487. Baptism and the Holy Spirit: What's the Connection?
from To Be The Church
Today we're following up on last week's baptism episode by addressing a listener question: What is the relationship between baptism and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit? The team reads from Acts 2:38 and Acts 19:1–7, discusses different theological backgrounds—including the former Assemblies of God roots of the church—and explains why Acts is descriptive rather than prescriptive. They emphasize that the indwelling of the Holy Spirit happens at conversion, before water baptism, and unpack the distinction between John's baptism and baptism in the name of Jesus. They also touch on 1 Peter 3 and the idea of baptism as an appeal to God for a good conscience.Contact us at [email protected] Media:Instagram.com/tobethechurchfacebook.com/tobethechurchyoutube.com/tobethechurch
