Explanation:
Of course, the skeptic forgot to provide the rest of the verses:
“But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things,
and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.” (John 14:26)
“But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth
from the Father, he shall testify of me” (John 15:26)
The Holy Ghost was sent by the Father in the name of Jesus the Son. That means that They both sent it, as They are both intimately
connected to the Spirit in the triune Godhead. As Jesus said:
“And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: I in them, and thou
in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou
hast loved me.” (John 17:22-23)
