The names discussed in the question are all designations by which Paul is referring to God the Holy Spirit, the third Person of the Trinity. Paul uses additional titles for the Holy Spirit in other passages in his epistles, including the Spirit of holiness (Romans 1:4), the Spirit of life (Romans 8:2), the Spirit of adoption (Romans 8:15), the Spirit of the Lord (2 Corinthians 3:17), the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation (Ephesians 1:17), and the Spirit of His [that is, God's] Son (Galatians 4:6).
