Who did Paul believe the Holy Spirit to be?

A hint, who did Paul say that warned him about going to a place?

Thanks

This is the section of scripture I was referring to.

Acts 16:6-8(New International Version)
6Paul and his companions traveled throughout the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been kept by the Holy Spirit from preaching the word in the province of Asia. 7When they came to the border of Mysia, they tried to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not allow them to. 8So they passed by Mysia and went down to Troas.

Thanks

No wonder I could'nt find it. We usually assume that everyones in the KJV.

Act 16:6 Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia,
Act 16:7 After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not.
Of course the Holy Ghost is the Spirit of Jesus IMO. It's interesting that both the NIV and the RSV both equate the Holy Spirit with the Spirit of Jesus.
Looking in my Strongs, I see that different Greek words are used when refering to the Holy Ghost in verse 6 and the Spirit in verse 7.

If the Rhua Ha Kodesh(Holy Spirit)is not in Jesus, then He would not be God.
