Groups 7,8 and 9 will look TRUTH Baptism by the Spirit is a work of God to be un- derstood by faith. Every believer in Christ is baptized by the Spirit, I Corinthians 12:13. It is an instantaneous act of God and is not an experience to be sought after being born again. It is quite clear in the Bible that all true Christians are baptized by the Spirit, but all Christians did not speak in tongues. Therefore, seeking the baptism of the Spirit as a means to an unusual work of God in the life of a Christian is without scriptural foundation. Even the filling of the Spirit is not manifested in speaking in tongue but in Christian graces in the life as given in Galatians 5:22,23. The Corinthian Christians spoke in tongues without being filled by the Spirit. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is the work of the Spirit which places the believer in a new union with Christ and our fellow believers; a new intimacy in the body of Christ. It is connected with justification and all the work of God which finally presents the believer perfect in glory.
