Bible Question:
In my seeking and searchng to be a Man of God, A Man after the heart of God. I found verse after verse in the new testiment about being baptized in the Holy Ghost. As well as the gifts of the Holy Ghost. My question is who baptizes us in the Holy Ghost and what are the gifts of the Holy Ghost. I see in John 20:22 where John breathed on them and said unto them Receive ye the Holy Ghost. Also in Acts 19:6 Paul laid hands on them and the Holy Ghost came on them. And it seems that the gift of the Holy Ghost in this instance was speaking in tongues and prophesied. What I've gotten from my study and writing you right now is that the gift of the Holy Ghost is power to speak on to your mountians, to have power over the enemy of our souls. If that is the case please guide me to how I may be baptized in the Holy Ghost that I will not be whiped time in again in areas I should have command over. ASuba jaasyl@Hotmail.com |
Bible Answer: a pastor baptises in the Holy Ghost, "i now baptise you in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost"(than they are submurged in water or "sprinkeled") as far as "gifts" they are spiritual gifts, and the only way we can have them is to be one with God their are many gifts availble but only certan ones apply to specific people, the way you find out is by takeing the spiritual gift 'test', to be baptized isnt saying "hey im christian now because i got baptized" its more of a clensing of our sins PUBLICLY and stateing our faith is with the kingdom of God to get a more indepth discussion about it your best bet is to talk to your pastor, he could provide the best awnser for you any who i hope this helped |
