" WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE FILL WITH THE SPIRIT: "

God's  ..

Do you ever wonder, who is the Holy ghost, what he came to do in the life of People. Does Satan have a fake for the holy spirit? And did Satan ever take advantage of this? Many people do not know that many so call spirit baptism, is demons possessions posing to be the baptism of the holy spirit. A friend of mine in New York, told me that he is now filled with the Holy spirit and the lord is giving him a lot of revelation, and I Should watch my self. About four months later his marriage broke up, he Married again and the same thing happen. Accordingly to act 1:8

Acts 1:8-AV But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Over a period of thirty years, I have been observing many people who claimed to be fill, it was not long before their life take a downward plunge. Before the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit was given only Particular people, for a specific purpose, and service. On the day of Pentecost the Holy Spirit was given to the Church, the body of Christ. It is important to know that what you saw in many churches is not necessarily the Holy Spirit. Satan is having a field day in many churches. One unsaved man speak about his two niece" Since Jb and Ma receive what they call the holy spirit they are as stupid as ever, they are outside speaking in tongues and rolling on the grass"Many Christians do not know the holy spirit, from Satanic spirit, they end up saying that they are hearing from the lord, but when they do what they were told to do, they end up with broken marriages, and backsliding.

SATAN'S SPIRIT FAKING TO BE THE HOLY SPIRIT:

Acts 16:16-AV And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying: Acts 16:17-AV The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which shew unto us the way of salvation. Acts 16:18-AV And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour. Acts 16:19-AV And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew [them] into the marketplace unto the rulers,)( This spirit has came into the Christians Church and take possession of many people, and they think it is the Holy Spirit.

SATAN HAS A FAKE FOR THE SPIRIT BAPTISM THAT HAPPEN AT PENTECOST:

Acts 2:1-AV And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. Acts 2:2-AV And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting. Acts 2:3-AV And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them. Acts 2:4-AV And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE FILL WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT?

Ephesians 5:18-AV And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

To be filled with the Holy Spirit mean to be in controls by him. Just like how wine influence a person actions.

DOES THE HOLY SPIRIT LITERALLY LIVE IN EACH CHRISTIANS?

No, the Holy Spirit fill the invisible universal church, which is the body of Christ here on earth. When the believer is converted the holy Spirit baptizes that believer into the body of Christ. This is the spirit Baptism. The in filling is the calling for service, when the Holy Spirit anoints the person and set them apart for service, as we have seen in the book of Acts. There is only one Holy Spirit, how could Millions of people be filled with one person? Million of people could be control by one person, but the one person cannot literally live in them. To be filled with the Holy spirit mean, he brought you into the Invisible body of Christ. " Call the Church" The Holy Spirit does not live in each believers like how a baby live in the body of the mother.

THERE IS A SPIRIT IN MAN:

Job 32:8-AV But [there is] a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding. Each person was born with a spirit in their body. This is called the human spirit, the Holy Spirit sanctified this human spirit, and use it. When the human spirit is working without the inspirations of The Holy Spirit, Christians call this "Self" Some call it "flesh"

1 Cor. 1 Cor. 2:11 a [For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him?]Question 8. Next, ? 1 Cor. 2:16. This defines the human spirit as that part of man which knows-the intellect, mind, and will. b [the spirit of man]

Three different spirits:

1. The spirit of man (1 Cor. 2:11)= one for every man.

2. The Spirit of God (1 Cor. 2:11) Only one such call the "Holy Spirit" However God has other spirits call angels, which can be divided into many category.

3. The spirit of the world (1 Cor. 2:12) This is demonic spirits. There are so many that one man the bible was poses by legion.

THE PERSON MUST CONTROL THIS HUMAN SPIRIT:

Proverbs 25:28-AV He that [hath] no rule over his own spirit [is like] a city [that is] broken down, [and] without walls.

A PROPHET MUST NOT FOLLOW HIS OWN SPIRT:

Ezekiel 13:3-AV Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!

THIS HUMAN SPIRIT IS SUBJECT TO THE PROPHETS:

1Corinthians 14:32-AV And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. )( Look at the "S" The holy spirit is not spoken of in plural.

The Holy Spirit dwells in man only in the sense of union with, but never by bodily entrance into the human body to live there like an Incarnation. If a second spirit is in your body like a baby living in his/her mother belly. Then, one of those spirits is a demon. If you feel a spirit literally trying to go into your body, you must fight it, it is not the Holy Spirit.

TERMS USE IN THE BIBLE:

God's  ..

"Fill" In you" For example, look at st John 14:17. The word "With you" here is plural." Shall be in you" is also plural. "Ye" is also plural. "Come upon you" is also plural, Christ is talking to many people not just one person. It is the same thing with "fill" Fill is a Terminology. A person who is fill with wine, if you cut their body you would not see wine running out of it. It means to be control by it. Fill with the Holy Spirit mean to be control by him. You are control by him when you yield to him. You yield to him when you are living accordingly to his will, and the written word of God. If you are living in malice, covetousness, filled up with hard feelings, backbiting, digging pits for others and doing things by favertism, then you are not yielding to the spirit.

HOW DOES A PERSON BEHAVE WHEN THEY ARE CONTROL BY THE SPIRIT?

They do not condescends to using spite, malicious acts, hate, defaming, Prejudice, and lies. If they do, they do it because they are resisting the Holy Spirit in their own lives. Are maybe it is not the Holy Spirit they got.

THE WORK OF THE HOLY SPIRIT:

God's  ..

John 16:13-AV Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

Isaiah 30:21-AV And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This [is] the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.

HOW DOES A PERSON BEHAVE WHEN THEY GOT FILL?

God's  ..

When the Holy Spirit came upon a believer, the Holy Spirit begin to Break the chains, are bad habits of the person. The person feels free, feel delivered, this bring peace into the person heart some people cannot control it, they might fall over. But not all falling over is from God. And not because a person do not fall over that do not mean that a work was not done in their life. This peace has a way to spill over to others. Hateful and spiteful people who claimed to be filled with the spirit, does not have the genuine Holy Spirit.

THE HOLY SPIRIT OPENETH YOUR EYES TO THE RESULT OF YOUR ACTIONS"

Acts 9:18-AV And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.

Philippians 4:7-AV And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

John 14:17-AV [Even] the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

THE HOLY SPIRIT DO NOT KEEP DOWN PEOPLE:

God's  ..

2 Corinthians 3:17-AV Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord [is], there [is] liberty.

The Holy spirit do not blame young Christians for wanting to preach, and remain active in the service of God. I have seen many cases where ministers even blame us and put us down for wanting to preach.

1John 4:1-AV Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 1 John 4:2-AV Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: Satan learns a new trick since this verse was written. If it will fool you, he will do it, if it make you happy, he will say it.1 John 4:3-AV And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that [spirit] of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

THE TRUE HOLY SPIRIT:

1Corinthians 2:12-AV Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

1John 4:6-AV We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.

EVERY SPIRIT FILL CHRISTIANS HAVE THESE QUALITIES OR FRUITS IN THEM:

Galatians 5:22-AV But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Galatians 5:23-AV Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. Ephesians 5:9-AV (For the fruit of the Spirit [is] in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)

THE INVISIBLE UNIVERSAL BODY OF BELIEVERS:

1Corinthians 3:1-AV And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, [even] as unto babes in Christ.

DIFFERENT GROUPS OF PEOPLE IN THE CHURCH:

We have the carnal believers, which mean beginner, we have the spiritual believers, which is the mature BELIEVERS. Then, we also have the false believers. You and I do not know who is genuine from the false, we have to accept every body upon the confession of their mouth. The Holy Spirit filled the invisible Universal body of Christ. Therefore, when the lord save you and in, he brought you into a body that is spirit filled, and you and I became a part of that body. Whatsoever goes through the nervous system of that body also go through you and is in you personally.

1Corinthians 3:2-AV I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able [to bear it], neither yet now are ye able. 1Corinthians 3:3-AV For ye are yet carnal: for whereas [there is] among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?

Galatians 2:4-AV And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:

GENUINE MINISTERS AND FALSE ONES:

2Corinthians 11:13-AV For such [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. 2Corinthians 11:14-AV And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 2Corinthians 11:15-AV Therefore [it is] no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

The following notes are taking from/ DAKE'S ANNOTATED BIBLE.

Acts Acts 2:4 a [filled with the Holy Ghost] They were both filled and baptized with the spirit. Old Testament Spiritual Experiences Old Testament saints had many experiences and blessings, as follows. They were filled (Exodus 28:3; Exodus 31:3; Exodus 35:31; Deut. 34:9; Micah 3:8) and had the Spirit in them (Genesis 41:38; Numbers 27:18; Daniel 4:8-9,18; Daniel 5:11-14; Daniel 6:3); within them (Psalm 51:10-11; Isaiah 63:10-14; Ezekiel 11:19); into them (Ezekiel 2:2; Ezekiel 3:24; Acts 3:21); and upon them (Numbers 11:17-29; Judges 3:10; Judges 6:34; Judges 11:29; Judges 14:6,19; Judges 15:14). He moved many (Judges 13:25; Acts 3:21; 2 Peter 1:21), but none were baptized in the Spirit. John the Baptist and others were filled with the Spirit, but not baptized (Luke 1:15-17,41,67; Luke 2:25-38). Mary was filled about 35 years before she was baptized with the Spirit at Pentecost (Luke 1:45-56; Acts 1:13-15; Acts 2:1-4). Jesus was filled about 30 years before He was baptized with the Spirit (Isaiah 50:4-5; Luke 2:40-52; Matthew 3:16-17). The disciples were filled and had the Spirit in them 3 years before they were baptized with the Spirit (Matthew 10:1-8,20; Acts 1:4-8; Acts 2:1-4,33). Old Testament saints had gifts and fruit of the Spirit (1 Kings 3:12; 1 Kings 17:1-2 Kings 13:25; Acts 3:21; Hebrews 11); different measures of the Spirit (Numbers 11:16-25; 2 Kings 2:9; Luke 1:17) but not the Spirit baptism or the Spirit "without measure" (John 3:34; John 7:37-39). The disciples had gifts and great power years before the Spirit baptism (Matthew 10:1-8,16-20; Mark 6:7-13; Luke 10), but were told to get the Spirit baptism before starting their ministry (Luke 24:49; John 7:37-39; John 14:12; Acts 1:4-8). Old Testament saints and disciples of Christ had salvation (Psalm 51:12); redemption (Psalm 31:5); grace (Psalm 84:11); physical healing (Exodus 15:26); names written in heaven (Exodus 32:32-33; Luke 10:20); the new birth (Galatians 4:28-30); conversion (Psalm 19:7); righteousness (Romans 4); the gospel (Galatians 3:6-14; Hebrews 4:2); justification (Romans 4); holiness; (Acts 3:21; 2 Peter 1:21); pure hearts (Psalm 24:4); sanctification (Exodus 29:42-44; Exodus 31:13; Ezekiel 20:2; John 15:3); and many other spiritual blessings before Pentecost (John 7:37-39; Acts 2:33). Therefore, one should not take any of these blessings as evidence of a Spirit baptism. From all this we gather that the Spirit baptism is the fullness of God in the lives of believers, not the Spirit by measure as in Old Testament times (John 3:34; John 7:37-39; John 24:49; Acts 10:38; Isaiah 61:1; Romans 15:29; Ephes. 3:19). The difference between a filling and a baptism or the Spirit by measure and without measure may be illustrated by a glass and a pitcher of water. To the extent the water is poured into the glass it is filled, but not baptized. By burying the glass in the fullness of the water it is both filled and baptized. Taking the glass out of the fullness of the water it is no longer baptized. So it is with believers. To the extent one is filled with the Spirit he has that measure of power and can do things according to the degree of anointing he has. If he is merely filled and has the Spirit by measure he is limited in spiritual power. If he has the Spirit in all fullness there is no limitation. He can do the works of Christ and the apostles (Matthew 17:20; Matthew 21:22; Mark 9:23; Mark 11:22-24; Mark 16:17-18; John 14:12; Acts 2:43; Acts 3:6; Acts 5:16; Romans 15:18-19,29). A filling always comes with a baptism, but a baptism does not always come with a filling. At Pentecost they were both filled and baptized (Acts 1:4-8; Acts 2:4), and many fillings kept coming to them to replenish the Spirit and power they had received (Acts 4:8,31; Acts 13:52). One must continue to live and walk in the Spirit and be filled with all the fullness of God in order to maintain that baptismal fullness (Ephes. 3:16-20; Ephes. 5:18; Galatians 5:16-26). b [speak with other tongues] This was predicted by Isaiah (Isaiah 28:9-12) and by Christ (Mark 16:17; John 15:26; John 16:13) and was fulfilled in Acts 2:4-13; Acts 10:44-48; Acts 19:1-7; 1 Cor. 12-14. c [as the Spirit gave them utterance] This was similar to the Spirit speaking through the prophets in their own language (Acts 3:21; Hebrews 1:1-2), only here it was with different languages (Acts 2:4,6,11). Though speaking in tongues is done through immediate inspiration by new recipients when one has thus received the gift, it then becomes a part of his mental makeup so that he can, if he desires to do so, exercise it without direct inspiration, even in a backslidden condition (1 Cor. 13:1-3). This is why the exercise of vocal gifts of prophecy, tongues, and interpretation of tongues is commanded to be regulated and even judged as to whether it be under direct inspiration or whether the person is exercising a gift of himself (1 Cor. 14:29-33).
