    I believe very similar like this:

    "We believe that there is but one God, who is a Spirit, and the Creator of all things, the Father of all, over and through or in all, in us all; who is to ne worshiped in spirit and truth; to whom alone we look, as the Giver of life, raiment and food, as well as health and sickness, prosperity and adversity; Him we love as the author of all good, and fear Him as the discerner of our hearts.

    We believe, that Jesus Christ is the Son and image of the Father, in whom dwells all the fullness of the Godhead; by whom we know as the Father; who is our Mediator and Advocate; and there is no other name under heaven given unto men, whereby we may be saved. In His name alone we worship the Father, and pour out no prayers before God, save those contained in the Holy Scriptures, or which fully agree with the sense of the same.

    We believe, that we have a Comforter, the Holy Ghost, who proceeds from the Father and the Son; by whose inspirations we pray, and through whose effectual operation we are regenerated. This Holy Ghost operates in us all good works, and by Him we are led into all truth."

    John ch 14 v 26

    Jesus said the Father would send the Holy Spirit to the disciples after He Jesus was departed .

    Also Jesus was anointed with the Holy Spirit at his baptism by the father .

    A few points to consider.

    God is in full control over all !

    Amen

    Yes, John Chapter 14:26 with some surrounding read the Bible verses.

    14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

    14:24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's that sent me.

    14:25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.

    14:26 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.

    14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your jeart ne troubled, neither let it be afraid.

    14:28 Ye have heard now how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said , I go unto the Father for my Father is greater than I.

    14:29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.

    14:30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

    14:31 But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.
