"So then if you are a believer that's one thing, but that does not mean that you are obeying God, just because you are a believer. You do not get the Holy Ghost just 'cause you are a believer. But The Bible says that God gives the Holy Ghost, which is the spirit of Christ, to them that obey Him. Now when you obey God then God will give you the Holy Ghost. Somebody would say, "Brother Pike I've been in this thing ten years and still have not received the Holy Ghost." That's because for ten years you've never obeyed God. But I'll tell you what, you don't have to be in it five minutes if you obey God, and you can have the Holy Ghost."
