    Wotsup,
    Of course,in many places its obvious Christ was in tune with his father,God who sent him as his representative here on earth.
    He was flesh.
    Just like we are.
    As our example,he had to rely on his father,for his spiritual well being.
    Like us, God can pour out his spirit on whom he sees fit,its all through the bible,for anyone to say those folks who didnt have his spirit before he gave more, are just making assumptions to suit a certain theological stance.(trintarian)

    Joel 2.29
