“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.” [Acts 2:1-4]

“Every person setting here's filled with something. (Then I'm going to close. I may have to after that.) You're filled with something. You can't set there without being full of something. You've got a life in you. That life governs you, and that life is governed by a spirit. Now, you might be full of the world, loving the world or the things of the world. God be merciful to you. You might be full of creeds from some church, some little prayers that you say, you think that it's going to--or pray to some dead person, or--or make some kind of a sign across you. God be merciful to you. And you may be full of religion; and that's worse yet. That's right. That's right. The Bible said in the last days they'd be very religious, having a form of godliness--having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof; from such turn away. If you're full of religion, you're miserable: just religion, that's all. If you're full of creeds, you don't know what you're talking about. If you're full of the world, you're blind. And then again, you may be full of the Holy ghost. Amen. I hope you are. And if you're not, I hope you get full. And if you're full of the Holy ghost, what you got? You've got power; you got love; you got peace. "My peace I'll give unto you, not as the world giveth I you." You got peace; you're sealed. You got a sign. Amen. You got rest. You got joy unspeakable and full of glory. You're anchored. Oh, my. That's what you are with the Holy ghost. You have... If you got full of the Holy ghost, you have passed from death unto Life, waiting for the general resurrection in the last day.” [59-1217 , What Was The Holy Ghost Given For, Jeffersonville IN]

“God wants to fill you. Why does He want to fill you? What does He want to fill you with? He wants to fill you with Himself, the Holy spirit, filled with the Holy ghost. Jesus said in Luke 24:49, that, "You shall receive power, after this the Holy ghost is come upon you. Then you'll be witnesses of Me in Jerusalem, Judaea, and Samaria, unto the utmost parts of the earth." When? When you have received your doctor's degree? When you have 'ceived your--received a Bachelor of Art? No. "But when you have received the Holy ghost, then you'll be witnesses of Me through this generation, the generations that are to come, unto the utmost parts of the earth."” [58-1221E The Unity Of One God In The One Church, Jeffersonville IN]

“And there had been a hundred and twenty temples that God had created, was ready for dedication, that had got all their unbelief beat out of them. And they gathered in the upper room, and waited for ten days, for dedicational service. Then when completely surrendered, God came down again in the Shekinah glory, and filled all the house where they were setting. What did God do? Like the ark dropping into its proper sockets for the message of that day, God dropped back into His proper channel; not into a denomination or into a building made with hands, but into the heart of men. He dropped in His place, for the last day, which said the prophet Joel. "It shall come to pass in the last days, I'll pour out My Shekinah upon all flesh. Your sons and daughters shall prophesy. Your young men shall dream dreams. The old men shall see visions." God came to His resting place, where He finds rest. Not in a building, but in the heart of His people, He finds rest.” [62-1111M Dedication, Elizabethtown KY]

“Paul said in Hebrews the 12th chapter, "Seeing that we're compassed about with such a great cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every sin, every weight, and the sin that does so easily beset us." Now, he said, "Well now, Daniel had Angel, and so forth." But said, "The New Testament does not support Angelic beings coming to individuals after the Holy spirit has come." And I said, "Oh, brother, I different with you." I said, "I believe that the Holy spirit is here. He's the One that fills us. And our life is not our own, but it's the Life of the Holy spirit in us that makes us Christians." I believe that, that ever fiber of a Christian's body is controlled by the Holy spirit. I believe that your eyes are. You can't help when you look to see an evil, but if you lust after it, you've already committed adultery. You turn your head. The Holy spirit makes you do that. Is that right? You might be tempted. Temptation is not sin. Heeding your temptation is sin. See? You can be tempted. Christ was tempted like we are, but never sinned. So the Holy spirit is God that helps us bear out the truth of God, and we're written epistles read of all man.” [53-1205 The.Resurrection,  West Palm Beach FL]

“Let me tell you something. When you're worshiping God, in the Spirit and in Truth, when it becomes a custom for you to do it, because you think you ought to do it; because you think, if you don't shout, or jump up-and-down, or dance with the music, your neighbor is going to think you're backslid; you are drinking from a stagnated stream. Right! Until It fills every fiber, until the Holy spirit Itself bubbling in you; I don't care whether the music is playing, whether they're playing Nearer, My God, To Thee, or whatever it is, the Holy spirit is still ringing the glory bells in your heart. That satisfies. That's God's satisfying Portion. Anything less that That, you're done. You might speak with tongue like men and Angels, you might give all your goods to feed the poor, you might prophesy, and you might have knowledge, understand all the mysteries and all these things, and you still become nothing (I Corinthians 13) until that satisfying Something that can only quench that thirst. "My soul thirsts for the living God, like the hart panting for the water brook. Unless I can find It, I'll perish." When you get to hungering for God like that, something is going to take place. The Holy spirit is to lead you to those great fountains of God. Yes, sir.” [65-0919 Thirst, Tucson AZ]

“So when you surrender your complete being, then the Holy Spirit just pours through you, in these virtues, then you're a living tabernacle. Then people look out and say, "That's a man full of virtue, knowledge (he believes the Word), temperance, patience, godliness, brotherly kindness, full of the love of the Holy ghost. See, there he is, walking around." What is it? A stature that unbelievers can look at and say, "There is a Christian. There is a man, or a woman, who knows what they're talking about. You never seen a kinder, sweeter, godlier person." You're sealed. A seal shows on both sides. Whether you're going or coming, you see the seal just the same. There you are. See? When a man or woman possess this, then the Capstone comes down and seals them into the Kingdom of God, which is the Holy ghost.” [62-1014M, The Stature Of A Perfect Man, Jeffersonville IN]

“What is it? You've got to get with the Word, get yourself killed out. I'm persuaded that many of us, friends, have received the Holy ghost, but we just receive enough Holy ghost in us to make us to a place where we don't want to lie, we don't want to steal, we don't want to do anything. But God wants to fill every fiber of His Church, He wants to fill your thinking and He wants to fill your mind. He wants to fill every bit of you, just make you completely, totally dead to yourself or to your thinking, just so surrendered in God till His Word's just living right through you. You don't know nothing else but God's Word, just stay right with His Word, It is Life. "My Words are Life," said Jesus. He's placed with them, teachers believing the Bible, prophets that say the Truth, that say, show the same prophecy that they've always did down through the age. What's He done? He's showing Himself alive among them, confirming His Word. His Word, the Kingdom of God is God's Word made power.” [62-0211, Oneness,  Jeffersonville IN]
