Easton's Bible Dictionary has these definitions for
"spirit" and "Holy Ghost":
Spirit - (Heb. ruah; Gr. pneuma), properly wind or breath. In 2 Thess. 2:8 it means "breath," and in Eccl. 8:8 the vital principle in man. It also denotes the rational, immortal soul by which man is distinguished (Acts 7:59; 1 Cor. 5:5; 6:20; 7:34), and the soul in its separate state (Heb. 12:23), and hence also an apparition (Job 4:15; Luke 24:37, 39), an angel (Heb. 1:14), and a demon (Luke 4:36; 10:20). This word is used also metaphorically as denoting a tendency (Zech. 12:10; Luke 13:11).But, the main purpose of this web page is to explore the meanings and events surrounding a person who was filled with, or full of the Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit, etc. Using the KJV, as we usually do, we find that those individuals who were filled with the Holy Ghost were primarily empowered to speak the Word of God, prophesy, preach, declare, etc., not just to speak in an unknown tongue. Please read on for many examples. What immediately follows are many examples of how the Holy Ghost gave power to speak, all directly from the King James Version. (At the very bottom of the page are complete KJV word searches on specific words, "spirit" and "ghost".) Some interesting examples of individuals filled with the Holy Ghost: (Luke 1:13 KJV) But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for thy prayer is heard; and thy wife Elisabeth shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John. (Luke 1:14 KJV) And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth. (Luke 1:15 KJV) For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb. (Luke 1:16 KJV) And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God. (Luke 1:17 KJV) And he shall go before him in the spirit and power

(Luke 1:41 KJV) And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost: (Luke 1:42 KJV) And she spake out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb. (Luke 1:43 KJV) And whence is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? (Luke 1:44 KJV) For, lo, as soon as the voice of thy salutation sounded in mine ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.

(Luke 1:46 KJV) And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, (Luke 1:47 KJV) And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour. (Luke 1:48 KJV) For he hath regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.

(Luke 1:51 KJV) He hath showed strength with his arm; he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. (Luke 1:52 KJV) He hath put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree. (Luke 1:53 KJV) He hath filled the hungry with good things; and
the rich he hath sent empty away.
(Mat 3:1 KJV) In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea, (Mat 3:2 KJV) And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. (Mat 3:3 KJV) For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet

(Luke 1:67 KJV) And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying, (Luke 1:68 KJV) Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people, (Luke 1:69 KJV) And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David; (Luke 1:70 KJV) As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began: (Luke 1:71 KJV) That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us; (Luke 1:72 KJV) To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant; (Luke 1:73 KJV) The oath which he sware to our father Abraham, (Luke 1:74 KJV) That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear, (Luke 1:75 KJV) In holiness and righteousness before him, all
the days of our life.
(John 1:1 KJV) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (John 1:2 KJV) The same was in the beginning with God. (John 1:3 KJV) All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. (John 1:4 KJV) In him was life; and the life was the light of men. (John 1:5 KJV) And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not. (John 1:6 KJV) There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. (John 1:7 KJV) The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe. (John 1:8 KJV) He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. (John 1:9 KJV) That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. (John 1:10 KJV) He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. (John 1:11 KJV) He came unto his own, and his own received him not. (John 1:12 KJV) But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: (John 1:13 KJV) Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. (John 1:14 KJV) And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. (John 1:15 KJV) John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me. (John 1:16 KJV) And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. (John 1:17 KJV) For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. (John 1:18 KJV) No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. (John 1:19 KJV) And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou? (John 1:20 KJV) And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ. (John 1:21 KJV) And they asked him, What then? Art thou Elias? And he saith, I am not. Art thou that prophet? And he answered, No. (John 1:22 KJV) Then said they unto him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What sayest thou of thyself? (John 1:23 KJV) He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias. (John 1:24 KJV) And they which were sent were of the Pharisees. (John 1:25 KJV) And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be not that Christ, nor Elias, neither that prophet? (John 1:26 KJV) John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not; (John 1:27 KJV) He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose. (John 1:28 KJV) These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing. (John 1:29 KJV) The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. (John 1:30 KJV) This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me. (John 1:31 KJV) And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water. (John 1:32 KJV) And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him. (John 1:33 KJV) And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost. (John 1:34 KJV) And I saw, and bare record that this is the Son of God. (John 1:35 KJV) Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples; (John 1:36 KJV) And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he saith, Behold the Lamb of God! (John 1:37 KJV) And the two disciples heard him speak, and they
followed Jesus.
(Luke 4:1 KJV) And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, (Luke 4:2 KJV) Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered. (Luke 4:3 KJV) And the devil said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, command this stone that it be made bread. (Luke 4:4 KJV) And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God. (Luke 4:5 KJV) And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, showed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. (Luke 4:6 KJV) And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. (Luke 4:7 KJV) If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine. (Luke 4:8 KJV) And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. (Luke 4:9 KJV) And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence: (Luke 4:10 KJV) For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee: (Luke 4:11 KJV) And in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. (Luke 4:12 KJV) And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. (Luke 4:13 KJV) And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he departed from him for a season. (Luke 4:14 KJV) And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about. (Luke 4:15 KJV) And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all. (Luke 4:16 KJV) And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read. (Luke 4:17 KJV) And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, (Luke 4:18 KJV) The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, (Luke 4:19 KJV) To preach the acceptable year of the Lord. (Luke 4:20 KJV) And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him. (Luke 4:21 KJV) And he began to say unto them, This day is
this scripture fulfilled in your ears.
(Acts 2:4 KJV) And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. (Acts 2:5 KJV) And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven. (Acts 2:6 KJV) Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language. (Acts 2:7 KJV) And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans? (Acts 2:8 KJV) And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born? (Acts 2:9 KJV) Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia, (Acts 2:10 KJV) Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes, (Acts 2:11 KJV) Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God. (Acts 2:12 KJV) And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this? (Acts 2:13 KJV) Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine. (Acts 2:14 KJV) But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words: (Acts 2:15 KJV) For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day. (Acts 2:16 KJV) But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel; (Acts 2:17 KJV) And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: (Acts 2:18 KJV) And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy: (Acts 2:19 KJV) And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke: (Acts 2:20 KJV) The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before that great and notable day of the Lord come: (Acts 2:21 KJV) And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall
call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
(Acts 4:8 KJV) Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel, (Acts 4:9 KJV) If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the impotent man, by what means he is made whole; (Acts 4:10 KJV) Be it known unto you all, and to all the people
of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified,
whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before
you whole.
(Acts 4:31 KJV) And when they had prayed, the place was shaken
where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the
Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness.
(Acts 9:17 KJV) And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost. (Acts 9:18 KJV) And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized. (Acts 9:19 KJV) And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus. (Acts 9:20 KJV) And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God. (Acts 9:21 KJV) But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests? (Acts 9:22 KJV) But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded
the Jews which dwelt at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ.
(Acts 13:9 KJV) Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him, (Acts 13:10 KJV) And said, O full of all subtlety and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord? (Acts 13:11 KJV) And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand. (Acts 13:12 KJV) Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed,
being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.
(Acts 6:3 KJV) Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business. (Acts 6:4 KJV) But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.

(Acts 6:7 KJV) And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith. (Acts 6:8 KJV) And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people. (Acts 6:9 KJV) Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called the synagogue of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and of Asia, disputing with Stephen. (Acts 6:10 KJV) And they were not able to resist the wisdom
and the spirit by which he spake.

voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this,
he fell asleep.

(Acts 11:24 KJV) For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much people was added unto the Lord.

(Job 13:19 KJV) Who is he that will plead with me? for now, if I hold my tongue, I shall give up the ghost. (Job 14:10 KJV) But man dieth, and wasteth away: yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where is he? (Jer 15:9 KJV) She that hath borne seven languisheth: she hath given up the ghost; her sun is gone down while it was yet day: she hath been ashamed and confounded: and the residue of them will I deliver to the sword before their enemies, saith the LORD.

(Mat 1:18 KJV) Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost. (Mat 1:20 KJV) But while he thought on these things, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared unto him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.

(Acts 1:8 KJV) 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. (Acts 1:16 KJV) Men and brethren, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spake before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus. (Acts 2:4 KJV) And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance. (Acts 2:33 KJV) Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.

(Acts 4:8 KJV) Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel, (Acts 4:31 KJV) And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness. (Acts 5:3 KJV) But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land? (Acts 5:5 KJV) And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things. (Acts 5:10 KJV) Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband. (Acts 5:32 KJV) And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him. (Acts 6:3 KJV) Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business. (Acts 6:5 KJV) And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch: (Acts 7:51 KJV) Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye. (Acts 7:55 KJV) But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God, (Acts 8:15 KJV) Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: (Acts 8:17 KJV) Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.

(Acts 20:22 KJV) And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: (Acts 21:4 KJV) And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days: who said to Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem. (Acts 23:8 KJV) For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit: but the Pharisees confess both. (Acts 23:9 KJV) And there arose a great cry: and the scribes that were of the Pharisees' part arose, and strove, saying, We find no evil in this man: but if a spirit or an angel hath spoken to him, let us not fight against God. (Rom 1:4 KJV) And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: (Rom 1:9 KJV) For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; (Rom 2:29 KJV) But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God. (Rom 7:6 KJV) But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter. (Rom 8:1 KJV) There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. (Rom 8:2 KJV) For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. (Rom 8:4 KJV) That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. (Rom 8:5 KJV) For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. (Rom 8:9 KJV) But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. (Rom 8:10 KJV) And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. (Rom 8:11 KJV) But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. (Rom 8:13 KJV) For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. (Rom 8:14 KJV) For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. (Rom 8:15 KJV) For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. (Rom 8:16 KJV) The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: (Rom 8:23 KJV) And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. (Rom 8:26 KJV) Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. (Rom 8:27 KJV) And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. (Rom 11:8 KJV) (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day. (Rom 12:11 KJV) Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; (Rom 15:19 KJV) Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ. (Rom 15:30 KJV) Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to God for me; (1 Cor 2:4 KJV) And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: (1 Cor 2:10 KJV) But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. (1 Cor 2:11 KJV) For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. (1 Cor 2:12 KJV) Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. (1 Cor 2:14 KJV) But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. (1 Cor 3:16 KJV) Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? (1 Cor 4:21 KJV) What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness? (1 Cor 5:3 KJV) For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed, (1 Cor 5:4 KJV) In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, (1 Cor 5:5 KJV) To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. (1 Cor 6:11 KJV) And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. (1 Cor 6:17 KJV) But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit. (1 Cor 6:20 KJV) For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. (1 Cor 7:34 KJV) There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married careth for the things of the world, how she may please her husband. (1 Cor 7:40 KJV) But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God. (1 Cor 12:3 KJV) Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost. (1 Cor 12:4 KJV) Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. (1 Cor 12:7 KJV) But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal. (1 Cor 12:8 KJV) For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit; (1 Cor 12:9 KJV) To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit; (1 Cor 12:11 KJV) But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will. (1 Cor 12:13 KJV) For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit. (1 Cor 14:2 KJV) For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries. (1 Cor 14:14 KJV) For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. (1 Cor 14:15 KJV) What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also. (1 Cor 14:16 KJV) Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest? (1 Cor 15:45 KJV) And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a quickening spirit. (1 Cor 16:18 KJV) For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such. (2 Cor 1:22 KJV) Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts. (2 Cor 2:13 KJV) I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from thence into Macedonia. (2 Cor 3:3 KJV) Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshly tables of the heart. (2 Cor 3:6 KJV) Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life. (2 Cor 3:8 KJV) How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious? (2 Cor 3:17 KJV) Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. (2 Cor 3:18 KJV) But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord. (2 Cor 4:13 KJV) We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak; (2 Cor 5:5 KJV) Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. (2 Cor 7:1 KJV) Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God. (2 Cor 7:13 KJV) Therefore we were comforted in your comfort: yea, and exceedingly the more joyed we for the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all. (2 Cor 11:4 KJV) For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him. (2 Cor 12:18 KJV) I desired Titus, and with him I sent a brother. Did Titus make a gain of you? walked we not in the same spirit? walked we not in the same steps? (Gal 3:2 KJV) This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? (Gal 3:3 KJV) Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh? (Gal 3:5 KJV) He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? (Gal 3:14 KJV) That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. (Gal 4:6 KJV) And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father. (Gal 4:29 KJV) But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now. (Gal 5:5 KJV) For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith. (Gal 5:16 KJV) This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. (Gal 5:17 KJV) For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would. (Gal 5:18 KJV) But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law. (Gal 5:22 KJV) But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, (Gal 5:25 KJV) If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. (Gal 6:1 KJV) Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. (Gal 6:8 KJV) For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting. (Gal 6:18 KJV) Brethren, the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. (Eph 1:13 KJV) In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, (Eph 1:17 KJV) That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: (Eph 2:2 KJV) Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: (Eph 2:18 KJV) For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. (Eph 2:22 KJV) In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit. (Eph 3:5 KJV) Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit; (Eph 3:16 KJV) That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; (Eph 4:3 KJV) Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. (Eph 4:4 KJV) There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; (Eph 4:23 KJV) And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; (Eph 4:30 KJV) And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. (Eph 5:9 KJV) (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;) (Eph 5:18 KJV) And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; (Eph 6:17 KJV) And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: (Eph 6:18 KJV) Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints; (Phil 1:19 KJV) For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, (Phil 1:27 KJV) Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel; (Phil 2:1 KJV) If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, (Phil 3:3 KJV) For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh. (Col 1:8 KJV) Who also declared unto us your love in the Spirit. (Col 2:5 KJV) For though I be absent in the flesh, yet am I with you in the spirit, joying and beholding your order, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ. (1 Th 4:8 KJV) He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit. (1 Th 5:19 KJV) Quench not the Spirit. (1 Th 5:23 KJV) And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. (2 Th 2:2 KJV) That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. (2 Th 2:8 KJV) And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: (2 Th 2:13 KJV) But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: (1 Tim 3:16 KJV) And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. (1 Tim 4:1 KJV) Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; (1 Tim 4:12 KJV) Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. (2 Tim 1:7 KJV) For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. (2 Tim 4:22 KJV) The Lord Jesus Christ be with thy spirit. Grace be with you. Amen. (Phile 1:25 KJV) The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. Amen. (Heb 4:12 KJV) For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. (Heb 9:14 KJV) How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? (Heb 10:29 KJV) Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace? (James 2:26 KJV) For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. (James 4:5 KJV) Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy? (1 Pet 1:2 KJV) Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied. (1 Pet 1:11 KJV) Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow. (1 Pet 1:22 KJV) Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently: (1 Pet 3:4 KJV) But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. (1 Pet 3:18 KJV) For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit: (1 Pet 4:6 KJV) For for this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the spirit. (1 Pet 4:14 KJV) If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified. (1 John 3:24 KJV) And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us. (1 John 4:1 KJV) Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. (1 John 4:2 KJV) Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: (1 John 4:3 KJV) And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. (1 John 4:6 KJV) We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. (1 John 4:13 KJV) Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit. (1 John 5:6 KJV) This is he that came by water and blood, even Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth. (1 John 5:8 KJV) And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one. (Jude 1:19 KJV) These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit. (Rev 1:10 KJV) I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, (Rev 2:7 KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. (Rev 2:11 KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death. (Rev 2:17 KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it. (Rev 2:29 KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. (Rev 3:6 KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. (Rev 3:13 KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. (Rev 3:22 KJV) He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. (Rev 4:2 KJV) And immediately I was in the spirit; and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne. (Rev 11:11 KJV) And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. (Rev 14:13 KJV) And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them. (Rev 17:3 KJV) So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. (Rev 18:2 KJV) And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. (Rev 19:10 KJV) And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. (Rev 21:10 KJV) And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, (Rev 22:17 KJV) And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let
him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever
will, let him take the water of life freely.
My conclusion from this study of the KJV is that the the individual who is filled with the Holy Ghost is filled for a time and a purpose. And I have found that all of those who were filled with the Holy Ghost spoke something. But, the Holy Spirit also empowers the individual with some certain gift or ministry, which may or may not be a speaking gift. However, we, as Christians are to maintain, or continue to stay full of the Holy Ghost, to pray and sing in the Spirit, etc. This most wonderful thing of praying or singing in the Spirit, (often in an unknown tongue) brings our spirit and the Holy Spirit into a most wonderful communion, and edifies our soul. And in this case, the purpose of being filled and speaking aloud in an unknown tongue is mainly self edification, by what I like to think of as a secured link, that's a direct incorrupible link to God. Here is where the doctrinal disputes begin, even within the Body. Many Pentecostal churches believe that the initial time of a person being filled with the Holy Ghost, with speaking in tongues is the one time filling of an individual, and that the individual is then Spirit-filled for life. I do not, because the Bible leads me in to see that we must continually keep ourselves filled with the Spirit. That and the fact that I have seen a good many "Spirit-filled Christians" fall away, sadly enough, leads me to believe that we are responsible to remain filled, by our own choice. But, plainly enough, the Bible simply does not say that if we are once filled, we are always filled. (Eph 5:17 KJV) Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is. (Eph 5:18 KJV) And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; (Eph 5:19 KJV) Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; (Eph 5:20 KJV) Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ; (Eph 5:21 KJV) Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God. Other Pentecostal churches believe that the speaking in tongues is the one and only sure fire evidence of a person being filled with the Holy Ghost. Still others say that if a person does not speak in tongues then they are not even saved and therefore not going to Heaven. Let me say that none of this can be confirmed or proven by Scripture, except by a far stretch of the imagination combined with selective Scripture manipulation. Other non-Pentecostal Churches claim that speaking in tongues is the language of the devil, based very liberally upon one Scripture verse taken out of context: (1 Cor 13:8 KJV) Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. Now, here is the same verse above, in context: (1 Cor 12:27 KJV) Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular. (1 Cor 12:28 KJV) And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues. (1 Cor 12:29 KJV) Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles? (1 Cor 12:30 KJV) Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret? (1 Cor 12:31 KJV) But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet show I unto you a more excellent way. (1 Cor 13:1 KJV) Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. (1 Cor 13:2 KJV) And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. (1 Cor 13:3 KJV) And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. (1 Cor 13:4 KJV) Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, (1 Cor 13:5 KJV) Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; (1 Cor 13:6 KJV) Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; (1 Cor 13:7 KJV) Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. (1 Cor 13:8 KJV) Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. (1 Cor 13:9 KJV) For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. (1 Cor 13:10 KJV) But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. (1 Cor 13:11 KJV) When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. (1 Cor 13:12 KJV) For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. (1 Cor 13:13 KJV) And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity. (1 Cor 14:1 KJV) Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. (1 Cor 14:2 KJV) For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries. (1 Cor 14:3 KJV) But he that prophesieth speaketh unto men to edification, and exhortation, and comfort. (1 Cor 14:4 KJV) He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church. (1 Cor 14:5 KJV) I would that ye all spake with tongues, but rather that ye prophesied: for greater is he that prophesieth than he that speaketh with tongues, except he interpret, that the church may receive edifying. (1 Cor 14:6 KJV) Now, brethren, if I come unto you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, except I shall speak to you either by revelation, or by knowledge, or by prophesying, or by doctrine? (1 Cor 14:7 KJV) And even things without life giving sound, whether pipe or harp, except they give a distinction in the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped? (1 Cor 14:8 KJV) For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the battle? (1 Cor 14:9 KJV) So likewise ye, except ye utter by the tongue words easy to be understood, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye shall speak into the air. (1 Cor 14:10 KJV) There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification. (1 Cor 14:11 KJV) Therefore if I know not the meaning of the voice, I shall be unto him that speaketh a barbarian, and he that speaketh shall be a barbarian unto me. (1 Cor 14:12 KJV) Even so ye, forasmuch as ye are zealous of spiritual gifts, seek that ye may excel to the edifying of the church. (1 Cor 14:13 KJV) Wherefore let him that speaketh in an unknown tongue pray that he may interpret. (1 Cor 14:14 KJV) For if I pray in an unknown tongue, my spirit prayeth, but my understanding is unfruitful. (1 Cor 14:15 KJV) What is it then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also. (1 Cor 14:16 KJV) Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest? (1 Cor 14:17 KJV) For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified. (1 Cor 14:18 KJV) I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all: (1 Cor 14:19 KJV) Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue. (1 Cor 14:20 KJV) Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men. (1 Cor 14:21 KJV) In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord. (1 Cor 14:22 KJV) Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe. (1 Cor 14:23 KJV) If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad? (1 Cor 14:24 KJV) But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all: (1 Cor 14:25 KJV) And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth. (1 Cor 14:26 KJV) How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying. (1 Cor 14:27 KJV) If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret. (1 Cor 14:28 KJV) But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God. (1 Cor 14:29 KJV) Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge. (1 Cor 14:30 KJV) If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace. (1 Cor 14:31 KJV) For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted. (1 Cor 14:32 KJV) And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. (1 Cor 14:33 KJV) For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. Paul was writing this to a "Spirit-filled" Church. His letters are an encouragement to us all, in the Body. Let us not get involved in doctrinal disputes, but instead, encourage one another, as Paul did and still does. Tongues have not ceased yet, neither has the infilling of the Holy Ghost. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is the Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last. And we will try to worship Him as much as He deserves it. (Rev 22:12 KJV) And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. (Rev 22:13 KJV) I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. (Rev 22:14 KJV) Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. (Rev 22:15 KJV) For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. (Rev 22:16 KJV) I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. (Rev 22:17 KJV) And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely. (Rev 22:18 KJV) For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: (Rev 22:19 KJV) And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. (Rev 22:20 KJV) He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. (Rev 22:21 KJV) The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you
all. Amen.
