Can I get a Witness? (3)

God has chosen us to be his witnesses. At our Jobs, in our families, in our schools, in our communities, in our social clubs, in our fraternities and sororities, at the store, at the mall, at the bar, on the court, on the field, in every place God sends you we are God’s chosen servants to be witnesses on his behalf.

The Promise (v.4)

The promise was made by in the book of Joel that in the last days I will pour out my Spirit upon humanity.

Jesus promised that he would not leave us orphans.

John’s Baptism-

The Presence (v.5)

Baptism of the Holy Spirit-The baptism of the Holy Spirit may be defined as that work whereby the Spirit of God places the believer into union with Christ and into union with other believers in the body of Christ at the moment of salvation.

Things are different for the believer now than they were for the saints of the Old Testament.

• Is it time? Is 32:15-20, Ezekiel 39:28-29, Joel 2:28-31, Zech 12:8-10

• Fixed. There is a fixed date.
