    Who is receiving the Spirit?

    To receive the Holy Ghost means He comes to dwell inside individuals. It's part of the NT rebirth. This truth was established on the day Jesus shed forth the Holy Ghost: "And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were...

    Acts 2:38 expresses the truth that those who obey the command and get water baptized in the name of Jesus will in fact receive the Holy Ghost.
