BAPTISM OF THE SPIRIT OF GOD

Posted by George Soepboer Sr

Water baptism is necessary if we wish to have our sins

removed by God, for without water baptism there is no

forgiveness of our sins by God.

( Acts 2:37-39 ).

However, when we are baptized water then we do not

receive the Holy Spirit within of God,

for that gift will only be ours if we pray personal to God

for the indwelling of the Holy Spirit of God.

We can all be baptized with water by the will of people and

through people for that is binding by God,

However, the Baptism of the Holy Spirit is a gift from God

to anyone who humbly submits to God and prays to God for

the indwelling of the Holy Spirit of God.

( Luke 11:9-13 ).

Water baptism is required by God to become part of God,

for the love of God is of no benefit to us without water baptism

for the forgiveness of our sins by God,

( Acts 22-16 ).

However, water baptism is no benefit to us if we do not receive

the Holy Spirit within of God,

for baptism of the Holy Spirit of God is necessary

to live for God and live in fullness on the world with God.

( Romans 8:14 ).

We must be baptized with water and we must receive the

indwelling of the Spirit of God to be complete in God.

( John 3:3-6 ).

When we have received the Holy Spirit within of God then

God lives within us, for the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God.

( 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 )( 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 )

( 2 Corinthians 6:16-17 ).

When we have the Spirit living within us of God then we

will hear the voice within us of God.

( John 14:26 )( John 16:12-15 )( 1 John 2:26-27 ).

When we have received the Spirit within us God then we must

live by the Spirit of God, for only then do we live for God.

( Romans 8:4-14 ).
