"To Receive Holy Spirit" And To Be Filled With Holy Spirit", Is It The Same? by bolafez(m): 2:03pm On May 13, 2018
I stumbled on a bible verse today Luke 1 vs 41.
the Bible says and she (Elizabeth) was FILLED with holy Spirit.(Good news)
acts 8 vs 17 Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they RECEIVED the Holy Spirit.(Good news ).
The question is: is there difference between these two ? i.e to be filled and to receive.
Pls, back up your points with one or more Bible verses.

Bro pls.... IT IS SIMPLE ENGLISH LANGUAGE NA,

FULL means there is a container, RECEIVE means something was given

To receive a BOTTLE OF WATER does not mean it is FULL.

AFTER RECEIVING, The bottle may be full, empty or half-full

so that's all u need to understand your question....

PLEASE WHEN READING THE BIBLE, DO NOT DROP YOUR INTELLIGENCE ASIDE
