    Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them, 15 who, when they had come down, prayed for them that they _______ the Holy Spirit. -Acts 8:14-15

    • Should know they have already received

    • Might receive

    • Would understand what it means to receive

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Might receive
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "might receive" because the passage states that Peter and John prayed for the people of Samaria to receive the Holy Spirit. The use of "might receive" suggests that the outcome of receiving the Holy Spirit is uncertain or dependent on God's will. This implies that the apostles were praying for the people to have the opportunity or possibility of receiving the Holy Spirit, rather than assuming that they had already received it.

The passage emphasizes that God is greater than any human-made structure and that He is not limited to dwelling in a specific place.

This is because the passage states that "He had fallen upon none of them," indicating that they had not yet received the Holy Spirit. The act of baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus is often associated with receiving the Holy Spirit in the Christian faith. Therefore, the individuals mentioned in the passage had only been baptized and had not yet received the Holy Spirit.
