I know what the promises are, and I agree with you on that. But, acquiring them is something entirely different, it's conditional. This should be obvious for just as much, salvation is conditional. We understand how the wording is expressed in the Bible, in that at times, it sounds like universalism - meaning that no more effort is required on the redeemed one's part. But, we know that this is not true, repentance and conviction is required, and all that these two dispositions imply. Same with receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit, not all that were converted in the NT, had either the same gifts, or any gifts, at least that were recorded.If it hasn't happened to you, then maybe you should clear your mind of all your past denominational dogmas and start over, asking the Father, the Author of His Word, to reveal the meaning of every verse He authored. I did, and He has been faithful to teach me the true meaning of His Words. My understanding has exploded, and yours can too.
You don't have much time to overcome before the Great Tribulation starts, so if I were you, I'd humble myself and start praying and listening. You have so much to learn, and not a lot of time to overcome.
Both anecdotally and Scripturally, we witness a contingency upon receiving the Spirit.
