How do we receive the Holy Spirit according to the Bible?

Answered in 1 source

The Holy Spirit is received by all who believe in Jesus Christ as their Savior.

According to Scripture, particularly in Ephesians 1:13, believers receive the Holy Spirit after they hear the gospel and place their trust in Christ. This sealing by the Holy Spirit indicates that they belong to God and have been redeemed through the blood of Jesus. The Holy Spirit not only serves as a guarantee of the believer's inheritance but also functions in their daily walk, guiding and empowering them to grow in faith. Thus, it is through believing in Christ that individuals are enabled to partake in the fullness of the Spirit's work in their lives, leading to transformation and fellowship with God.
