Ryrie states that the Holy Spirit has the attributes of personality:
“If personality may be simply described as possessing intellect, emotions (or sensibility), and will [attributes of the human soul, italics mine], then it is easily demonstrated that the Holy Spirit has personality because He has intelligence, emotions, and a will. . . . Actions are attributed to the Holy Spirit that cannot be attributed to a mere thing or influence or personification or power or emanation. Such actions, then, must be those of a person, thus proving personality of the Spirit.”
