Receive Him

from The Leader’s Notebook with Dr. Mark Rutland Hosted by Dr. Mark Rutland

In this episode of The Leader’s Notebook (Ep. 300), I walk through the sweeping biblical story of the Holy Spirit, from Genesis to Pentecost and beyond. We look at the Spirit who brooded over creation, empowered prophets and kings, and was promised in Joel, revealed by Jesus, and poured out in Acts. This is not a new doctrine or a modern movement, but the living Spirit of God at work across all Scripture. From Joel 2, John 20, and Acts 2, we trace the Spirit’s person and power through the Word of God. I also challenge every believer to understand that life in the Spirit is not optional equipment for a few, but essential for the whole Church. The same Holy Spirit who filled the upper room still fills and empowers believers today. When He moves, our calling is simple: receive. Leaders especially must live and serve in the strength only the Spirit provides. – Dr. Mark Rutland Chapters (00:00:03) - The Leaders Notebook (00:00:25) - A Biblical Concept of the Holy Spirit (00:02:59) - John's Gospel, The Holy Spirit (00:12:44) - When Messiah comes, the Holy Spirit will pour out on all flesh (00:19:59) - Prophecies of the Jews (00:22:37) - The Feast of Pentecost (00:26:49) - Receive the Holy Spirit (00:36:37) - The Crucified Peter and the (00:42:58) - Receiving the Holy Spirit (00:49:27) - Receive the Holy Spirit in Water Baptism (00:56:31) - Mark Rutland on the Baptism of the Holy Spirit
