In this sermon The Mantle, a mantle of power and glory that is received from God when a person receives the Spirit is called the Holy Ghost. What was taking place was that God was casting His mantle upon the believers.  It was a mantle of fire and Spirit. A mantle of glory and power, one that signified that they had received the Spirit of Adoption, which made them sons of God. It was also a mantle that placed them in a special position with God.
