While many holy men of olden times (prior to Christ Jesus' glorification) had the Spirit with them, thereby providing the power which enabled them to perform the miracles which they are credited with having done, the Lord Jesus Christ is the only human being who has ever been endowed with the Spirit without measure. (see II Corinthians 5:19)
