1 The Indwelling, the Baptism, and the Infilling of
The Holy Spirit

2 The Indwelling of the Holy Spirit
Every born-again believer has the Holy Spirit in measure through the new birth or at regeneration (John 3:5-8; John 4:14) Following Pentecost the Holy Spirit would begin a new ministry to believers that was unlike the old testament. The new ministry would be an indwelling of the Holy Spirit that would be permanent. (John 14: 16-17)

3 The Indwelling of the Holy Spirit
John 14: 16-17 “And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever—the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you”

4 The Work of the Holy Spirit in the New Birth
The following scriptures show the work of the Holy Spirit in the new birth John 3:5-8; Romans 8:16 “Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and THE SPIRIT. 6 Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. 7 You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be BORN AGAIN.’ 8 The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone BORN OF THE SPIRIT.” John 3:5-8

5 The Indwelling Presence of the Holy Spirit
Being born again is not just an experience; rather it is receiving the indwelling Presence of the Holy Spirit, a Divine Personality, who comes to make His home in us. The New Testament gives us three relations that God sustains toward man. God is FOR us (Romans 8:31) God is WITH us God is IN us (1 Cor. 3:16)

6 The Role of the Holy Spirit Within
The Holy Spirit WITHIN results in the fruit of the recreated spirit There are two groups of nine in connection with the work of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer 1. Nine fruit of the Spirit, which are a result of the Holy Spirit’s INDWELLING presence 2. Nine gifts of the spirit, which are a result of the Holy Spirit’s INFILLING power.

7 The Holy Spirit Within The Holy Spirit is our Helper and Comforter
John 14:16-18 The Holy Spirit is our Guide in the affairs of life John 16:13 Jeremiah 31:33 Romans 8:14 The Holy Spirit testifies of Jesus Christ John 15:26 John 14:26

8 The Baptism of the Holy Spirit
After the new birth there is also a work of the Holy Spirit that God desires to perform in the life of the believer subsequent or following the new-birth experience, and that is called the INFILLING of the Holy Spirit or the BAPTISM. God desires that everyone of His children to experience the dual working of the Spirit of God in their lives: The Holy Spirit within (indwelling) in the new birth. And the Holy Spirit upon (infilling) the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

9 Two Separate Experiences: Saul’s Conversion and Baptism in the Holy Spirit
Acts 9 records Saul’s baptism in the Holy Spirit. Also Acts 9 shows us that receiving salvation and receiving the Holy Spirit are two separate experiences Saul’s conversion on the Damascus road (Act9:1-9) Saul is saved before he interacts with Ananias Saul’s baptism in the Holy Spirit (Acts9:17)

10 Any Believer Can Receive the Baptism of the Holy Spirit
You do not have to wait or tarry to receive the Holy Spirit If you are blood washed, you are ready right now to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

11 Any Believer Can Receive the Baptism of the Holy Spirit
Luke 11:9-13 New International Version (NIV)    9 “So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.    11 “Which of you fathers, if your son asks for a fish, will give him a snake instead? 12 Or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? 13 If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him.”

12 Baptism of the Holy Spirit
“I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.” Luke 24:49 “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”Acts 1:8

13 Extreme Teachings Extreme Belief Explanation
If you are born again you have all the Holy Spirit– and you have all the Holy Spirit there is to have. You do have the Holy Spirit at the new birth, but this is not the same as the infilling of the Holy Spirit or the endowment of power from on High Speaking in tongues is evidence of salvation It is evidence of the infilling of the Holy Spirit The baptism of the Holy Spirit passed away with the last apostle. Only those who received the Holy Ghost by the laying of hands of the apostle could receive the Holy Spirit Acts 2:39 shows us clearly that the Holy Spirit is for all believers today as much as it was for believers in the Early Church.

14 The Holy Spirit Upon Us There is a work of the Holy Spirit that God desires in the lives of the believers: This is the Holy Spirit coming upon believers to endue them with power from on High Acts 1:5, 8, “ For John baptized with[a] water, but in a few days you will be baptized with[b] the Holy Spirit…But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

15 The Holy Spirit Upon: The Gateway Into the Supernatural
The fruit of the spirit is the result of the Holy Spirit’s indwelling presence. This is the first nine fold group of connections with the Holy Spirit. The indwelling of the Holy Spirit is for fruit bearing The second nine fold manifestations of the Holy Spirit are the gifts of the Spirit. These nine fold supernatural manifestations of the Holy Spirit is the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking tongues (1 Cor. 12:7-11). The infilling of the Holy Spirit is for service.

16 The Holy Spirit Upon: Being Filled with the Fullness of God
There is a greater measure of the Holy Spirit for believers to receive in the baptism of the Holy Spirit. God has given us the gift of the Holy Spirit so that believers might enter into all of the fullness of God. (Eph. 3:19, 20) Being filled with the Spirit is the door way into the manifestations of the gifts of the Spirit There is no way to get into the supernatural manifestations of the Holy Spirit than through the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

17 The Holy Spirit Upon: Power to Put Us Over in Life and In Supernatural Prayer
Ephesians 5:20 states that we should be filled with the fullness of God, “… according to the POWER that worketh in us” John 14:16 the Holy Spirit is our intercessor He will help us and give us guidance in our prayer life (Romans 8:26,27)
