Whenever christians start talking about their "holy spirit", my invariable response to them is to say that the only "spirit" they have ever had any dealings with is the one mentioned in M'lachim Alef 22:20-22 -

וַיֹּאמֶר יְיָ מִי יְפַתֶּה אֶת אַחְאָב וְיַעַל וְיִפֹּל בְּרָמֹת גִּלְעָד וַיֹּאמֶר זֶה בְּכֹה וְזֶה אֹמֵר בְּכֹה׃
וַיֵּצֵא הָרוּחַ וַיַּעֲמֹד לִפְנֵי יְיָ וַיֹּאמֶר אֲנִי אֲפַתֶּנּוּ וַיֹּאמֶר יְיָ אֵלָיו בַּמָּה׃
וַיֹּאמֶר אֵצֵא וְהָיִיתִי רוּחַ שֶׁקֶר בְּפִי כָּל נְבִיאָיו וַיֹּאמֶר תְּפַתֶּה וְגַם תּוּכָל צֵא וַעֲשֵׂה כֵן׃


Then Adonai said, "Who will lure Ah'av to go up to the Gil'ad plateau to be killed?" One said, "Like this" and another said, "Like that".
One spirit [literally, the spirit] emerged and stood in Adonai's presence and said, "I will lure him" - so Adonai said to it, "How?"
It replied, "I will go out and become a lying spirit in the mouths of all his prophets!" - He answered, "You will lure [him] and you will be successful; make it so!"
