Some claim that the Holy Spirit *arrived* to the earth at Pentecost and was not here before then, nor will He be here after we are *raptured*. This is incorrect theology. The Holy Spirit is given to any person who gives their life to God in faith. Before God came to us in human form (as the man Jesus), He came to His chosen as Jesus in His pre-human form ... I have no idea what a glorious state that was, but I'm sure His current resurrected state is even more glorious! As you will see by the passages below, there are many mentions of the Spirit of God and how He was with man and IN men that God called. He (God's Holy Spirit) has been, and always will be, WITH us (God's people), now and forever and ever.

Isa 59:21 As for me, this [is] my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that [is] upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever.

The Holy Spirit is God's *seal* upon His people (us, His believers). It is by His Spirit that we will be resurrected into our new bodies at the Lord's return.

2Cr 1:22 Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

Eph 1:12 That we should be to the praise of his glory, who first trusted in Christ.
Eph 1:13 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 1:14 Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

Eph 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

The people of the church era from Pentecost until the Lord's return are NOT the only people sealed & redeemed, I'm sure you know that. All the prophets, judges, and those that believed God throughout the ages and that have His Spirit within will be resurrected on the day the Lord returns. It's not just about the church today but the church throughout time. Dare we say that Moses or David will not be resurrected when we are? Or those people that have believed God throughout the ages? Do your own research please ... the Holy Spirit is all over the OT, not just the NT. Some of the search keywords I looked up on BlueLetterBible are {time limits me to only listing some, please click the links for more}:

Spirit Lord
Moses had the Spirit, and from him it was passed to 70 elders ...
Num 11:23 And the LORD said unto Moses, Is the LORD'S hand waxed short? thou shalt see now whether my word shall come to pass unto thee or not.
Num 11:24 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD, and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the tabernacle.
Num 11:25 And the LORD came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and took of the spirit that [was] upon him, and gave [it] unto the seventy elders: and it came to pass, [that], when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease.

Moses said God would (wished to) have His Spirit upon all His people ...
Num 11:29 And Moses said unto him, Enviest thou for my sake? would God that all the LORD'S people were prophets, [and] that the LORD would put his spirit upon them!

Joshua had the Spirit of the Lord ...
Num 27:18 And the LORD said unto Moses, Take thee Joshua the son of Nun, a man in whom [is] the spirit, and lay thine hand upon him;
Num 27:19 And set him before Eleazar the priest, and before all the congregation; and give him a charge in their sight.

King David had the Spirit of the Lord ...
1Sa 16:13 Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah.

2Sa 23:1 Now these [be] the last words of David. David the son of Jesse said, and the man [who was] raised up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel, said,
2Sa 23:2 The Spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his word [was] in my tongue.

Isaiah prophecies about Jesus; Jesus reads this same scripture (about Himself) in the Temple ...
Isa 61:1 The Spirit of the Lord GOD [is] upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to [them that are] bound;
Isa 61:2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
Isa 61:3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.

Jesus had the Spirit ...
Luk 4:17 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,
Luk 4:18 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,
Luk 4:19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
Luk 4:20 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.
Luk 4:21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.

Notice, Jesus did not quote the verses in their entirety, some of that scripture would not be fulfilled until later, thus His ommission of it! That *day of vengeance* (70 AD) did NOT have to happen ;o/

Mat 3:16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
Mat 3:17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

Jhn 1:32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.
Jhn 1:33 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.

Ezekiel the prophet had the Spirit of the Lord ...
Eze 11:5 And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus saith the LORD; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I know the things that come into your mind, [every one of] them.

Other keywords you can search are, some I've quoted:
Spirit God
The Spirit of God IS the Holy Spirit ...
Gen 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness [was] upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

An egyptian pharaoh, speaking of Joseph, said ...
Gen 41:38 And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find [such a one] as this [is], a man in whom the Spirit of God [is]?

Holy Spirit
David, the pslamist & king of Israel, said ...
Psa 51:11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.

Holy Ghost is a term found only in the NT (KJV), but it speaks of the same Spirit of the Lord GOD, the Holy Spirit, and His movement among us of the *church age*.

The Lord's Spirit ~the Holy Spirit~ has been working in and with mankind from the beginning, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. You can read it for yourself in the scriptures! As to the Holy Spirit being taken out of the way (when the church is *raptured*) that is another article. I can assure you though, that if we are raptured and there are some people *left behind* that do come to the Lord thereafter ... they too will get the Holy Spirit as He is the only One God has given us as a Mentor and Comforter, at least until Jesus returns for His 1000 year reign. Personally I don't believe the Lord will leave anyone behind, as I've written in other articles.

Beware the preacher or prophet that doesn't teach from God's word:
Eze 13:3 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!

Thanks for reading ;o}

God bless you!
