BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT
BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT
http://bautismoespiritusanto.webs.com/
PRECURSOR OF BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT
I tell you the truth: Among those born of women there has not risen anyone greater than John the Baptist; yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. Matthew 11:11
John was a lamp that burned and gave light, and you chose for a time to enjoy his light. Jhon 5:35
Why so high the label? For simplicity, for the noble profession: because he baptized personally and witnessed the promised Messiah . He listened God voice. Because he could see beyond the messianic ministry of Jesus and the Baptism UNIVERSAL prophesied in the Spirit saint of the Church.
I baptize with water those who repent of their sins and turn to God. But someone is coming soon who is greater than I am--so much greater that I'm not worthy even to be his slave and carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. Matew 3:11
He was born six months before Jesus and supernatural circumstances. Elizabeth, her mother was filled with the Holy Spirit. Luke 1:41. His father Zechariah also. Luke 1:67. And he was filled with the Holy Spirit before birth. Luke 1:15. He was then an intimacy with the Holy Spirit and when he said that Jesus would baptize with Holy Spirit and fire is because he experienced the presence of God in his life.
Water baptism and his special ministry conversion of sinners to God is peculiar. He lived in the desert to the manner of the Old Testament prophets.
Baptist and his disciples immersed in water for repentance Messiah would in the power of the Spirit.
The word baptism
The word baptism is neo testamentary. Not in the Old Testament . means into water, or immerse inmerger. Comes from the Greek baptizein.
The Jews did not baptize, but had certain rites external washings with water body.
Then the altar will be most holy, and whatever touches it will be holy.
N OR WITH WORDS
IN the Latin in. Preposition. Indicates which mode determines the action of the verb. In this case: In the Holy Spirit. WITH. From Latin cum. Preposition. Indicates the middle, so instrument used to do a thing. Here the Holy Spirit.
HOLY SPIRIT
Third Person of the Trinity. Given other names in the Bible: Spirit of Christ, Spirit of God, Spirit of the Lord. His symbols: breath, wind, dove, fire finger of God.
The expression BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT is equivalent to immerse a person in GOD. A person can wash their hands with water down or only part of his body, but this is not to be baptized. Baptism means to immerse.
Thus the baptism in the Holy Spirit is to dip or immerse a person in the holy presence of God.
BIBLICAL REFERENCES IN THE OLD TESTATENT the Spirit of God
The Holy Spirit is mentioned 81 times in the Old Testament: 13 in the Pentateuch, Isaiah 14 times, 12 times in Ezekiel, Judges and 1 Samuel mentioned 7 times and the book of Psalms 5 times. However, the expression BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT does not appear in the Old Testament. This does not mean that the Old Testament does not support this glorious experience. After this,
pour out my Spirit on all mankind *.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,
elders shall dream dreams
youth and visions.
29 In those days I will pour my Spirit
Even on the male and female servants.
Joel.
This prophet was able to visualize the universal outpouring today is manifested in all nations of the world. The following prophets also expressed:
For with stammering lips and another tongue
He will speak to this people, Isaias 28:11;
till the Spirit is poured on us from on high,
and the desert becomes a fertile field,
and the fertile field seems like a forest. Isaiah 32:15
I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring: Isaiah 44:3
I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance. but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:
This statement of John the Baptist is found recorded in the four Gospels: Matthew 3:11, Mark 1:8, Luke 3:13 and John 1:33. Matthew and Luke use the phrase: "the Holy Spirit and fire" while John and Mark say only: "WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT."
Jesus Himself used the expression "baptized with the Holy Spirit", before his ascension, when he commanded his disciples to wait for the promise of the Father.
"Not to leave Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
For John baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days. "
Peter makes memories of the words of the Lord Jesus, when he tries to explain to the apostles "that God gave the Gentiles repentance unto life"
Just began to speak, the Holy Spirit came upon them, as it did at first about us.
11:16 Then I remembered the word of the Lord, "John baptized with water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit."
11:17 So if God gave them the same grace that we, who have believed in the Lord Jesus, how I could withstand God? "
11:18 After hearing these words, were pacified and praised God, saying: "Also the pagan God has given the gift of conversion that leads to life."
BAPTISM IN THE HOLY SPIRIT AND speaking in tongues
All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues[a] as the Spirit enabled them. Act 2:4
The day prophesied by Joel, John the Baptist and Jesus Christ marked the day that the Jews celebrated the feast of Pentecost. Fifty days after Easter, originally celebrated the dedication of the first fruits of the wheat harvest.
The tongues of fire and speaking in tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance was miraculous novelty announcing the baptism of the Spirit and the birth of the Christian church.
After the Upper Room, the believers in the city of Samaria experienced this blessing. Acts 8, 14-19; Gentiles in Cornelius' house were also the languages, Acts 10: 44-48, for the last book of Acts chapter 11 verses 1 to 7 tells of the disciples of Ephesus, who received the Holy Spirit. When Paul laid hands.
In the book of Acts there are four instances in which the Holy Spirit was shed. In three of the four cases - Upper Room, home of Cornelius, and Ephesus, shows that by receiving the Holy Spirit, believers spoke in tongues.
UPPER ROOM
All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues[a] as the Spirit enabled them.
HOME OF CORNELIUS
For they heard them speaking in tongues[a] and praising God. Act 10:46
EFESIUS
When Paul placed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in tongues[a] and prophesied.
Only in Samaria is not mentioned languages to receive the Holy Spirit:
"Then laid they their hands and they received the Holy Spirit"
Acts 8: 17
How to tell whether they received the Holy Spirit?Tongues of Fire.¡
The apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians chapter 14 speaking of languages, says:
For he who speaks in a tongue does not speak to men but to God, for no one understands, but in his spirit he speaks mysteries.
And in verse 8 he testifies to having received the baptism of the Holy Ghost with sign of speaking with other tongues, when he says:
"I thank God that I speak in tongues more than you all"
We find, then, that people who had a total experience with the Spirit of God, that is, they received the baptism of the Holy Spirit spoke in other tongues.
WORD FIRE
"He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. "Matthew 3:11, Luke 3:16
Matthew and Luke added to the expression of John the Baptist's words: FIRE
Then in the Upper Room: "They seemed to be tongues of fire."
Fire is a symbol of the Holy Spirit in the Bible and God's presence in a person or place.:
"He was the Angel of the Lord appeared in a flame of fire out of the bush,". Exodus 19:18
"Answered him with fire from heaven 1 Chronicles 21:26
He is like a refiner's fire "Malachi 3:2
"I will show wonders in heaven and on earth, blood and fire"
This prophecy of Joe, Peter used it in his first speech in the first outpouring of the Holy Spirit to verify that spiritual revival happened in the Upper Room was biblical and God.
Pentecostals recognize that a person has been immersed in the Holy Spirit when their lips sprout angelic languages and FIRE.
