And the angel answered, and said unto her, "The holy ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the highest shall overshadow thee. Therefore also that holy thing which shall be born, shall be called the son of God.

And Jesus, as soon as he was baptized, came straight out of the water: And, lo, heaven was opened over him, and John saw the spirit of God descend, like a dove, and light upon him: And, lo, there came a voice from heaven, saying, "This is that, my beloved son, in whom is my delight."

And as soon as he was come out of the water, John saw the heavens open, and the holy ghost descending upon him like a dove. And there came a voice from heaven, "Thou art my dear son, in whom I delight."

And it fortuned, as all the people received baptism - And when Jesus was baptised and did pray - that heaven was opened, and the holy ghost came down in a bodily shape like a dove upon him; And a voice came from heaven, saying, "Thou art my dear son; In thee do I delight."

How God had anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the holy ghost, and with power; which Jesus went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devils, for God was with him.

That same time rejoiced Jesus in the holy ghost, and said, "I confess unto thee father Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast opened them to the babes. Even so, father, for so pleased it thee.

For he whom God hath sent, speaketh the words of God. For God giveth not the spirit by measure.

Elect by the foreknowledge of God the father, through the sanctifying of the spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ. Grace be with you, and peace be multiplied.

For it is God which establisheth us and you in Christ, and hath anointed us, which hath also sealed us, and hath given the earnest of the spirit into our hearts.

But when the time was full come, God sent his son - born of a woman, and made bond unto the law - to redeem them which were under the law: that we through election might receive the inheritance that belongeth unto the natural sons. Because ye are sons, God hath sent the spirit of his son into our hearts, which crieth "Abba, father."

Blessed be God the father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which hath blessed us with all manner of spiritual blessings in heavenly things by Christ, according as he had chosen us in him through love, before the foundation of the world was laid, that we should be saints, and without blame before him, through love. And ordained us before unto himself that we should be chosen before, through Jesus Christ, to be heirs unto himself according to the pleasure of his will,read more.
to the praise of the glory of his grace, wherewith he hath made us accepted in the beloved. By whom we have redemption through his blood, that is to say, even the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace, which grace he shed on us abundantly in all wisdom, and prudence. And hath opened unto us the mystery of his will according to his pleasure, and purposed the same in himself to have it declared when the time were full come: that all things, both the things which are in heaven, and also the things which are in earth, should be gathered together, even in Christ. That is to say, in him in whom we are made heirs, and were thereto predestinate according to the purpose of him which worketh all things after the purpose of his own will: that we should be unto the praise of his glory, which before believed in Christ. In whom also ye - after that ye heard the word of truth, I mean the gospel of your salvation wherein ye believed - were sealed with the holy spirit of promise, which is the earnest of our inheritance, to redeem the possession purchased, and that unto the laud of his glory.

For through him we both have an open way in, in one spirit unto the father.

But we are bound to give thanks always to God for you, brethren, beloved of the Lord, for because that God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation, through sanctifying of the spirit; And through believing the truth: whereunto he called you by our gospel, to obtain the glory that cometh of our Lord Jesus Christ.

But after that the kindness and love of our saviour God to man ward appeared, not of the deeds of righteousness which we wrought, but of his mercy, he saved us, by the fountain of the new birth, and with the renewing of the holy ghost, which he shed on us abundantly, through Jesus Christ our saviour;

Then Jesus said unto them again, "Peace be with you. As my father sent me, even so send I you." And when he had said that, he breathed on them, and said unto them, "Receive the holy ghost.

And he said unto them, "It is not for you to know the times, or the seasons which the father hath put in his own power: but ye shall receive power of the holy ghost which shall come on you. And ye shall be witnesses unto me in Jerusalem, and in all Jewry, and in Samaria, and even unto the world's end."

But he, being full of the holy ghost, looked up steadfastly with his eyes into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the righthand of God,

Him hath God lift up with his right hand, to be a ruler and a saviour: for to give repentance to Israel and forgiveness of sins. And we are his records as concerning these things: and also the holy ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him."

Peter said unto them, "Repent, and be baptised every one of of you in the name of Jesus Christ, for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the holy ghost. "For the promise was made unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar, even as many as the Lord God shall call."

in whom ye also are built together, and made a habitation for God in the spirit.

There are diversities of gifts verily, yet but one spirit. And there are differences of administrations, and yet but one Lord. And there are divers manners of operations, and yet but one God, which worketh all things that are wrought in all creatures.
