Have ALL who have repented and been baptized in Jesus Name received the gift of the Holy Ghost?
If we say, NO, then we really do not believe in Acts 2:38 as much as we thought do we?

If we count Peter's words as being inspired of God, then yes, everyone who has repented and been baptized in Jesus name should expect to recieve the gift of the Holy Spirit.
If they have not, then I believe something is hindering their faith.
