How can you tell if you have the Holy Spirit?

Those willing to comprehend Jesus' accurate words can be assured they have received the gift of holy spirit. Acts 1:8 "But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth." Accurately translated, receive (lambano) means to receive into outward evidence. Power (dunamis) is the internal potential power a person receives with the new birth. Jesus declared that his followers would be able to see the holy spirit's power in operation. Jesus highlighted the significance of the gift of holy spirit, calling it "the promise of the Father," as he gave instructions to the Apostles. Acts 1:3,4 "...that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me. For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence." Jesus referred to a believer's salvation, expressing it as the spiritually pivotal event of being baptized with holy spirit. When a person receives the promise of the Father, he is baptized with holy spirit and is clothed with power from on high. Luke 24:49 "And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high." As we allow Jesus' words from the books of Luke and Acts to settle in our hearts, we begin to appreciate the immensity of the new birth and the power we've received with the gift of holy spirit. Our desire to be bold witnesses for God continues to grow, as does our desire to see the holy spirit's power in operation.


What are the non Bible proofs that the Bible is God revelation holy book?

Answer 1There is not and can never be an objective proof that the Bible is (or is not) God's revelation. Certain people believe it is God's revelation, that is their opinion, their "faith" and they tend to be very protective of their viewpoint.Other people who believe in God do not hold the Bible in such esteem and believe that the stories help one build a relationship with God but they are not "revelation". This is perhaps the more balanced view in that it recognizes that the Bible was put together by the "Council of Nicaea" (see related link below) in AD 325 during which many books of the Bible were left out - "The Apocrypha" (see related link below).Still other people follow other faiths or do not believe in God at all and to them the Bible is just another religious book.Answer 2Qur'an; Muslims God holy book; states that the Bible is God holy book revealed by God to Jesus (peace be upon him).
