There’s been a great deal of speculation and argument in the Christian church over the centuries about what the “baptism of the Holy Spirit” means. It is clear from the few references in Scripture that it deals with the Holy Spirit in the life of a person who has been born again. Introduction

Read 1 Corinthians 12:1-13. What point is Paul making here, especially in verse 13? Question 1

How important is it that the Holy Spirit dwells in us? Rom. 8:9. Question 2

What is your understanding of what it means to be baptized in the Holy Spirit? If someone were to ask, “Have you been baptized in the Holy Spirit?” how would you respond? Key Thought

“Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?” (Acts 2:37).

Read 2 Corinthians 7: In your own words write what Paul is saying here and how it relates to the experience of the Jews at Pentecost. Question 3

How has the Holy Spirit brought conviction to your heart? What kind of feelings did you have? How has the Spirit been able to use this conviction toward your own spiritual growth? How has the Holy Spirit brought conviction to your heart? What kind of feelings did you have? How has the Spirit been able to use this conviction toward your own spiritual growth? Key Thought

“Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost” (Acts 2:38).

Question 4 Read Romans 2:4, along with John 15:26 and 16:13, 14. How do these texts help us understand the role of the Holy Spirit in bringing us repentance?

Key Thought Write out a paragraph explaining your own experience with repentance.Where were you when you first felt conviction? What Was your immediate reaction? How did you finally respond? What changes took place? Be prepared to share your response with the class.? Write out a paragraph explaining your own experience with repentance.Where were you when you first felt conviction? What Was your immediate reaction? How did you finally respond? What changes took place? Be prepared to share your response with the class.?

Question 5 Read again Acts 2:37, the reaction of these Jews to Peter’s witness. What was their response? Compare this response with Saul’s response (Acts 9:5, 6). In both cases, what immediate evidence shows that their conversion was genuine?

Question 6 Look up the following texts. What do they tell us about the role of the Spirit and obedience? Acts 16:7; Gal. 5:5,6; 5: Pet.1:2 Look up the following texts. What do they tell us about the role of the Spirit and obedience? Acts 16:7; Gal. 5:5,6; 5: Pet.1:2

Question 7 Read Galatians 3:1-11. What issue is Paul addressing here? What concern does he express for the Galatians? Note particularly the role he gives to the Spirit in these texts.

Key Thought What are some of the subtle traps of legalism we can easily fall into? How can we protect ourselves from these traps?

1. Share your answers to Tuesday’s final question with the class. What can you learn from one another’s responses?

2.As a class, read together Luke 11: Then talk about what it was like when you gave someone you cared about a gift that you knew they would really like. How did it make you feel? Why were you so eager to give it? What good would it do for the person you gave it to? With those thoughts in mind, what can we learn about the promise of the Holy Spirit offered to us?

3.As a class, see whether you can get some time before the lesson study to prepare a small presentation for Sabbath School on what the “baptism of the Holy Spirit” means. Anticipate as much as possible beforehand what questions people in the church might have regarding this topic and be prepared to answer them.

Summary The Holy Spirit works to strengthen our relationship with God by continually showing us our need of salvation and faith. As we allow Him to use us for God’s glory, various spiritual gifts will be manifest in our lives.
