Holy Ghost

Christ Talking to his apostles prior to his death on the cross.

John 16: 12-15

016:012 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.

016:013 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.

016:014 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

016:015 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

Christ talking to the apostles after he arose and before he went into heaven.

Acts 1: 6-9

001:006 When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?

001:007 And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.

001:008 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.

001:009 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.

This the time when the apostles received the Gift of the Holy Ghost that Jesus had promised them.

This gift was different than the one we receive after we are baptised.  This allowed them to KNOW Jesus' Words to say and to do miracles.

Acts 2:1-4

002:001 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

002:002 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

002:003 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

002:004 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
