "created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." So, if we have received the holy spirit from God, we will be doing good works, and let others see what God has happened in our life. So, as we are living in our body in the world, but our spirit, which is the holy spirit, we will be living for God avoiding sins, because our sins will kill the spirit as it killed Adam and Eve at the garden of Eden. So we will neither grieve, nor quench the spirit, which is the holy spirit.
4. Natural Man don't understand, Spiritual Man does.
Spiritual things cannot be sensed or proven by worldly means or intelligence. If we have not received the holy Spirit from God, we will not understand spiritual things. "1 Corinthians 2:10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. 11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? ..." So we will not know anything of God, if we do not have the spirit. But our intelligence will tell us that we can figure out all things and Satan use our intelligence to fool us in godly matters. 12 says: "Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God." It refers to our spirit that is the holy spirit, which we have received from God. Since we have the holy Spirit, we will know the things that God freely gives. 13 says: "Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual." Since we have the holy spirit in us, we are able to speak the things that the Holy Ghost teaches. Example, I am as a pastor reveal what the Spirit says, whereas my co-pastors who are with me teach from theology and the doctrine of the churches with their intelligence. So, a few of us understand spiritual things, and we will enable us to compare spiritual things with spiritual. 14 says: "But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." It is about the congregation. Those who are without the holy spirit cannot comprehend spiritual things; to them, spiritual things appear to be foolish. So, you must also be born again, and you must study the word of God only from those who are born again with proof of manifestation of righteousness and godliness. Bottom line is, that let our spirits, that is the holy spirit, that we have received from God, lead our lives in the ways of God for us to inherit the kingdom of God in heaven.

What is the true gospel and what are false gospels?
Matthew 28:20, & Mark 16:15. Jesus Christ preached his commandments to obey, as his
Gospel; it is the true Gospel to inherit Eternal life. Genesis 3:1-4 & 2 Corinth 11:2-4. But Preachers, who are Serpents of Satan, preach the life of man Jesus just to believe, but not to live as a chaste virgin, as the gospel; it is another gospel, which cannot and will not give Eternal life.What will the true Gospel do?
The true gospel will convert evil people to do good and thereby they will inherit the kingdom in heaven.
John 3:19-21 say that people are two kinds, evil and true. Evil doers will not come to the Light, who is God; but people of truth come to God for their deeds to be made manifest. We have good and evil people by our standard of our society or culture. These evil people may be converted to be doers of truth by the power of God, and they may inherit the kingdom of God in heaven.
