Our Mission: Leading people into a growing relationship with Jesus

Understand Baptisms
“5 John truly baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”… 8 But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be [a]witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” Acts 1:5,8 (NKJV)

1. UNDERSTAND THE _____________________

• Baptized into the ________________________________-

Baptized by the Holy Spirit – ________________________

For by one Spirit we all were immersed and mingled into one single body. And no matter our status – whether we are Jews or non-Jews, oppressed or free – we are all privileged to drink deeply of the same Holy Spirit. 1 Corinthians 12:13 (TPT)

• Baptized in __________________ –

Baptized by a believer

Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Matthew 28:19 (NLT)

• Baptized with/in the __________________________ –

Baptized by Jesus

“I baptize with water those who repent of their sins and turn to God. But someone is coming soon who is greater than I am – so much greater that I’m not worthy even to be His slave and carry His sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.” Matthew 3:11 (NLT)

When he says, ‘You will be baptized with the Holy Spirit,’ he means you will receive extraordinary power for Christ-exalting ministry. Peter replied, “Each of you must repent of your sins and turn to God, and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. Then you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” Acts 2:38 (NLT)

Next Step

1. Ask God to __________________________________________ within this
pattern so that you may more intimately connect and serve Him.

2. Ask for a _____________________________________

The kind of empowering that we receive in the baptism of the Holy Spirit is an experience that we need again and again.

Don’t be drunk with wine, because that will ruin your life. Instead,
be filled with the Holy Spirit, Ephesians 5:18 (NLT)
