Bible Question: How do you get the Holy ghost? |
Bible Answer: We don't get the Holy Ghost. He comes to us at the moment of salvation and indwells us. What many call getting the Holy Ghost is the experience of the baptism of the Holy Ghost. It is known that this moment changes a person forever. Some claim it must be verified by speaking in tongues. I have found by my experience it was God's choice and not mine, I did not speak in tongues but ws filled with an awareness of His presence and total confidence in His grace and Lordship. I agree with Tozer when he says you must be sure this is what you want because your life will never be the same. For the sake of argument, "getting the Holy Ghost as an experience is immature, "getting the Holy Ghost" because of spiritual lonliness and desire for God reaps the reward. |
