This is an example of when anyone takes every word in this scripture it will paint a very strong picture.
The balance in this post has always been the perfect will of God but Satan has brought much fear and unbelief into this subject and he will continue to do so, to those that let will him, because he does not want anyone getting the light on this truth.
It has been a few years now that the lord took me back to the beginning on this subject, so I could know and understand this topic clearly to help others that had not yet seen this truth.
No one can truly walk in truth if they will not believe the word of God, as it is so clearly taught in the word of "God" In the days ahead it will be impossible to live the life a christian is suppose to without the gift of The Holy Ghost.
To believe...... simply means to act as though it is true!!!
It has been taught in some churches that when you are born again you also have the Gift of the Holy Ghost, but in this post we are going to rightly divide this truth and point out the difference of the Spirit within and the Spirit Upon.
In this topic take Notice it involves all three of The Godhead to end up with the fullness of The Godhead.
Jesus is he that baptizes the believers with the Holy Ghost and fire. This truth is mentioned in every Gospel and is finally illustrated in the beginning of Acts. It is important to distinguish the word baptize here, and withe the Holy Ghost This is not the "NEW" Birth. Remember here also when Jesus was baptized the power or anointing came upon him, not within.
Important also to see these two scriptures:
Jn 7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
Jn 7:39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
Joh 14:17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
Notice in both these scriptures the word receive, and in verse fourteen it is mentioned that the world cannot receive him, the spirit of truth, many times people add this as the new birth but scripture is clear you receive the Holy Spirit, after you are born again.
English Standard Version Anglicised (ESVUK)
Lk 24:49 And behold, I am sending the promise of my Father upon you. But stay in the city until you are clothed with power from on high.�
Notice in this scripture the language of clothed with power.
When we Go forward to the book of Acts do not let let this be a tongues issue as many have done that is not what the teaching is here it is receiving the Gift of the Holy .
When we go forward to Acts remember the disciple had already received in:
Jn 20:22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:
Acts 1:4 And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
Acts1:5 For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.
The promis=e of the father is the baptizm of the Holy Ghost given by Jesus for the power to be a witness or the power to live the Christian life.
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.
In this context remember the words upon you, the Holy Ghost came upon them as it did with Jesus.
Acts 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
Acts 2:2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
Acts 2:3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
Acts 2:4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
They where baptized -covered, immersed as they received the Holy Spirit, and when they where all filled they all spoke.

Faith in the Lord is not as hard as you make it appear to be. We believe, because He is in US, and everything which was planned for our eternal family before time began, becomes reality.
It was planned to happen, we do not have to try anything,
The Father's Word does not return to Him void.
So belief in God, is not the same as trusting upon something. Men trust in the "safety" of buildings everyday, and they collapse upon them. What men "believe" as something, doesn't make it so..
You may believe that your daughter will come home at 4:PM, but that doesn't mean she will.
To believe in the Father, through Jesus Christ, is not about trying to conjure HIm up, but relying upon Him to kepe that which He has foreordained.

I do not make it hard at all to believe but i would have to question you and your motive, i know it is not hard but i also know what it means and my responsibility to it. It does not seem as though you are responding to the post. Man can not believe scripturally with the mind it is always with the heart.
