In the gospels we read that when Jesus was baptized in the Jordan river by John the Baptist, the Holy Spirit descended in the form of a dove.

So Christians have used the dove to depict the Holy Spirit, because the Holy Spirit is the third person of the Godhead and therefore He is very important.

When Jesus ascended to the right hand of the Father, the Holy Spirit was sent to indwell and empower believers in their life of faith.
