"Rest Your Faith In God's Promises"


       We are introduced to the
Spirit Baptism in the declaration, "I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance; but .... he (Christ) shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire" (Matt. 3:11).Christ refers to the save event in (Acts 1:5). From such references we gather the thought that while man baptizes with water, God baptizes with the Holy Ghost.
       We look upon the baptism with
the Holy Ghost as the saving baptism, and upon water baptism as being typical of it; for "by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body"
(1Cor. 12:13).
Its importance is evident: (1) because it is by the Spirit that we are "all baptized into one body;" (2) because of its frequent mention in the activities of the apostolic Church; (3) because of the prominence given it by the disciples in their work.
      
It is the baptism that saves. "By one Spirit are we all baptized into one body" (1Cor. 12:13). "Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he can not enter into the kingdom of God" (John 3:5). Read also (Ezek. 36:25-27; John 6:63;
Heb. 12:14).
