After sealing the covenant at The Lord’s Supper with the cup and then paying the bride price of His Life set by His Father, Jesus went back to his Father’s house to prepare a place for His betrothed. As promised, Jesus sent The Holy Ghost as a comfort and guide to assist his Bride, The Church of God, in preparing for His return.
Joh 14:26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
The Holy Ghost knows what the Bride needs to accomplish to be made perfect and holy, without spot or blemish or any such thing for her Bridegroom.
The Third Person of the Godhead, author of the Holy Scriptures, The Holy Ghost KNOWS the mind of God, HE KNOWS the DESIRES of the Bridegroom and HE IS ABLE TO KEEP The Church of God in the PERFECT WILL OF GOD AT ALL TIMES according to the plan laid out before the foundation of the World.
Eph 1:4 According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:
As individual covenant members, we need to be BAPTIZED in The Holy Ghost. Baptized means to be immersed completely. As individual covenant members, we need to be FILLED and FULL of The Holy Ghost.
Being immersed inside and out ...I would liken that to being "drowned" in the Holy Ghost. Our will is suffocated and dies and HIS will takes command. The Holy Ghost will not be a renter or a squatter in our hearts. He wants the DEED...full ownership. He WILL complete his work with or without me.
The Church of God, the Bride of Christ, The Body of Christ is pre-destined in scripture to be victorious. Her future has already been written. However, mine has not...unless I remain IMMERSED or BAPTIZED with the Holy Ghost and give HIM full control.
1Co 12:18 But now hath God set the members EVERY ONE OF THEM in the body, as it hath PLEASED him.
As long as I remain obedient to God, He will place me...or if I am not obedient to God he will displace me according to HIS will.
BELIEVE and have FAITH IN God and Be filled with the Holy Ghost.
Joh 15:9-10 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.

"The Holy Ghost teaches absolute truth, while man can only assume what he thinks to be truth. For the most part man is wrong because he bases his findings on carnal reasoning and fleshly assumptions. The carnal mind cannot know nor receive the things of the Spirit of God, let alone teach them." (Christology-BTI Study Course)
1Co 2:12-14 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. (13) Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. (14) But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
