    WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

    Having an uncontrollable force take over your mind and body accompanied with fainting, shouts and/or spastic movements saying incomprehensible, unrecognizable utterances.

    Being filled with the Spirit is being led by the Spirit
    Ephesians 5:18 ESV
    And do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery, but be filled with the Spirit,
    What happens when you drunk

    addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart,

    giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,

    Biblical examples of being Filled with the Holy Spirit

    How Are You Filled With the Holy Spirit

    The Spirit is initially Passive in Everyone
    Romans 1:16–19 ESV
    For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.” For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them.
    What is the power for Salvation!
    Why so many can’t see this?
    They suppress the truth
    1 Corinthians 15:1–4 ESV
    Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain. For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures,
    Romans 3:23 ESV
    for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
    Romans 6:23 ESV
    For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
    Romans 10:17 ESV
    So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.
    Hebrews 11:6 ESV
    And without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.
    Acts 17:30 ESV
    The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent,
    1 Timothy 6:12 ESV
    Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called and about which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses.
    Romans 6:3–4 ESV
    Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.
