Have You Received the Holy Ghost Since You Believed?
_____________________________________________________________________________________
Volume 13   No. 05                                                                                                              May 15, 2008
This message was first written by Samuel M. Smith in 2007
on the back of an envelope while waiting for taxicab calls.



Have You Received the Holy Ghost Since You Believed?
Acts 19:2

“Why did the Apostle Paul ask this of the Ephesian Believers? Was it because they were living pretty much like the world or because the Apostle realized the fact that there was something lacking in their experience with God?

Have you attended a Pentecostal church or an Apostolic church and been asked if you have received the Holy Ghost?
Maybe you have been seeking the Holy Ghost for weeks, months or even years, but never seem to be able to "receive it."

There is something you need to realize: You don't have to convince God that you need the baptism of his Holy Spirit! He  WANTS to fill you MORE thasn you want to be filled.

But tjhere are conditions which mnust be met. In order to feel the conviction of the Holy ghost, you must hear – or read – the Word of God and come to BELIEVE that you are a sinner and that Jesus is able to sAZve you from your sins. As a result of your belief, the Holy Spirit can prick your heart with conviction and as a result of that conviction of your sinfulness, the COMMAND which must be obeyed completely is that you must REPENT – thee act of slaying your old sin nature. Then, the body nust be buried in water by BaPTISMknow

Followers of Jesus Christ Ministries, Up Way Publications and Apostolic Internet Seminary are an Establishment of Religion as defined in the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America and therefore, since Congress shall make NO law regarding this Establishment of Religion, we are NOT tax exempt under the Internal Revenue Service code. We are not sustained by any denomination, special interest or parent organization. We accept no online or e-mail advertising. Our operations and mission are funded by -- and depend entirely upon -- the voluntary financial support of Real Bible Believing Christians like YOU!  All income is reported as taxable income to the Internal Revenue Service, although expenditures for literature, publications and shipping are always greater than the amount of donations received.

Are we Evangelical? Fundamental? Pentecostal? Apostolic? We claim all of these in the sense of maintaining total Biblical integrity of the things we teach and preach. For this reason, we use the term Bible Apostolic. We seek to be totally correct according to the Bible maintaining careful contextual and cultural understanding as well as known strengths and weaknesses of any given writer who, while inspired by the Holy Spirit, was still forced to communicate using the language, culture and known understandings of his day and place. So we are Bible in the sense that everything we say and do is intended to fully align with solid, indisbutably Bible teaching when understood as the writers and first hearers and readers of the Scriptures would have understood them. So we are Evangelical in efforts to reach the whole world with the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We are Fundamental in that like the Church of Christ motto, we speak where the Bible speaks and leave the rest alone. We are Pentecostal because we both see the promise as continuing as long as the Lord our God shall call mankind to Himself and we have experienced speaking in tongues and other manifestations of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. We are Apostolic in the sense that we are urgently trying to reestablish original New Testament Apostolic teaching, preaching and life.
