Pentacost is natural.

Once you are (regenerated) born again, you have God’s spirit. It’s like being welcomed into a new family, “you have been adopted” Romans 8:14-17. But, there is a place where you can get in God when you are filled with the Spirit. I recall as a young person going to church and the minister telling me “say Jesus, Jesus, Jesus… But I must say I was there interceding for a loved one, not to be filled. That is why I firmly believe that new converts, or even baby Christians need follow-up. Our lives need to be observed by senior leaders who have experience, in Jesus. The Apostles were breathed upon by Jesus and received the Holy Ghost, but that was an different occurrence than at Antioch. Jesus told them to wait upon the promise… which he the Ruach Hakodesh, Paraclete, was mentioned in John 16: 7-15. He convicts, judges, and is a model or help in righteousness John 16:8-11. He will never leave an authentic Christian; but will give him or her a desire, and ability far beyond what they are capable of in the natural. The Holy Spirit gives gifts, but he ultimately gives life; in fact the bible says that no one who speaks by the “Spirit” can call Jesus accursed. So, if we have people cursing Jesus and say they’re Spirit filled are outright lying! Overall, he is a comforter and friend, whom will never forsake his own, so whatever we may experience, or whatever we want to accomplish for God, trust him, he dwells among and in Men. Be filled! Acts  1:8, Acts 2:4.
