Some Christians are quite into the Holy Spirit. Some Christians act like they don’t even know there is a Holy Spirit. In this week’s message in Acts 19:1-10, we’ll see a small group of believers who had no idea who or what the Holy Spirit was. It provides us with an opportunity to see how we do at recognizing and inviting the Holy Spirit’s presence and work in and through our lives. This message will be a primer on our pneumatology, the study of the Holy Spirit.

Message: 51 – There is a Holy Spirit

Harvest Bible Chapel

Text: Acts 19:1-10

June 2, 2024

There is a Holy Spirit who…

…indwells me at conversion (v. 1-2)

1 Corinthians 12:13

John 3:5

Romans 6:3–4

…blesses me through baptism (v. 3-5)

…empowers me in serving (v. 6-7)

As throughout Acts, there is no set pattern. The Spirit came at various times and in various ways. What is consistent is that the Spirit is always a vital part of one’s initial commitment to Christ and a mark of every believer.

1 Corinthians 12:7

The essence of being baptized with the Holy Spirit is when a person, who is already a believer, receives extraordinary spiritual power for Christ-exalting ministry.
