The book of Acts says they came in large numbers and got baptised in the holy spirit.
No. He was with it always! He is God!
YES!ANSWER:I do not know if you have to be baptised to be a Baptist or not, but you do have to be baptised before you can enter into the Kingdom of Heaven. This is not a water baptism, but of the Living Waters and of the Holy Spirit. (njbsam)
At Baptism, the time when you make a public stand for your faith in Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit indwells you. Baptism isn't just a rite with water - it is the reception of the Holy Spirit. When you receive Christ you also receive his Spirit in your heart.
.Roman Catholic AnswerA person first receives the Holy Spirit in Baptism. Adults preparing for baptism are called catechumens. Those who are baptised are now Christians.
The grace of the sacrament, the Holy Spirit, a welcome to the church, freedom from original sin, and the hope of evrerlasting life.
The holy spirit came in the form of the dove, and a voice said This is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased.
To wash away all sins.....Baptism today stands for a renewal for the spirit........being baptised means you are one with the father the son and the holy spirit.
The dove is the symbol of the Holy Spirit. At the baptism of Jesus by John the Baptist, the Holy Spirit descended on him in the form of a dove, so the dove is used at both baptisms and confirmation.
If you feel strange when you are baptised it could be the result of nervous tension, knowing this to be a life-changing decision on your part, or it could be the Holy Spirit. If you are calm, it could even be that you will feel no different.
You are baptised as a Christian. Despite what many think, baptism (in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit) is a Christian sacrament and not a denominational one. That is to say, if you are baptised then you are baptised a Christian and not a Catholic, Anglican, Methodist or even a Baptist.
You need to be baptised by a priest
