Acts 5:29-32 (KJV)


Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men. The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree. Him hath God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins. And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God hath given to them that obey him.

Peter and the other apostles were “his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost.” This Bible passage shares that God gives the Holy Spirit to those who obey him. That’s the only way Peter and the apostles could boldly proclaim in their day, and we in ours, that “we ought to obey God rather than men.”
