“Sin could be resisted and overcome only through the mighty agency of the Third Person of the Godhead,” — (E.G. White, The Desire of Ages, 671.2, 1898)

Sin could be resisted and overcome only through the mighty agency of the third person of the Godhead, who would come with no modified energy, but in the fulness of divine power. It is the Spirit that makes effectual what has been wrought out by the world’s Redeemer. It is by the Spirit that the heart is made pure. Through the Spirit the believer becomes a partaker of the divine nature. Christ has given his Spirit as a divine power to overcome all hereditary and cultivated tendencies to evil, and to impress his own character on his church.” {RH May 19, 1904, par. 3} {RH November 19, 1908, Art. B, par. 5}

He determined to give His representative, the third person of the Godhead. This gift could not be excelled. He would give all gifts in one, and therefore the divine Spirit, that converting, enlightening, and sanctifying power, would be his donation…. {ST December 1, 1898, par. 2} {6BC 1052.5}
