Bible Note: Hi Justme, May I challenge you with a thought? The 'gift of the Holy Spirit' promised after baptism in Acts 2:38 is the indwelling of God. But the Holy Spirit baptism [Acts 2:1-4; Acts 10:44]is more of a sign and not part of the personal sanctification of the individual. The Holy Spirit baptism cames with miraculous signs like having the ability to speak a foreign language without ever studying. The sign of the Holy Spirit baptism on the day of Pentecost brought thousands together at one time to hear the Gospel. The sign of the Holy Spirit baptism at the home of Cornelius helped the Jews to understand that God intended to save Gentiles. Cornelius and his household wasn't saved until they got baptized.
