Review
Part 1 - The Promise of the Father
The Holy Spirit was promised for the last days
Part 2 - The Holy Spirit and the Power
The Holy Spirit came with power for witnessing
The power was demonstrated in (1.) speaking in other tongues; (2.) signs and wonders; and (3.) endurance in the midst of trials and persecution.
Part 3 - Main Arguments
What is the role of the Holy in the Church?
How is the presence of the Holy Spirit in the church demonstrated?
The Holy Spirit as the “Helper”
When Jesus announced the coming of the Holy Spirit, He also described its working.
The Holy Spirit will abide forever.
to “be” - to exist, to happen
“to be” means to exist as “helper who goes with you”
to exist as “helper who goes with you”
Helper - grk. parakletos, one called alongside to help
translated - comforter, advocate, helper
The Holy Spirit will teach.
teach - grk. didasko, instruct, teach; to impart skills or knowledge
John 14.26
Teacher - grk. didaskalos
The Holy Spirit will bear witness.
bear witness - grk. martyreo, to solemnly assert something by offering firsthand authentication to the fact
The Holy Spirit is the living and true witness to Jesus Christ - His life, death, resurrection and work in heaven
The Holy Spirit will guide.
guide - grk. hodegeo, to be a guiding or motivating force for someone’s actions
The Holy Spirit will motivate the believers to receive and obey the truth that the Holy Spirit itself will reveal to them.
WHAT’S THE POINT?
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS NOT MERELY PRESENT IN THE LIFE OF THE BELIEVER, BUT AN ACTIVE COMPANION IN HIS/HER LIFE!
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS WITH US TO ACCOMPANY US IN THIS LIFE, AS WELL AS TO TEACH AND TO GUIDE US INTO ALL THINGS TRUE AND RIGHT.
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS WITH US TO TEACH AND TO GUIDE US INTO ALL THINGS TRUE AND RIGHT.
The Outpouring at Pentecost
What happened at Pentecost?
The event on the day of Pentecost was both a “baptism” and a “filling” of the Holy Spirit for the church.
Jesus said they will be baptized with the Holy Spirit soon -
Baptism - immersion; used as initiation rite for joining or becoming part of a group
On this day they were “filled” with the Holy Spirit.
Fill - grk. pimplemi, to be supplied generously
from grk. pleroo, to be full
WHAT’S THE POINT?
BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS TWO APPLICATIONS:
THE INITIAL EXPERIENCE OF BEING FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT.
BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE INITIAL EXPERIENCE OF BEING FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT.
THE GIVING OUT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT TO AS MANY AS WILL BELIEVE THROUGHOUT THE DISPENSATION.
THE FILLING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE EXPERIENCE OF HAVING ONE’S WHOLE BEING SATURATED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT, RESULTING IN CERTAIN PHYSICAL MANIFESTATIONS.
The Holy Spirit filled both the house and the people.
Verse 2 - it filled the entire house
Verse 2 - they were all filled with the Holy Spirit
Acts 4.
See also -
The filling of the Holy Spirit was both “seen” and “heard” by the public.
,
Acts 2.
Peter stood up and explained to the public what was happening.
Acts 2.33-34
WHAT’S THE POINT?
THE FILLING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT IS NOT A SILENT EXPERIENCE NOR AN INVISIBLE EVENT!
The Holy Spirit-filled People
The Church demonstrated how a Spirit-filled church walks
They boldly proclaimed and defended the gospel in every occasion
at Pentecost -
before the rulers of Israel -
after being persecuted -
They boldly rebuked the enemies of the faith
Elymas the magician -
the Jews who stirred up persecution against Paul and Barnabas -
They helped the apostles in the ministry
the 7 “deacons” -
Barnabas in Antioch -
The Church moved under the direction of the Holy Spirit
When they began their missionary works -
When they needed wise judgment concerning the Gentile believers -
When they appointed overseers -
WHAT’S THE POINT?
A CHURCH THAT IS FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL NOT BE INVISIBLE TO THE PUBLIC FOR LONG.
THE HOLY SPIRIT HIMSELF WILL DRIVE YOU OUT OF YOUR HIDING INTO THE PUBLIC EYE.
A SPIRIT-FILLED CHURCH IS FOCUSED ON THE WORK OF MINISTRY AND NOT ON SOCIAL OCCASIONS AND GATHERINGS.
THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL NOT LEAD THE CHURCH TO SOCIAL ACTIVITIES AND EVENTS.
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS CONCERNED WITH (1) TEACHING THE CHURCH, AND (2) GUIDING THE CHURCH INTO ALL TRUTH.
TEACHING THE CHURCH
GUIDING THE CHURCH INTO ALL TRUTH
Conclusion
THE TRUE CHURCH IS ONE THAT IS UNDER THE DIRECTION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL MANIFEST HIMSELF CORPORATELY AS WELL AS INDIVIDUALLY
THE GATHERING OF THE BELIEVERS IS THE PLACE TO BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT.
THE SPIRIT-FILLED CHURCH WILL NOT HIDE BEHIND THE WALLS OF A CHURCH BUILDING.
SHE IS NOT AFRAID TO STEP OUT INTO PUBLIC EYES AND BOLDLY PROCLAIM CHRIST!
