Hi,
If you remember the disciples "before Jesus was crucified" healed people. They couldn't do this of their own accord. What was given to them was temporary because they all still had sin and the Holy Spirit had to leave from them because of it. God cannot be in the presence of Sin.
At Pentecost they received it Full Force. I think Pentecost is one of the things most Christian Movies leaves out. The Passion and the rest always ends after the 3 days and Jesus being raised but Pentecost was the completion of the entire story.
Nobody is saved until they receive the Holy Spirit. That is what separates the Goats from the Sheep that Jesus spoke about. The Sheep has the Holy Spirit and that Righteousness is what God sees in one who is saved.
My Righteousness and yours, and everybody elses would send us to Hell!
We all deserve nothing better.
But what God sees when looking at one who is saved is only the Righteousness of His Spirit(Son) in us, that Spirit is what Jesus was created as sorta Son(Human Understanding) to receive and to pass onto us by taking My sin onto His son. It's not the entire World's Sin but just Mine, each one by ourselves.
When I accepted His pain and death in replace of what I deserve, it was God who sent His Spirit to be inside of me. It's called being humble and looking at yourself in the mirror(God's Purity) and accepting the truth of what I am. I am a sinner who deserves to Burn in Hell forever! Nothing I can ever ever do will cover that cost.
Only God can cover my Sin and he has to do that BEFORE I die not afterwards.
