Understanding the Spirit (Part 5)

Speaker: Pastor Joe Ricchuiti
Series: Understanding The Spirit

The work of the Holy Spirit which unites us with Christ and with each other in the body of Christ (the Church) is called the baptizing work of the Spirit.  1 Corinthians 12:13

-it was yet future in the gospels and in Acts 1:5

-it first occurred on the Day of Pentecost.  Acts 11:15-17; 2:1-4

-it occurs at the moment of salvation

-all believers are baptized by the Spirit regardless of if they are spiritual or carnal/worldly, it is not related to spiritual condition.  All of the Corinthians were baptized (1 Cor. 12:13) yet they are called worldly, unspiritual in chapters 1-3 and the church is rife with immorality, wrong practices, and wrong theology.

-nowhere in Scripture is anyone told to seek the baptism of the Spirit

-it is basic for separation from sin and walking in newness of life. Romans 6:1-14

-it is basic to right relationships in the Body of Christ
