BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT
Background Reading: John Chapter 17
It is impossible to overestimate the importance of being baptized
in the Holy Spirit - for it is impossible for Christians to meet all the
requirements of the day and walk effectively in their callings unless
they are baptized in the Holy Spirit.
This is why Jesus said:
LUKE 24:49 “And behold, I send the promise of My
Father upon you: but tarry (wait) in the city of
Jerusalem, until you be endued (clothed) with power

ACTS 1:8 “ . . .
you shall receive power (ability,
efficiency and might) after that the Holy Spirit is come
upon you: and you shall be (effective) witnesses unto Me
both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and in Samaria,
and unto the uttermost part of the earth.”

the Holy Spirit.
During His ministry He taught that in order to be
effectual witnesses for Him, we need the power and the giftings
which accompany the Spirit Baptism.
In this teaching we will cover various questions which people
often raise concerning the Baptism in the Holy Spirit.
There has been
much controversy surrounding this subject, and it is important to
discover or at least reaffirm what God’s Word really teaches on the
matter.

His purpose in this is to discredit the Spirit
Baptism so that people are prevented from knowing the fullness and
power of the Holy Spirit.
Satan knows that if Believers could fully
comprehend and take hold of this promise, his reign on earth would
