The Holy Spirit is God. He gifts people according to His will. He came in power in the investment of Christ as the substantiation as Christ was headed to the cate to be tempted at the launch of His ministry He came in power. So that the Spirit is the Spirit of power. Also as Christ was speaking to His votaries after His rejuvenation He promised to bring the bedcover. Now this kind of pledge was filled with further of the virtuousness of God than had ever been endured by any convert. This was a pledge of power to be given to the 12. one to join them. So Christ was sealed with the Holy Spirit of power and also He gave His votaries this seal. or evidence at Pentecost. I don't believe in the Attractive view of the alternate investment. First i do new testament believe this is a harmonious experience. It's rigorously an experience and doesn't inescapably have anything to do with the position of sanctification of a religionist. But it does increase the speed of the sanctification process. There are numerous attestations of the investment of Christ giving the Spirit other than tongues. He came in colorful ways to the church in acts and there were different instantiations.
Occasionally there was prognosticating the future. Occasionally there was speaking a word of God. Occasionally there was speaking the word in power. Occasionally there were speeches-i believe these were other languages but they came in the way of rapturous experience and was like a new word. But the Spirit says that in the last days He'll be poured out and men will be speaking in tongues. prophesying .etc. So that when the Spirit was coming in this way. He was manifested in a way that He doesn't manifest in deliverance. He comes in power and also all of the people are passing this profound experience as if there was a rain of God coming down on a group. And also there was this profound concinnity that attended this reviving of the Spirit.
Everyone looked as if they were drunk on wine. but it was the Spirit coming down with power and also all the people were passing this power that didn't come from in but it was commodity that come on them and also they were incontinently invested with this revelry and this concinnity. Its as if the Spirit came as He conscious and heaven came down upon them in the crowd.
These are the veritably origins of the church. How could there be this united strength without the whole cannon formed? It was this investment of the Spirit. They were swallowed up in a noble concinnity that was concentrated on the apostles doctrine. the fellowship. breaking of bread. But they were passing this deep revelry and it was accompanied with all of these different instantiations. That's why there were sweats to copy the instantiations of the Spirit.This also has happed at different times in post biblical church history. You have this in wales and also it spread to England. also the United States in the great awakening.
