| IV. About the Holy Spirit | |||||||||||||
(1) We believe the Holy Spirit is the divine Administrator for Jesus Christ in the churches (Luke 24:49; John 14:16,17; Acts 1:4,5,8; Acts 2:1-4; Revelation 1:10; 22:17). (2) We believe that the Holy Spirit is a divine person equal with God the Father and God the Son, and of the same nature; that He was active in creation of all things; that Jesus Christ baptized the believers in the Holy Spirit on the Day of Pentecost only once and cannot be repeated. (Genesis 1:2; Judges 14:6; Job 26:13; Psalms 51:11; 139:7; Isaiah 61:1-3; Joel 2:28-32; Matthew 1:18; Matthew 3:16; Matthew 4:1; Matthew 12:28-32; Matthew 28:19; Mark 1:10; Luke 1:35; Luke 4:1,18,19; Luke 11:13; Luke 12:12; Acts 5:3,4; Acts 2:1-4,38; Acts 1:8; Acts 4:31; Acts 6:3; Acts 7:55; Acts 8:17,39; Acts 10:44; Acts 15:28; Acts 16:6; Acts 19:1-6; I Corinthians 2:10-14; I Corinthians 3:16; I Corinthians 12:3-11;13; Galatians 4:6; Ephesians 1:13,14; Ephesians 4:30; Ephesians 5:18; I Thessalonians 5:19; I Timothy 3:16; 4:1; II Timothy 1:14; I Timothy 3:16; Hebrews 9:8,14; I Peter 1:21; I John 4:13; 5:6,7). (3) We believe that the Holy Spirit fills, teaches, sanctifies and helps the believer (John 14:16,17,26; John 15:26; John 16:7,14; Acts 1:16; Acts 4:8; Acts 7:31; Acts 8:29; Acts 10:19, Acts 13:2; Acts 20:28; Acts 9:31; Romans 8;16,26,27; Romans 13:13,16,19,30; ;I Peter 3:18). |
