Perhaps of interest also: in a 1910 edition of "The Catechism Explained" by Fr Spirago, he states plainly, "Christ proved His divine mission and truth of His doctrine by many miracles... Christ of his own power worked miracles; others in the name of God or of Christ."
Our modern catechism seems more nuanced, saying Jesus “accompanied his words with many might works…which manifest that the kingdom is present within him and attest he was the promised Messiah. The signs worked by Jesus attest that the Father has sent him."
I wonder if it's because the post-Vatican II church began more consciously emphasizing the humanity of Jesus as opposed to divinity.
One can see the confusion given the Catechism (695) says: "The humanity the Son assumed was entirely anointed by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit established him as 'Christ'....The Spirit filled Christ and the power of the Spirit went out from him in his acts of healing and of saving. Finally, it was the Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead."
One could be forgiven for thinking the miracles of Jesus came via the Holy Spirit.
The Catechism of the Catholic Church, paragraph 536 says, in part: " The Father's voice responds to the Son's acceptance, proclaiming his entire delight in his Son. The Spirit whom Jesus possessed in fullness from his conception comes to "rest on him". Jesus will be the source of the Spirit for all mankind. " So, yes, you can say that the Holy Spirit lived in Jesus, provided you mean that the Holy Spirit always lived in Jesus.

Father, is it proper to say the Holy Spirit dwelt in the person of Jesus Christ living on earth?
