excellent job providing a Reformed Perspective on Baptism of the Holy Spirit. Through his work I was able to see the connection between the Holy Spirit’s work in the Old Testament and the fulfillment of the Holy Spirit’s empowerment of Jesus’ followers. However‚ the main topic of discussion by Kaiser is whether there is one event of salvation—including the infilling of the Holy Spirit; or are there two different events—one for salvation and the other baptism of the Holy Spirit. In light of this‚ what I find

Pentecost and the Outpouring of the Holy Spirit I am passionate about Evangelism! My soul aches when I find out a person has died without knowing Christ. If only I could have done something. What if I would have told them about Jesus and His saving grace? The Holy Spirit enables us to be His witness; to take the Good News “to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:8). I often think I should wait to share the gospel until I have had the proper “training”. I am afraid I won’t represent the word of God

THE WORK OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IN REGENERATION INTRODUCTION The words "born again" have been cheapened today by many in religion. Satan is a master at redefining Bible terms; therefore‚ it behooves us to have a clear understanding of the Scriptural meaning of these words. Let’s consider what the Bible teaches about being "regenerated" or "born again." I. THE NECESSITY OF THE NEW BIRTH A. OUR LORD CLEARLY REVEALED THAT REGENERATION WAS NECESSARY TO SALVATION (Jn. 3:3‚ 5). 1. Before a man

The Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit The seven gifts of the Holy Spirit are enumerated in Isaiah 11:2-3. They are present in their fullness in Jesus Christ but are found in all Christians who are in a state of grace. We receive them when we are infused with sanctifying grace which we receive twice‚ once during baptism‚ and once during confirmation. I chose this topic because the Holy Spirit lives inside us and guides the actions of those who desire His presence. The Holy Spirit empowers the believer

The interceding of the Holy Spirit is one of the benefits of salvation. Because of the nature of mankind even when they are saved there still exists a spiritual conflict in the body. Hence this makes the indwelling of the Holy Spirit important. This paper will concentrate on the interceding work of the Holy Spirit for believers. The interceding work of the Holy Spirit in the life of believers comes as a result of man’s weakness. Dr. Wallace states that in Romans 8:26‚ 27‚ Paul speaks of two ways
