The One who makes holy...

For there are many kinds of spirits mentioned in the Holy Scriptures, such as the spirit of man, heavenly spirits, and evil spirits.  But God's Spirit alone is called the Holy Spirit, that is He who has sanctified and still sanctifies us.  For just as the Father is called "Creator" and the Son is called "Redeemer," so the Holy Spirit, from His work, must be called "Sanctifier," or "One who makes holy."
~BOC, LC, II, 36
