Study Notes
Spirit Baptism and Conversion
- There is only one class of believers, with no distinction between baptized and unbaptized believers.
- Baptism occurs at conversion, and it is a one-time event.
- Believers are placed into the body by Spirit baptism, and they are baptized by the Spirit at the moment of regeneration, sealing, indwelling, and redemption.
Special Incidents of Spirit Baptism
- Acts 2 (Pentecost), Acts 8 (Samaritans), Acts 10 (Gentiles), and Acts 19 (Disciples of John) are special incidents of Spirit baptism.
- These incidents are not a pattern for every church or individual believer.
- They were special events that occurred during the transition from the Old Covenant to the New Covenant.
Baptism and the Body of Christ
- Baptism is not repeated; it is a one-time event that occurs at conversion.
- There is no command in the New Testament to search for the baptism of the Spirit.
- Believers are baptized by the Spirit at conversion and become part of the body of Christ.
Context of Spirit Baptism
- The events of Acts 2, Acts 8, Acts 10, and Acts 19 are unique and are not meant to be repeated.
- The special incidents of Spirit baptism are locked into specific historical situations.
- The baptism of the Spirit is not something that believers need to pray for or seek after.
The Ministry of the Spirit
- The Spirit is received by believers at conversion.
- The baptism of the Spirit is not a secondary experience, but rather an initial experience that occurs at conversion.
- There is no necessity for believers to pray for the baptism of the Spirit, as they have already received it at conversion.
