Holy Spirit given to all Believers.
Prior to this event the Holy Spirit was only given to certain believers so that they would be enabled to do the will of God. Now all believers from this point on would receive the Holy Spirit, because they had to be empowered to serve.
Many Christians today make the slight mistake of asking Jesus for more of the Holy Spirit and for the gifts, that they already possess and refuse to use.
Everyone outside the born-again/converted experience cannot receive this power, it is only for us.
Acts 1:8, 2:33, 1 Thessalonians 1:6, Hebrews 3:7.
