  1. 12 Foundation Stones of Christian Faith Foundation Stone #5: Holy Spirit Baptism RLBruderick, Jan. 19, 2011

  2. Hebrews 6:1-3 Therefore let us leave the elementary teachings about Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death, and of faith in God, instruction about baptisms, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. And God permitting, we will do so. (NIV)

  3. 所以,我们应当离开基督道理的开端,竭力进到完全的地步,不必再立根基,就如那懊悔死行,信靠神、各样洗礼、按手之礼、死人复活,以及永远审判各等教训。所以,我们应当离开基督道理的开端,竭力进到完全的地步,不必再立根基,就如那懊悔死行,信靠神、各样洗礼、按手之礼、死人复活,以及永远审判各等教训。

  5. Q1: What is the Holy Spirit?

  6. Q1: What is the Holy Spirit? A1: The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God: God in spirit form. R1: John 4:24; Philippians 3:3; I Corinthians 2:10-12

  7. John 4:24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.“ Philippians 3:3 For it is we who are the circumcision - we who worship in the Spirit of God and boast in Christ Jesus. We have not placed any confidence in the flesh,

  8. 1 Corinthians 2:10-12 But God has revealed those things to us by his Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the deep things of God. Is there anyone who can understand his own thoughts except by his own inner spirit? In the same way, no one can know the thoughts of God except God's Spirit. Now, we have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who comes from God, so that we can understand the things that were freely given to us by God.

  9. Q2: Are there other names/titles/roles for the Holy Spirit?

  10. Q2: Are there other names/titles/roles for the Holy Spirit? A2: The Holy Spirit is sometimes called the Holy Ghost, the Comforter or the Helper, and he is our Teacher and the guarantee of our inheritance. R2: Matthew 28:19; John 14:26; 15:26; Luke 12:12; Ephesians 1:13,14

  11. Matthew 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: John 14:26 But the Comforter, even the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said unto you. John 14:26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and remind you of all that I have told you. John 15:26 "When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of Truth who comes from the Father, he will testify on my behalf.

  12. Luke 12:11,12 When people bring you before synagogue leaders, rulers, or authorities, don't worry about how you will defend yourselves or what you will say. For in that hour the Holy Spirit will teach you what you are to say." Ephesians 1:13,14 You, too, have heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed in him you were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of God's own possession, to his praise and glory.

  13. Q3: Is the Holy Spirit everywhere, in objects and animals? Or is the Holy Spirit only in people?

  14. Q3: Is the Holy Spirit everywhere, in objects and animals? Or is the Holy Spirit only in people? A3: The Holy Spirit is only in people. According to the Bible, God only baptizes (“overwhelms”), or fills, people with His Holy Spirit because people do important things. Every time a person is filled with the Holy Spirit they do something - as evidence to the other people who are near. R3: Acts 2:2-4; I Corinthians 3:16

  15. Act 2:2-4 Suddenly, a sound like the roaring of a mighty windstorm came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw tongues like flames of fire that separated, and one rested on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them that ability. 1Corinthians 3:16 You know that you are God's sanctuary and that God's Spirit lives in you, don't you?

  16. Q4: Who does God want to fill/baptize with His Holy Spirit? Are there special requirements?

  17. Q4: Who does God want to fill/baptize with His Holy Spirit? Are there special requirements? A4: God wants to pour out His Spirit on ALL people.But only obedient people who are ready to be His witnesses will receive the Holy Spirit. R4: Acts 2:17-18; 5:32; 1:8; I Corinthians 2:4,5

  18. Act 2:17,18 'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on everyone. Your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams. In those days I will even pour out my Spirit on my slaves, men and women alike, and they will prophesy. Act 5:32 We are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who keep on obeying him."

  19. Act 1:8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth." 1 Corinthians 2:4,5 My message and my preaching were not accompanied by clever words of wisdom, but by a display of the Spirit's power, so that your faith would not be based on human wisdom but on God's power.

  20. Q5: Why does God want to baptize/fill everyone with His Holy Spirit?

  21. Q5: Why does God want to baptize/fill everyone with His Holy Spirit? A5: Many reasons: to lead us, to guide us, to comfort us, to help us to pray, to teach us, to give us power over sin, to live in us, to love us. But the main reason is to use us to display His glory to all people. R5: Romans 8:9-14,26,27; 15:18,19

  22. Rom 8:9,11,13,14,26,27 You, however, are not of the flesh but under the control of the Spirit, since God's Spirit lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to him. And if the Spirit of the one who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, then the one who raised Christ from the dead will also make your mortal bodies alive by his Spirit who lives in you. For if you live according to the flesh, you are going to die, but if by the Spirit you continually put to death the activities of the body, you will live. For all who are led by God's Spirit are God's children. In the same way, the Spirit also helps us in our weakness, for we do not know how to pray as we should. But the Spirit himself intercedes with groans too deep for words, and the one who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, for the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to God's will.

  23. Romans 15:18,19 For I am bold enough to tell you only about what Christ has accomplished through me in the bringing of gentiles to obedience. By my words and actions, by the power of signs and wonders, and by the power of God's Spirit, I have fully proclaimed the gospel of Christ from Jerusalem as far as Illyricum.

  24. Q6: When did Jesus begin to baptize people with the Holy Spirit, as John the Baptist prophesied?

  25. Q6: When did Jesus begin to baptize people with the Holy Spirit, as John the Baptist prophesied? A6: The Day of Pentecost, shortly after Jesus went up into heaven, is the day when the Holy Spirit fell down from heaven with a mighty wind and with tongues of fire on the heads of the 120 or so believers who were praying for God to lead and guide them. R6: John 7:39; Acts 1:4-8; Acts 2:1-4

  26. John 7:39 Now he said this about the Spirit, whom those who were believing in him were to receive. For the Spirit was not yet present, because Jesus had not yet been glorified. Act 1:4-8 While he was meeting with them, he ordered them, "Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the Father's promise, about which you heard me speak. For John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now." Now those who had come together began to ask him, "Lord, is this the time when you will restore the kingdom to Israel?" He answered them, "It is not for you to know what times or periods the Father has set by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."

  27. Act 2:1-4 When the day of Pentecost came, all of them were together in one place. Suddenly, a sound like the roaring of a mighty windstorm came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw tongues like flames of fire that separated, and one rested on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them that ability.

  28. Q7: How does a person prepare to be baptized with the Holy Spirit?

  29. Q7: How does a person prepare to be baptized with the Holy Spirit? A7: By repenting, getting water baptized and then praying earnestly for it. There’s a first time to be filled and there are more times that follow. R7: Acts 2:38,39; 8:15-17; Ephesians 5:18

  30. Act 2:38,39 Peter answered them, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. Then you will receive the Holy Spirit as a gift. For this promise belongs to you and your children, as well as to all those who are far away, whom the Lord our God may call to himself." Act 8:15-17 They went down and prayed for them to receive the Holy Spirit. Before this he had not come on any of them. They had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit. Ephesians 5:18 Stop getting drunk with wine, which leads to wild living, but keep on being filled with the Spirit.

  31. Q8: How does a person receive the baptism / filling of the Holy Spirit?

  32. Q8: How does a person receive the baptism/filling of the Holy Spirit? A8: Initially, the Spirit was poured out from heaven on 120 believers. That can still happen, but most of the time, a Spirit-filled believer will lay hands on a believer without the Holy Spirit who will then believe and receive Him. R8: Acts 8:17-19; 10:44-46; 19:2-6; Galatians 3:2,5

  33. Act 10:44-46 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all the people who were listening to his message. Then the circumcised believers who had come with Peter were amazed that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the gentiles, too. For they heard them speaking in tongues and praising God. Then Peter said, … Act 8:17-19 Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit. Now when Simon saw that the Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money and said, "Give me this power too, so that when I lay my hands on someone he will receive the Holy Spirit."

  34. Act 19:2-6 and asked them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" They answered him, "No, we haven't even heard that there is a Holy Spirit." He then asked, "Then into what were you baptized?" They answered, "Into John's baptism." Then Paul said, "John baptized with a baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him, that is, in Jesus." On hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. When Paul laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they began to speak in tongues and to prophesy. Gal 3:2,5 I want to learn only one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by doing the works of the law or by believing what you heard? Does God supply you with the Spirit and work miracles among you because you do the works of the law or because you believe what you heard?

  35. Q9: How can anyone know when the Holy Spirit fills someone?

  36. Q9: How can anyone know when the Holy Spirit fills someone? A9: There is short-term evidence: gifts. And there is long-term evidence; fruit. Gifts are powerful special abilities that Spirit-filled people use. Fruit are character changes that make Spirit-filled people desirable to a spiritually hungry world. R9: I Corinthians 12:4-7; I John 3:24; Acts 10:44-48; Galatians 5:22-25

  37. 1 Corinthians 12:4-7 Now there are varieties of gifts, but the Spirit is the same; and there are varieties of ministries, but the Lord is the same; and there are varieties of results, but God is the same, and it is he who produces all the results in everyone. To each person has been given the ability to display the Spirit for the common good. Act 10:44-48 While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all the people who were listening to his message. Then the circumcised believers who had come with Peter were amazed that the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out on the gentiles, too. For they heard them speaking in tongues and praising God. Then Peter said, "No one can stop us from using water to baptize these people who have received the Holy Spirit in the same way that we did, can he?" So he ordered them to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they asked him to stay for several days.

  38. Galatians 5:22-25 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against such things. Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified their flesh with its passions and desires. If we live by the Spirit, let us also be guided by the Spirit. 1 John 3:24 The person who keeps his commandments abides in God, and God abides in him. This is how we can be sure that he remains in us: he has given us his Spirit.

  39. Q10: What are the powerful gifts of the Holy Spirit and how are they displayed?

  40. Q10: What are the powerful gifts of the Holy Spirit and how are they displayed? A10: They are supernatural abilities, including the ability: to speak a message of wisdom, to speak with knowledge, to show faith, to heal, to do miracles, to prophecy, to discern spirits, to speak tongues, and to interpret tongues. R10: I Corinthians 12:7-11

  41. 1Co 12:7-11 To each person has been given the ability to display the Spirit for the common good. To one has been given a message of wisdom by the Spirit; to another the ability to speak with knowledge according to the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit; to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit; to another miraculous results; to another prophecy; to another the ability to distinguish between spirits; to another various kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit produces all these results and gives what he wants to each person.

  42. Q11: What if a person has hands laid on them to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit, but nothing happens?

  43. Q11: What if a person has hands laid on them to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit, but nothing happens? A11: Keep praying and desiring a gift that displays the Spirit in your life. Ask the Spirit-filled believers who are laying hands on you and praying for you to pray in the Spirit with deep groaning. R11: I Corinthians 14:1,5; 12:7,31; Ephesians 6:18; Romans 8:26,27; Jude 1:20,21

  44. 1 Corinthians 12:7 To each person has been given the ability to display the Spirit for the common good. 12:31 Keep on desiring the better gifts. And now I will show you the best way of all. 14:1 Keep on pursuing love, and keep on desiring spiritual gifts, especially the ability to prophesy. 14:5 Now I wish that all of you could speak in tongues, but especially that you could prophesy. The person who prophesies is more important than the person who speaks in a tongue, unless he interprets it so that the church may be built up. 14:18 I thank God that I speak in tongues more than all of you.

  45. Romans 8:26-27 In the same way, the Spirit also helps us in our weakness, for we do not know how to pray as we should. But the Spirit himself intercedes with groans too deep for words, and the one who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, for the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to God's will. Ephesians 6:18 Pray in the Spirit at all times with every kind of prayer and request there is. For the same reason be alert with every kind of effort and request for all the saints. Jude 1:20,21 But you, dear friends, must continue to build yourselves up on your most holy faith. Pray in the Holy Spirit, and remain in God's love as you look for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that brings eternal life.

  46. Q12: How important is it to be baptized in the Holy Spirit?

  47. Q12: How important is it to be baptized in the Holy Spirit? A12: Jesus said that a person cannot enter the Kingdom of God unless he or she is born of water and Spirit, meaning water baptism and Spirit baptism. R12: John 3:3-8; Romans 8:9

  48. John 3:3-8 Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.” “How can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!” Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.  Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.  You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’  The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” Romans 8:9 You, however, are not of the flesh but under the control of the Spirit, since God's Spirit lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to him.
