Why Do You Need The

Holy Ghost?

1. Because Believing on the

Lord is not Enough

Acts 19:2 He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye

believed?

And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be

any Holy Ghost

And when Paul had laid his hands upon them,

the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake

with tongues, and prophesied.

2. Because You Need It To Be

Saved

Rom 8:9 Now if any man have not the

Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

John 3:5 Jesus answered… Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the

kingdom of God.

John 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must

be born again.

3. Because You’re powerless against

sin without it

Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come

upon you:

4. Because it’s God’s

Promise for You

Isa 28:11 For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this

people

Joel 2:28 And it shall come to pass

afterward, that I will pour out my spirit

upon all flesh;

Joel 2:29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour

out my spirit

5. Because it’s what the

resurrection of Jesus was all

about

Rom 8:11 But if the Spirit of him that

raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in

you,

he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your

mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in

you.

6. Because You Need A Comforter

John 14:18 I will not leave you

comfortless: I will come to you.

7. Because You Need A

Guide

John 16:13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will

guide you into all truth:

Acts 8:30 And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias,

and said, Understandest thou what thou readest?

v. 31 And he said, How can I,

except some man should guide me?

Jesus Confirms The Promise

Luke 24:49 I send the promise of my Father

upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem,

until ye be endued with power from on high.

The Promise Fulfilled

Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy

Ghost, and began to speak with other

tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

How Do You Receive the Holy Ghost?

Acts 2:38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the

remission of sins,

and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy

Ghost.

For the promise is unto you, and to your

children, and to all that are afar off, even as

many as the Lord our God shall call.

You Must Realize You Do Not Have All Jesus Wants You To Have

Unless You Are Baptized

With The Holy Ghost

Holy Ghost Baptism Is For

You!

Receive the Holy Ghost!
