People get different gifts from the holy spirit, Some people do act like that when they are full of the holy spirit, but a lot react differently, it's God just showing us our individuality, no one responds to him exactly the same

because the Holy Spirit is gentle. He doesn't decide for us and He lets us decide for ourselves because we are given the freedom. He doesnt coerce people into acting a certain way when they dont want to. He is the Wonderful Counselor and when you want His counsel, He will give it to you. just allow yourself to be guided also. our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, and when we're full of sin He doesnt get comfortable living in us. We are the ones driving Him away.
So about ur question..you dont behave like the apostles on Pentecost maybe because you dont want to and you have not personally decided to be one. but its not too late because the world desperately needs people who are Spirit-Led. You can be one today.

There are many different gifts of the Spirit and many ways in which he manifests himself. There are different kinds of work, different kinds of service. Not every gift is suitable for everyone. Therefore some may receive miraculous powers and prophecy, but others have the less noticeable powers of wisdom, faith, or the gift of healing.

I think we do live as they did, after all we r all humans and they were just as easily influenced to sins as we r today.But havin the holy spirit within them as within those of us who have accepted it,(wouldn't want to leave home without it) made way for them to get through life's situation. and thats what i have to hold to everyday,Jesus said He would never leave us nor forsake us thats why He left us this gift...

Good Question!! Christ told His disciples that they would do greater works than Him. You can see them in action in the book of Acts and beyond. My pety theory is that we have allowed our faith to be diminished by the lack of time we spend before the throne of God. There are so many other distractions that consume our daily lives. If we are not close to Him, how can he work through us.
