I have already told you all this. I have told you that the time of settling down for the spirit world will come. Haven't you learnt that based on returning resurrection the work of unification will be accomplished? Unification will take place through the return of spirits. You have to be grateful toward Heaven which is at work trying to be in harmony with the era of transition into the new history. (170-286)

"Holy spirit" here is not the same as the Holy Spirit as part of the trinity of God. A more accurate translation would have been "divine spirit" or "sacred spirit" because the first of the two Chinese characters that make up the term, "Shin" refers to a divine being or god, while the second character, "Ryeng," means ghost or spirit. Moreover, divine spirit is the way that the dictionaries translate the word. However, because the official translation has always been "holy spirit," it will be left as it is despite the obvious confusion.
