“The Apostle bears witness that this love is the fruit of the Holy Spirit, just like the joy and the peace granted by the Father and Son, when he says: But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, and peace (Gal. 5:22). This love is poured into the hearts of believers by the Holy Spirit: Indeed, the love of God is poured into our hearts by the Holy Spirit (Rom. 5:5). In fact, according to the passages: And the communion of the Holy Spirit be with all of you (2 Cor. 13:13). and: If there is any communion with the Spirit (Phil. 2:1), since everyone who has communion with the Holy Spirit through participation in him possesses God’s Wisdom and Word and Truth in every way, he will also possess a share of holiness with the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. For God is faithful, through whom you have been called to communion with his Son (1 Cor. 1:9). John too writes concerning the Father: If we walk in the light, just as he himself is in the light, we have communion with him (1 Jn. 1:7). And again: But our communion is with the Father and his Son Jesus Christ (1 Jn. 1:3). Therefore, since whoever has communion with the Holy Spirit immediately has communion with both the Father and Son, whenever anyone has the love of the Father, he has it as a gift from the Son through the Holy Spirit. In addition, whenever anyone is a participant of the grace of Jesus Christ, he has the same grace as a gift from the Father through the Holy Spirit.” (Athanasius the Great and Didymus the Blind, Works on the Spirit, pgs. 167-168)
