Come Holy SpiritPart 3

It will come about after this that I will pour out My Spirit (Ruwach) on all mankind; And your sons and daughters will prophesy, Your old men will dream dreams, Your young men will see visions.

Even on the male and female servants I will pour out My Spirit (Ruwach) in those days. Joel 2:28-29 (NAS)

3. Jesus answered and said to him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot seesee the kingdom of God." 4. Nicodemus said to Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born, can he?" 5. Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enterenter into the kingdom of God.

6. “ That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7. "Do not be amazed that I said to you, 'You must be born again. 8. “ The wind blows where it wishes and you hear the sound of it, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going; so is everyone who is born of the Spirit."

There is a difference between “seeing” the Kingdom and “entering" the Kingdom .

Many people get a glimpse, but they are unable to enter into it.

“unless one is born again he cannot seesee the kingdom of God”. (John 3:3)

“unless one is born of water and the Spirit he cannot enter enter into the kingdom of God”.

(John 3:5)

Salvation enables one to “see” (or perceive) the Kingdom of God and the principles of the Kingdom living, but it is the “Baptism in “Baptism in the Holy Spirit”the Holy Spirit” that empowers the believers to enter in experientially.

The Question: What is the nature of a genuine New Testament experience of being Baptism in the Holy Spirit?

Gathering them together, He commanded them not to leave Jerusalem, but to wait for what the Father had promised, "Which," He said, "you heard of from Me; for John baptized with water, but you but you will be baptized with the Holy will be baptized with the Holy Spirit Spirit not many days from now."

"For the promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off, as many as the Lord our God will call to Himself."

38. "He who believesbelieves in Me, as the Scripture said, 'From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.'"
