The girt of the Holy Ghost was given from Adam onwards whenever there were PH holders on the earth. It is all over the Book of Mormon and old testament.Vision wrote: ↑October 24th, 2017, 6:46 pmBecause it wasn't available until the Day of Pentecostsetyourselffree wrote: ↑October 24th, 2017, 2:19 am I was reading 1 Nephi chapter 11 and Nephi talks about the Holy Ghost a lot. Why was he never mentioned in the Old Testiment?
Only during the time that Jesus was in Palestine on the flesh was the gift not given, as Jesus was among them. During the same time period it was operational in the Americas among the Nephites. The HG still operated while Jesus was with his disciples, like it does today with converts - but the gift only comes with baptism and laying of hands for the HG. That is how the 12 Apostles got a testimony -as Jesus said unto them Flesh and Blood has not revealed it unto you.
