Why Latter-day Saints Call It the Holy Ghost
Original: It’s Halloween time. Let’s talk ghosts — the Holy Ghost, and why Latter-day Saints use that term.
The Salt Lake Tribune has published a piece timed to Halloween exploring why members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints use the term 'Holy Ghost' rather than 'Holy Spirit'. The article explains the church's teaching that the Holy Ghost is a distinct member of the Godhead, a spirit being without a body, and how that doctrine shapes Mormon terminology and worship.
Why now: Halloween prompts seasonal interest in ghosts, giving religious outlets a hook to explain the theological term.
