First, Acts should be viewed primarily as a document of history. Acts spans some 30 years of history in a brief 28 chapters, in which events are retold with infrequent effort to attach doctrinal significance. This does not imply that Acts is of no value for teaching and learning about God and His plan of salvation. Rather we must conclude that any teaching which is merely implied from historical analogy must always be confirmed in clear teaching from other passages of Scripture. The revelation of Acts does not stand alone, for by God’s grace we have the panoply of Scripture which gives testimony as to how we should teach and preach the Baptism in the Holy Spirit.
