“Don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have from God?”

The point is everyone has the Holy Spirit in them. I think the presence becomes stronger when you have accepted the Lord into your life or you treat your body and soul with respect and love.

I received the Holy Spirit when I was saved in 1980.

Answer 5

When the Holy Spirit chooses to come into your soul. You have to be spiritually ready to recieve him, and have to be able to understand what it means to live for God. For some that is in childhood, for others it is not until they are on their death bed. But it does not matter when it happens as long as it happens and it is recieved with an open heart.

Answer 7

When you feel no differences between you and others, when your heart is at that point of understanding, wanting to help others and being compassionate.... you will know when as the Holy spirit enters into your heart.

It's basically when your heart is at this level, when you do and feel the part as Jesus does.

The Apostle Paul clearly taught that we receive the Holy Spirit the moment we believe in Jesus Christ as our Savior. 1 Corinthians 12:13 declares, "For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body-whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free - and we were all given the one Spirit to drink."

Answer 11

I *received* it when I visited a haunted house. Luckily Bill Murray was there and he talked the Holy Spirit out of me. Then he opened up one of those traps from Ghostbusters to suck up the spirit. It never bothered me again. I lived happily ever after until my spleen exploded from eating too many ding dongs. Now I haunt the internet as a ghost.
