I see you are new here. I'm pretty new myself. If you want to read some fascinating posts, check out the posts made by KingdomOfZion. He posted on various subjects, including the office of the Holy Ghost, and Adam-God. He posted a downloadable copy of a book about Adam-God by a guy named Craig Tholson. I'm not sure I agree with everything Tholson says, but he does make some good points about Adam-God (notice I'm not saying "theory"). Tholson covers about every statement on this subject ever made by church authorities.

But, back to the topic at hand. KingdomOfZion makes the case that the Holy Ghost is an office and that any member of the church of the firstborn can act in this office. Other people have stated this as well. This is the best and most succinct explanation I have heard.

"The Holy Spirit is the mind of God, as it is described in the Lectures on Faith. The Holy Ghost term can be used in the same way. This power is the glory of God shared amongst His servants. The Holy Ghost gift is a change of one’s spirit to a higher level of glory. The personage is either the soul after it has received the glory, or the Spirit being exercised by someone." This was written by an anonymous person who has received his Second Comforter and written several books on the subject. Here is a link to this statement on his blog. https://purerevelations.wordpress.com/our-temporal-progression/
