This is another thing that has caused a lot of Confussion in the Religious World.
What I do know is that He is a Person in the God Head. He give Power to the Apostels and to Whomever they placed their hands on. They could do Many Wonders and Signs to prove the Word of God and the Power of God. We have Record of them passing it on to others. But not OTHERS passing it on to anyone else. I Cor. 13: 8 tells us that Knowledge, Tongues, Prophecies will Cease/Stop, Not forgin langues, but the abilty to speak them with out Studying them. Knowledge willnot cease but the Ability to know things without Study. The Spirit works thru the Word, convicts, us of our sins. Not some Mistical thing that over comes us.

Does the scripture say that when one receives the word, he has received The Holy Ghost?
The terms used to discredit the working of The Holy Ghost, and the wording used, makes me think you are using second hand information and not things that you have personally been a witness to. Is that true?
What I do know is that He is a Person in the God Head. Where is the scripture that tell us thatHe is a person in the Godhead. Matt. 3: [16] And Jesus,(2) when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God(3) descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
[17] And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I(1) am well pleased.
He give Power to the Apostels and to Whomever they placed their hands on.They laid hands on somepeople that they might receive a gift or healing.
[ol][*]Acts 8: [17] Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost. [*][18] And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money, [*][19] Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.[/ol]

The terms used to discredit the working of The Holy Ghost, and the wording used, makes me think you are using second hand information You are correct God, Writters of the Bible and King James.I am not smart enough to make this up on my own. and not things that you have personally been a witness to. Is that true? Right again!
TF; Not trying topick on you here brother, but your replies have to be interpreted before they will arrive at your conclusion about these statements. Do you have any scripture that plainly says that He is a person in the Godhead? By taking an example, or expression of Gods dealings with man and trying to make that a discription or likeness of God's being doesn't work. Under his wings shall you trust. God is Turky, he has wings. He is goose, under his feather shall we be covered. God is a chicken, "as a hen shall he gather thee". We see that the Trinity consists of a turkey, a goose, and a chicken. We better stick with what is plainly said and not assume, or read something into it that isn't written. You prove clearly that God was in Christ, but not that God is a Trinity, neither that "He" is a person in a Trinity.
1st Cor 13:10 tells when these things WILL, (future tense) the word used I believe is "Shall", come to pass. It says "when", again future tense and not "has" as past tense. The perfect Christ had came. The perfect word of God had been given in the Apostles in Luke 24. Perfect is translated from "complete". The 7 feasts revealed Gods dealing with mankind from the beginning unto the end and the last 3 feasts revealing the events surrounding the 2nd coming of Christ are yet to come. When "that" completion transpires, these things will cease then as written.
What I do know is that He is a Person in the God Head. Where is the scripture that tell us thatHe is a person in the Godhead. Matt. 3: [16] And Jesus,(2) when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God(3) descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
[17] And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I(1) am well pleased.
I say He(HS) is One in the God Head.
You ask where is the Scripture?
I show you these Scriptures.
God(1) Speaks from Heaven,Jesus(2) is there, and he saw the Spirit (3) of God.
Now please tell me why thier is not 30[/color]31 in the God Head? Looks to me like their is!

I say But what does the scripture say?He(HS) is One in the God Head. The scripture doesn't say that Jesus is in the Godhead, It says that the Godhead is ALL in Jesus.
You ask where is the Scripture? This is the key, if Jesus is in the Godhead, where is the scripture?
I show you these Scriptures.
God(1) Speaks from Heaven,Jesus(2) is there, and he saw the Spirit (3) of God.
Now please tell me why thier is not 36 in the God Head? Looks to me like their is! Again it isn't how it looks to us, its how the bible says it is.
The Bible never says that God is a Trinity, it says God is One.
It never say The Eternal Son, it says the begotten Son.
It never says God is three persons, never.
It never says God The Son, never.
[color=#cc0000]The word Trinity was never used in connection with the Godhead while any of the Apostles were alive.
