About God's Power of Resurrection
The Holy Spirit is about to baptize again. I'd like to convey the genuine meaning of being baptized or filled with the Holy Spirit. Most people would assume I'm already filled with the Holy Spirit and talk in tongues.
I'd want to speak about Holy Spirit Baptisms (plural).
Matthew 3:11 I baptize you with water for repentance; but he who comes after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not fit to bear: he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire:
Jesus mentioned a baptism of the Holy Spirit and fire on several occasions. Is there more than one type of God's baptism? The disciples were refilled several times. Paul spoke about being filled and continuing to be filled. More than one filling of the Holy Spirit is possible. I'd want to discuss three separate fire baptisms. Heb. 6: A study of many baptisms might be interesting. (The Baptismal Doctrine.)
We have accepted "speaking in tongues" as the entirety of what God intended as a sign of baptism. We've made do with less. We can be filled with the Holy Spirit in a certain way. The Church is not attempting to flip the world on its head.
Before he ever spoke in tongues, John G. Lake walked in miracles for eight years. Being filled has a lot of power. Smith Wigglesworth had a long history of miracles, and when he was ready to be filled with the Holy Spirit, he fasted and prayed for ten days. True Holy Spirit Baptism isn't simple to come by, especially when it comes to resurrection power. I'm going to discuss the power and fire baptisms, as well as how to receive them.
