The Promise of the Holy Ghost

"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. "Acts 2 vs 38 This was the promise made on the day of Pentecost.Here was peter who had been given the keys to unlock or close heaven and there were the people who wanted to be saved what was Peter going to say?But Peter said nothing for it was the Holy Ghost that spoke for how can a man who could not read qoute the scripture perfectly, " And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy. And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come.And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved. " So it had to be none other than Christ Himself. They had the fullness of Christ in a measure, the true baptism of the Holy Ghost. And that promise is to us too, the Bride of Jesus Christ. The only thing God asks is obedience to His Word, the only thing Noah had to do was go into the Ark. So also the Bride has to be obedient in the First phase and Second phase and the Third phase moving from Glory to Glory past the outert court past the inner veiland into the Shakinah Glory where it is Christ Himself dwelling with the believer. Just stay in that Presence with Almighty God, pray and meditate upon the Word of God
