Did you know, that if someone NEVER gets baptized after receiving the Holy Ghost, and continues in sin, that they are not saved?
Why are they not saved?
They have received the Spirit, Right?
The Spirit alone does not guarantee salvation, it is primarily a tool used by God to cause us to become hungry for spiritual things, like wanting to be baptized and giving us a desire to stop sinning.
That is why the Bible terms WATER BAPTISM for the REMISSION of sins.
Spirit infilling is not for the remission of sins, but to lead a soul to get themselves water baptized for the remission of sins.
