Your version of “intimacy” with the Holy Spirit sounds more like emotional projection than biblical truth. The Holy Spirit is not your “best friend” on your terms. He is the Spirit of the holy God, who testifies to Christ, not your feelings.

Yes, Scripture isn’t God, but it is God-breathed (2 Tim. 3:16), and you don’t get to pit “relationship” against the Word. That’s how cults start.

True intimacy with God comes through His means, not your imagination. And His means are Word, sacrament, prayer, and obedience, not vibes, not feelings, and certainly not foul-mouthed rebukes in His name.

God is not your life coach. He’s your Creator, Lawgiver, Judge, and Redeemer.

Repent of your arrogance. The Holy Spirit convicts of sin, and does not coddle it
