THE LIFE OF JESUS
Part 22: The Baptism of the Holy Spirit |
|
|
Very little was revealed about the Holy Spirit in the
Old Testament. John the Baptist began his public ministry by telling
the people that there was someone coming after him who would baptize
them in fire. Jesus told His disciples before ascending to heaven
that He did not want them leaving Jerusalem until they had been
baptized in the Holy Spirit. The 120 disciples were gathered in the
upper room on the day of Pentecost when Holy Ghost fire fell on
them. Jews from foreign nations had come to Jerusalem to worship at
the temple when the disciples of Jesus suddenly poured out into the
city streets. They were speaking about Jesus and His resurrection in
the respective languages of the visiting Jews. The convicting power
of the Holy Spirit was so strong that 3,000 men were saved that day.
Power was what the Son of God promised; supernatural power to
further the Kingdom of God. Jesus intends for us to operate in the
supernatural gifts of the Holy Spirit. This is what the New
Testament teaches and you too can experience what it was like for
the early church in the Book of Acts. |
