The Baptism in the Holy Spirit

Receive the Spirit’s baptism—fresh power for witness, boldness, and mission in everyday life.

 

Session 2 - The Baptism in the Holy Spirit

This session explores the baptism in the Holy Spirit as a further, empowering experience for believers, given for mission, witness, and service. It looks at key moments in Acts, what “evidence” may look like, and how Jesus invites us to ask in faith.

Key themes

  •  
    The Baptism in the Holy Spirit is a further, deeper experience for people who already believe in Jesus.
  •  
    The Baptism in the Holy Spirit is primarily given for witness, testimony, and service.
  •  
    The Baptism in the Holy Spirit is seen repeatedly in Acts as believers are filled for mission.
  •  
    The Baptism in the Holy Spirit should show in some form of spiritual “evidence,” while recognising God treats people as individuals.
