Have you received the Holy Ghost?

 The Bible says in Romans 8:9 that "if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of His." 

Jesus Himself taught Nicodemus in John 3 that a person must be BORN AGAIN of water (Baptism) and of Spirit (Holy Ghost) or you cannot enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.

Paul met certain Disciples of Jesus in Ephesus in Acts 19 Yet he asked them "have you received the Holy Ghost since you believed?" They were following Jesus as much as they knew how according to what John the Baptist had taught them. but Paul expounded the scriptures more fully to them. he explained that they needed to be baptized in the name of Jesus and after they were baptized he laid hands on them and they received the gift of the Holy Ghost and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.

Those disciples loved Jesus and wanted to serve Him but Paul led them to understand that Jesus had more for them to receive after they believed....The precious Gift of the Holy Ghost.

Peter responded when asked "what must we do?" He said repent, and be baptized everyone of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:38-39

How wonderful to know Jesus loves us that much ❤ Have you received the Holy Ghost since you believed?
