Is the soul and the spirit the same thing?
No, spirit is when people die and they look after you. Soul is when it's inside you when your alive and your able to love.
When do you first receive the Holy Spirit?
The Holy Spirit comes into you when you first accept Jesus Christ as your only Lord and personal Savior.At the same exact moment you accept Jesus Christ as your Lord, Master, and Savior (Acts 10:44-48).A person receives the Holy Spirit when they become a believer in Jesus Christ, that is entrusting their life to the lordship and the saving sacrifice of Jesus; this is being born again. There is actually no such thing as a believer in Jesus Christ who does not have the Holy Spirit. If someone claims to be a believer, but does not have the Holy Spirit then they are not truly a believer. Either they have created another "Jesus" for themselves, who is different to the Jesus of the true Gospel, or they simply don't believe in Jesus in the biblical sense, which is entrusting their life to the lordship and the saving sacrifice of Jesus.The Holy Spirit is the free gift given by Jesus from God, his father, to all who put their trust in him.Although the Holy Spirit works on unbelievers, drawing them to Jesus, they do not actually receive him until they are truly repenting of (that is turning away from) their sinful ways and putting their faith in Jesus; trusting in his salvation and his lordship.When a person receives the Holy Spirit it will be evidence in their life as they will begin to naturally manifest the fruit of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control) and also begin to detest things that are detestable to God, things they had once take pleasure in.
What would have happened to the Church if the Holy Spirit had not come to the apostles on the Day of the Pentecost?
A:The Holy Spirit is reported in Acts 2:1-4 as coming to the apostles some forty days after the Resurrection of Jesus, on the Day of Pentecost, as tongues of flame. A little-known account in John's Gospel (John 20:22) also has the disciples receiving the Holy Spirit when Jesus breathed on them, on the same day as the Resurrection. Had the author of Acts not reported the disciples receiving the Holy Spirit on the Day of Pentecost, no doubt the parallel account in John's Gospel would have received greater prominence, with the Church proceeding much as it did.
What role did the Holy Spirit play in the writing of the Bible?
A:It was once thought that although the Bible was written by men, they wrote down the words of God, relayed to them by the Holy Spirit. A medieval artwork even shows a dove, representing the Holy Spirit, whispering into the ear of an apostle as he wrote. Guidance from the Holy Spirit is a position that only the most conservative Christians would sustain today. Inspiration by the Holy Spirit is simply incompatible with the contradictions and errors evident in the scriptures. Writing on one example of biblical contradiction, Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) acknowledges that position, while excluding it as a realistic possibility: "Inspiration does not guarantee historicity or reconcilability; otherwise God should have inspired the two evangelists to give us the same record."
