Fulfilment of the promise of God
and of Christ in giving the Spirit Baptism to men.
Luke 24:49
Behold, I send the Promise of My
Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with
power from on high.”
John 1:33
I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water
said to me, ‘Upon whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him,
this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’
John 7:37-39
On the last day, that great day
of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him
come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of
his heart will flow rivers of living water.” But this He spoke concerning the
Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not
yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
John 14: 16-17
And I will pray the Father, and
He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— the Spirit
of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows
Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.
John 14:26
But the Helper, the Holy Spirit,
whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring
to your remembrance all things that I said to you.
John 15:26
But when the Helper comes, whom I
shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the
Father, He will testify of Me.
Acts 1:4-8
And being assembled together with
them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the
Promise of the Father, “which,” He said, “you have heard from Me; for John
truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not
many days from now.” Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him,
saying, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?”
And He
said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has
put in His own authority. But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has
come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea
and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”
