Subject: Is baptism done only once? |
Bible Note: Acts 19 is a case of those who had received John's baptism of repentance, but had not believed in Christ yet. Notice the water baptism, signaling that they had joined the church. It was at that point that they received the Holy Spirit. Now look at all the other examples of post-Penetcost conversions. After Penetcost, ALL of them receive the Spirit upon conversion. You can say "no one receives the baptism of the Holy Spirit at salvation." And I will continue to point out that that view is a 20th-century novelty that has no basis in Scripture. --Joe! |
