7 Baptized with the Spirit The Word by seers or sibyls told, In groves of oak, or fares of gold, Still floats upon the morning wind, Still whispers to the willing mind. One accent of the Holy Ghost The heedless world hath never lost. Ralph Waldo Emerson, The Problem
8 Baptized with the Spirit Emerson s poetry signaled an important shift in American religious thought, away from the words of Scripture toward natural spirituality. Human beings reveal strange inner contrasts. We waver between the emotional and the empirical. At times we just want to feel things, and at times we want definitely to know things. Sometimes we want an internal experience, and sometimes we want external proof. Unfortunately, these otherwise wonderful impulses as with all human inclinations can confuse or mislead.
9 Baptized with the Spirit Can you think of times when you may have ignored what seemed obviously to be true just because it didn t feel right?
10 Baptized with the Spirit Are there some instances when it may be inappropriate to demand hard evidence for something?
11 The Promised Spirit Joel 2:28 29 "And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days.
12 The Promised Spirit What promise does the Lord give in Joel?
13 The Promised Spirit What promise does the Lord give in Joel? John 7:39 By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.
14 The Promised Spirit For whom is this promise made? John 7:39 By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.
15 The Promised Spirit When was God s promise fulfilled? John 7:39 By this he meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in him were later to receive. Up to that time the Spirit had not been given, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.
16 The Promised Spirit Mark 1:8 I baptize you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit. 1 Corinthians 12:13 For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. What activity or event is mentioned in each passage? Who is involved in each?
17 The Promised Spirit While some may not even realize they have been baptized with the Spirit (see 1 Corinthians 3:16), and while some may show little evidence of the Spirit as was the case in the carnal Corinthian church Paul writes quite emphatically that if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ (Romans 8:9). That is, if one has not received the Spirit, one is not a Christian.
18 The Promised Spirit 1 Corinthians 3:16 Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you?
19 The Promised Spirit Acts 10:43 44 All the prophets testify about him that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name." While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit came on all who heard the message. Galatians 3:2 I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by observing the law, or by believing what you heard?
20 The Promised Spirit By what means is the Holy Spirit received?
21 The Promised Spirit Romans 8:9 11 You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ. But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness. And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit, who lives in you.
22 The Promised Spirit 1 Corinthians 12:3 Therefore I tell you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus be cursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit.
23 The Promised Spirit How do these passages describe the relationship between Christ and the Holy Spirit? Are the two separable?
24 The Promised Spirit Romans 6:3 4 Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.
25 The Promised Spirit 1 Peter 3:21 and this water symbolizes baptism that now saves you also not the removal of dirt from the body but the pledge of a good conscience toward God. It saves you by the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
26 The Promised Spirit How do these passages describe the relationship between Christ and Baptism? Are the two separable?
27 The Promised Spirit Ephesians 4:3 6 Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit just as you were called to one hope when you were called Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.
28 The Promised Spirit Matthew 16:4 A wicked and adulterous generation looks for a miraculous sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah." Jesus then left them and went away.
29 The Promised Spirit 1 Corinthians 1:22 23 Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles,
30 The Promised Spirit How might such passages serve to warn the church against placing an undue emphasis on a second baptism in the Spirit?
31 The Promised Spirit While Paul makes clear that the church recognizes only one Baptism, the value of this Baptism sometimes comes into question if the Spirit s presence and activity are not always or explicitly felt and seen.
32 The Promised Spirit What is often sought is an obvious manifestation of the Spirit, such as prophesying, speaking in tongues, or healing. Against placing too much confidence in one s senses, however, both Jesus and Paul warn that signs are not to be demanded.
33 Comforting Spirit Even before the birth of His Son, God promised that His Spirit would be poured out on all people. The promise of Joel, as with all Old Testament prophecies, has been fulfilled in Christ. It was He who sent the Spirit from His Father on Pentecost, and it is He whose name we are baptized into even today
34 Comforting Spirit Joel 2:28 29 "And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days.
35 Comforting Spirit What encouragement is found in knowing that God s Old Testament promise has been fulfilled?
36 Comforting Spirit What consolation do you take in knowing that all Christians even those as sin-steeped as the Corinthians have been baptized in the Spirit?
37 Comforting Spirit Matthew 28:19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
38 Comforting Spirit Matthew 28:19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
39 Comforting Spirit What comfort may it provide to know you have not been baptized in the Spirit alone, but into the name of the Trinity itself: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit?
40 Life in the Spirit Quite frequently Christians do not feel holy inwardly. Just as often we appear outwardly unholy. We rejoice, therefore, to be assured that our holiness is not a matter of internal feelings or external evidence. Personal holiness rests upon God s Word and Spirit having, in our Baptism, declared and made it true.
41 Life in the Spirit What loving response could you give to those who might downplay your Baptism with water and the Word by asking, Yes, but have you been baptized with the Holy Spirit?
42 Life in the Spirit In your daily devotional life, what can you do to acknowledge and give thanks for the great blessings the Spirit has bestowed on you in your Baptism?
43 Baptized into Your Name Most Holy Baptized into your name most holy, O Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, I claim a place, though weak and lowly, Among your seed, your chosen host. Buried with Christ and dead to sin, I have your Spirit now within.
44 Baptized into Your Name Most Holy My loving Father, here you take me Hence forth to be your child and heir; My faithful Savior, here you make me The fruit of all your sorrows share; O Holy Ghost, you comfort me Though threatening clouds around I see.
45 Baptized into Your Name Most Holy O faithful God, you never fail me; Your covenant surely will abide. Let not eternal death assail me Should I transgress it on my side! Have mercy when I come defiled; Forgive, lift up, restore your child.
46 Baptized into Your Name Most Holy All that I am and love most dearly, Receive it all, O Lord, from me. Oh, let me make my vows sincerely, And help me your own child to be! Let nothing that I am or own Serve any will but yours alone.
