The gospels say that Jesus received the Holy Spirit and was adopted by God as his son, at the time of his baptism (Mark 1:9-10): "And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan. And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:"
A countervailing view is in the later Christian tradition that Jesus was divine and pre-existing, and equal with the Holy Spirit as two persons of the Holy Trinity. This theological position would seem to suggest that Jesus had no need to receive the Holy Spirit.

What is the reason why Jesus was baptized by John?
Jesus fulfilled Scripture when he was water baptized. But He was not baptized for His sins- He was sinless.

He had the Holy spirit, but he was not baptized with the full power of the Spirit until John baptized him.
When did the Apostles receive the gift of the Holy Spirit?
AnswerThe apostles received the gift of the Holy Spirit on either of two occasions, depending on which source is used: In John's Gospel at 20:22, Jesus breathed on the ten apostles (with Thomas absent) and gave them the Holy Spirit in the upper room on the evening of his resurrection. Elaine Pagels says there is a thread of anti-Thomas sentiment in this Gospel, and this is demonstrated by the omission of Thomas.In Acts of the Apostles, the Holy Spirit descended on the apostles on the day of the Pentecost, more than forty days after the resurrection of Jesus.

After Jesus was crucified god sent the holy spirit to be with the disciples always in his place.Roman Catholic Answer:The day is called Pentecost.

Where is the Bible verse that shows the Holy Spirit as being everywhere?
There are several Bible verses that appear to demonstrate that the Holy Spirit is NOT everywhere. In Mark 1:10, Jesus saw the heavens open and the Spirit descend like a dove. Here the Holy Spirit was in heaven and came physically down to Jesus, in the likeness of a dove. In John 20:22, the risen Jesus breathed on the disciples, saying, "Receive ye the Holy Ghost." The Holy Ghost was not everywhere, but had to come from Jesus. In Acts 2:3-4, the Holy Ghost came like tongues of fire and settled on the disciples. Again, the disciples could not receive the Holy Spirit until it descended on them in the likeness of flames.
When does the holy spirit enter into a person?
The answer to this question is unknown since it is not written specifically in the Bible. The Bible mentions the Holy Spirit but not specifically when we receive it. In Psalm David asks God not to take the Holy Spirit away from him, which means David had The Holy Spirit and was afraid God would take it away. In the New Testament Jesus says to his disciples that He is leaving but will send a 'Helper', this is considered to be the Holy Spirit. Pentecost is about the Disciples receiving The Holy Spirit. So, although the Bible talks about The Holy Spirit, it does not tell us when we receive or why.
