  7. STATEMENT OF FAITH We believe all Christians are entitled to and should seek the baptism in the Holy Spirit with the initial physical sign of speaking with other tongues according to Acts 2:4. This experience gives a Christian power to witness by his life and words.

  8. LET’S ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION! At the beginning of Jesus’ public ministry, what did John the Baptist say that Jesus would do (Matt. 3:11)?

  9. LET’S ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION! At the beginning of Jesus’ public ministry, what did John the Baptist say that Jesus would do (Matt. 3:11)? “He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.”

  10. LET’S ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION! While teaching His disciples in the Upper Room, what did Jesus tell His disciples He would do for them (John 16:7)?

  11. LET’S ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION! While teaching His disciples in the Upper Room, what did Jesus tell His disciples He would do for them (John 16:7)? He promised to send them the Holy Spirit!

  12. LET’S ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION! On Resurrection evening, the very day our Lord was raised from the dead, what did Jesus do for His disciples (John 20:19-22)?

  13. LET’S ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION! On Resurrection evening, the very day our Lord was raised from the dead, what did Jesus do for His disciples (John 20:19-22)? He gave them the Holy Spirit!

  14. LET’S ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION! Forty days later, just prior to His ascension, Jesus told His disciples to do something. What did He tell them to do (Luke 24:46-49)?

  15. LET’S ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION! Forty days later, just prior to His ascension, Jesus told His disciples to do something. What did He tell them to do (Luke 24:46-49)? To wait for the promise of the Father that would clothe them in power.

  16. LET’S ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION! Notice that the disciples already had received the Holy Spirit (in John 20), and were then told to wait for something else (in Luke 24). That “something else” was the Baptism in the Holy Spirit.

  17. LET’S ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION! Luke 24 goes right into Acts 1. In Acts 1:4,5,8, what does Jesus tell His disciples to do? Why?

  18. LET’S ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION! Luke 24 goes right into Acts 1. In Acts 1:4,5,8, what does Jesus tell His disciples to do? Why? He tells them to wait for the promise of the Father, the Baptism of the Holy Spirit. The reason they needed to wait is that they needed to be clothed in power.

  20. LET’S ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION! What Jesus said in Acts 1 actually happened in Acts 2:1-4. Describe what took place. The Holy Spirit Baptism was indeed a baptism in fire and power, evidenced by speaking in other tongues.

  21. LET’S ESTABLISH A FOUNDATION! Note: John the Baptist predicted it (Matt. 3), Jesus promised it (Luke 24 and Acts 1), and the believers received it … the Baptism of the Holy Spirit (Acts 2). The Book of Acts unfolds the story of a church full of the Holy Spirit who ministered in the power of the Spirit. They were a church indwelt, filled, and baptized with the Holy Spirit … a vigorous and vibrant church.

  40. CLARIFICATION OF TERMS INDWELT BY THE SPIRIT

  41. CLARIFICATION OF TERMS INDWELT BY THE SPIRIT The Holy Spirit who indwells us makes us a child of God. I Cor. 6:19; Rom. 8:9,11. Enoikountos = indwelling; oikos = house.

  42. CLARIFICATION OF TERMS FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT

  43. CLARIFICATION OF TERMS FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT The Holy Spirit who fills us seeks to control us and make us like Christ. Eph. 5:18. Plēróō = to control

  44. CLARIFICATION OF TERMS BAPTIZED IN THE SPIRIT

  45. CLARIFICATION OF TERMS BAPTIZED IN THE SPIRIT The Holy Spirit whMo we’re baptized in imbues us with power for witness and testimony. Acts 1:8.

  46. OTHER CLARIFICATIONS Not all biblical authors speak about the Holy Spirit in the same way. We will look at: Luke John Paul

  47. OTHER CLARIFICATIONS LUKE AND THE HOLY SPIRIT Luke has a number of agendas in Luke-Acts. -Gives a place of value to women. -Shows many examples of Jesus and the Apostles praying. -Depicts the role of the Holy Spirit in providing power for witness and proclamation. Almost every time the Holy Spirit is mentioned, we see some sort of inspired utterance following.

  48. OTHER CLARIFICATIONS LUKE AND THE HOLY SPIRIT Luke has a number of agendas in Luke-Acts. -Don’t do life, witness or ministry without the Holy Spirit. -Wait on the Holy Spirit. Long for the Holy Spirit. Pursue him. Follow him. Hunger for him (Luke 24, Acts 1). -It seems Luke focuses on what the Holy Spirit does THROUGH us to reach others.

  49. OTHER CLARIFICATIONS JOHN AND THE HOLY SPIRIT The Apostle John emphasized the Holy Spirit’s role in regeneration…new birth. Some have noted how he starts John 1 similarly to Genesis 1. John 3 – “born again” John 20 – “He breathed on them and said, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit.’” (Like God breathed life into Adam?)
