Every
so often the Spirit prophesied to a believer.At other times the He
accompanied the word of God with power.They declared the word in power.
Periodically, they spoke in tongues. I believe these represent other
languages.He entered the way of ecstatic experience in a convincing
word.
The Spirit says
that in the last days He will be poured out and men will be speaking in
tongues, prophesying, etc. The Spirit came in this extraordinary
presence different from the way He indwells saints. He comes in power
and then all of the saints are enjoying this profound experience like
rain falling down on the assembly. Profound unity attended the reviving
of the Spirit.
Everyone
looked as if they were consumed with wine. The Spirit coming down with
power and the people enjoyed the experience that did not come from
within themselves. But it was something that come on them and they
promptly began rejoicing and were unified. The Spirit came as He willed
resulted in ecstatic experience of tongues of fire settling on them. The
Spirit descended on the Church and supplied them with power as He had
done in the Baptism of Christ. Consequently, they were baptized into the
church.
