In this episode of The Hacka Podcast, host Greg Hackathorn is joined once again by Evangelist Simeon Costa, creator of Life Studies. Together, they explore one of the most debated questions in Christianity — When does a believer receive the Holy Spirit?

From Acts 2 to Romans 10, Greg and Simeon trace the biblical, historical, and theological roots of the new birth experience. They unpack how early church history, Catholic tradition, and the Reformation shaped modern interpretations of salvation — and why the Apostolic pattern of repentance, baptism in Jesus’ Name, and infilling of the Holy Spirit remains vital today.

If you’ve ever wondered about faith, grace, and the moment of spiritual transformation, this episode will challenge and deepen your understanding of what it truly means to be born again.
