| 0:00.0 | When I was a new Christian, I was going to a church that taught that, okay, you're a believer in Jesus. |
| 0:07.3 | You've been baptized. |
| 0:08.7 | You've been justified. |
| 0:10.3 | But have you been baptized in the Holy Spirit? |
| 0:14.5 | In other words, the baptism of the Holy Spirit was viewed as something that was separate, distinct from being born again, just being a Christian. So you have |
| 0:21.8 | some Christians who are baptized in the Holy Spirit. And then you have some Christians, many Christians |
| 0:26.2 | who aren't baptized in the Holy Spirit. And so the Church prayed for me, you know, laid hands on me |
| 0:31.2 | to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit. And often, at least what was taught there was, you know, |
| 0:36.4 | when you're baptized in the Holy Spirit, |
| 0:38.9 | you might receive these miraculous gifts from the Lord, gifts like the gift of tongues that Paul |

| 1:27.4 | And he was one of the ones |
| 1:28.2 | who taught early on that there's this clear distinction between being born again, you know, |
| 1:34.2 | justified, sanctified as a follower of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the baptism of the Holy Spirit. |
| 1:41.7 | And so this is something, the baptism of the Holy Spirit is something that happens later in your Christian life that you pursue. And so he distinguished between those two things. And that, that theology, that doctrine, really gains steam. And you see it in a lot of more charismatic churches today. You need to be baptized in the Holy Spirit. You might not be baptized in the Holy Spirit, |
| 2:01.6 | even if you're a believer in Jesus. Although you have the Holy Spirit in one sense, you're sealed with the |
