The Holy Spirit + Rhoda (Green)

If you have The Holy Spirit in play and make a rescue with Rhoda (Green) using her ability, does The Holy Spirit activate?

The Holy Spirit - Place in your territory: when your N.T. Hero enters battle, you may search your deck or discard pile for a Fruit of the Spirit Enhancement.

Rhoda (Green) - Look at the top card of your draw pile. You may withdraw Rhoda from battle.

Seeing as Rhoda is a NT Hero, yes, it activates. Rhoda's Reference is listed in the normal spot, even if the verse isn't printed. And even if the Acts reference was missing, she would still be a NT Hero as cards always have a Testament, even if the don't have a reference.

Here's a question: Is Antiochus IV Epiphanes a NT hero because his reference is from Josephus or does the NT begin as soon as Malachai ends?

I believe the question wasn't whether she is NT, but whether her return would trigger.

Holy Spirit says "enters battle".  While it cannot trigger in-between abilities, it's ability has been triggered.  Even if she withdraws, you can still search for a fruit based on her entering, yes.

To the question of Josephus, that is considered NT for testament purposes.

Oh right it's that guy we're talking about...always forget about him.  His identifier specifies that he is OT, which overrides normal testament rules.
