This show answered the question,”Where does the Holy Spirit fit into the experiences of the new birth and the Holy Ghost baptism?”  Acts 19:1-7 they had not even heard that there be a Holy Spirit.  Sad to say this is the condition of a weak church today.  We have allowed fanaticism and wrong teaching, even teaching that the evidence of tongues of of the devil to discourage us from proper introduction to the Spirit of God.  In the new birth you receive Jesus as Savior and the work of the Holy Ghost.  In the baptism of the Holy Spirit, Jesus baptizes you with the Holy Ghost and you receive His person.  In Acts 10 Peter preached a sermon and the Holy Ghost fell and Gentiles received Him (proselytes).  We believe in the doctrine of the Trinity…not 3 gods but One True God manifested in 3 persons.  Since God is eternal He has no beginning and no end.  In the Old Testament we see God (in the past) in the New Testament (gospels) we see Jesus as the present ministry and in the Acts and epistles we see the Holy Spirit looking to the future.  In this age the Holy Spirit indwells us and comes upon us to make us witnesses of God’s power!

We must learn to walk by the Word or the renewing of the mind because that is what ignites the anointing inside of you.  That well of water should be springing up inside of you the very life of God.  Sometimes we think we cannot minister as Jesus did because He was the Son of God.  Jesus operated as a mere man anointed of the Holy Ghost.  (Luke 4:18; Acts 10:38)  If Jesus of Nazareth (man) needed this experience to endue Him with power in ministry why do we in the churh say we don’t find it necessary)?  Are we saying we are better than Jesus?  Acts 10:46 They heard them speak with tongues and magnify God.  The word magnify in the Greek means enlarge.  When we magnify God we allow Him to be enlarged beyond our own thoughts.  How about doing church God’s way?
