NOPE ye MUST be born again. The Holy Ghost is what will quicken or resurrect our mortal bodies. Onlt hose who have the earnest or firstfruits will go in the rapture. Take more than repentance alone to be in the church. And ONLY the church will be raptured.

NO. Because the HG is the promised earnest of our inheritance. IF you do not have it, you do not have eternal life.

See the problem in your senerio is that the only reason a person would not receive the Holy Ghost is if they did not repent, or have unrepented sin in their heart, or they do not have faith.

I can go and wash my friends car, but that does not make it my car. It is when the car is titled in my name that it becomes mine.

Rom 8:9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

Can you have the Holy Ghost living in you (after you have repented and been baptized) if you haven't spoken in tongues?

We're mainly just disagreeing then, as to when the "title" transfers.

As long as they believe that the Spirit of God is only when they speak in tongues, they will always believe you are hell bound if you dont speak in tongues...that's the issue here.
