In the Old Testament, the Spirit of God came upon those he chose for it to. It was a temporary thing that happened only to a select few people, However, after Jesus died on the cross (and, in fact, because of it) those who choose to accept his offer forgiveness are indwelt with God's Holy Spirit. The greek word for this indwelling is baptizo (the word we get Baptize from), which means to be put into. The Bible says at the moment of our conversion, we are marked with the seal of the Holy Spirit, that it indwells us and we indwell it.

What does Bible stories tell us about God?

The Bible is the only book where God is speaking to us. The Bible is God telling us what we need to do with our lives. The Bible tells us that God is everything. He is omnipresent (everywhere), merciful, everlasting, caring, loving, all powerful, unchangeable, He is everything! It tells us that God came down in human form, lived in human life, and then died in pain for us. When Jesus came back to real life after 3 days, that meant that we could now speak to God on our own. Whatever questions you have about God, you can find the answer in the Bible. When you read the Bible, you're reading the word of God.

Christians believe the Bible is the most important book that man has. First it tells us of God who loves us. It tells us of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ and why He came to earth to reconcile us to God. The Bible gives us precise instructions on how to become a child of God and how to live after we have become a child of God. It also tells us of the fate we will face if we do not become a child of God. The Bible give us instruction in every facet of life if we are willing to read and understand it. Do not under estimate the Bible, the WORD of God.
