**I’m not kicking the Father out of Christ,**

If not, then what, in your opinion, is the Father’s official capacity while residing in Christ?.....official observer?

The baptism of the Holy Ghost is real experience, just as witnessed in the Book of Acts. When one received the Holy Ghost, that person knows beyond a shadow of a doubt, that someone else abides within....forever (John 14:16).

But, only one has received the Spirit without measure (John 3:34). Christ couldn’t have become the saviour any other way. Surely you agree that Peter’s testimonies in Acts are quite accurate. I would recommend you read them again very slowly:

Acts 2:31-36; 3:13-26; 4:24-30; 5:29-32; 10:36-43

Notice how Peter just says “God”, with no three persons of God gobbledegook.

You’re welcome to interpret this one from Acts 4:26, using your doctrine:

“The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ. For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together.”

Are you suggesting that God the Father, only resided in Christ for a period of time, and then exited Him? That goes against even your own doctrine, doesn't it? In other words, God the Father resided in Christ just long enough, until Christ could stand on His own two feet as a deity, and then God the Father could exit out of Christ, because Christ became a legit god. worthy to be worshiped. WOW! That's some strange doctrine, dude.

Actually, Paul does say it better than I can.

2 Corinthians 11:4
For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him.
