Holy Spirit baptism was miraculous in nature and was only recorded twice in the New Testament. It occurred once on the day of Pentecost on the apostles and then on the household of Cornelius.

The miraculous gifts were given by the will of Holy Spirit through the laying on hands by the apostles (1 Cor. 12:11; Acts 8:18).

The purpose of the miracles and signs in the first century was to show that this newly revealed Word was from God (Mk. 16:20). When the Word of God was fully revealed the miracles ceased because they had served their purpose (1 Cor. 13:8-13; Eph. 4:11-13; Jude 1:3).

Under the new covenant, if we obey the Word of God, we have been promised the indwelling of the Holy Spirit as a seal, which marks us as children of God.

The Holy Spirit works through Word today and does not work directly on the heart of man.
