Baptism Of The Spirit (1 of 2)
Acts 2:1-4
Miles Seaborn
Introduction: Chapter 2 contains the Birth of the Church and the baptism and the filling of the Holy Spirit that ascended at the birth of the church.
My purpose: All kinds of interpretations, some true, some error. This is a sincere effort on my part with prayer and study not to minimize what others think or believe. Not to divide the body, but to clearly distinguish what this passage says, with love and conviction. Chapter 1: Preparation for the birth of the church. Chapter 2: We see it born Chapter 1: Disciples were waiting for the Holy Spirit Chapter 2: He comes Chapter 1: They were anticipating the birth of church Chapter 2: It is born Chapter 1: Disciples were equipped Chapter 2: Disciples were empowered Chapter 1: Disciples were held back Chapter 2: Disciples were sent forth
This is a tremendous transitional passage. It is one of the greatest changes that has occured in all the scripture. The end of the old age/the birth of the new age.
The old age "The Spirit is with you." The new age, "The Spirit is in you." Old age, men served God out of fear and consequences of the Law. New age, men served God out of love energized by the indwelling Holy Spirit.
Up until this time everything moved at God's time table. O.T. Giving of Law N.T. Birth of Jesus/his life/death/burial/resurrec- tion and now the birth of His church that was to carry the good news.
Baptism H.S./2
The definition of this change is found in John 7:37-39
"But this spoke he of the Spirit, whom they that believed on him should receive, for the Holy Spirit was not given because Christ was not yet glorified.'
The Spirit age could not happen until Jesus was glorified and ascended into heaven. Flow of history.
So- Chapter 1 is ascension of Jesus Christt Chapter 2 is the coming of the Holy Spirit. Church: Eccalsissa - called out ones. A mystery. The bride of Christ. A body. Body 1 - Christ; Body 2- Church.
