Q

divisions within evangelicalism

*non-Pentecostals/charismatics: at the time of of a person conversion God baptizes that new believer with the H.S. (at the same time that he regenerates (not subsequent), justifies, adopts, unifies us with Christ, converts us

A
  1. no subsequent baptism of the Holy Spirit, but simultaneous with these other mighty acts of God
  2. Speaking in Tongues - does not necessarily result in speaking in tongues
    - speaking in tongues is the at best the result of peer pressure or demonic activity
  3. No miraculous sign gifts being assigned to the church today.
    - does not mean that God cannot do miraculous activity (not through people who are gifted with these gifts)
    - none of these gifts are being distributed by the Holy Spirit in the church today
    - these gifts were reserved to the early church: bore testimony to the gospel, gospel messengers

Q

the personality of the Holy Spirit

What are the difficulties involved with the Holy Spirit?

A
  1. KJV - calls the third person of the Trinity - the Holy Ghost- not helpful because we think of casper; don’t use this expression
    - ghost is frightfully close to spook (Karl Bart) not good for you or your congregation - do not use this expression
  2. Holy Spirit identified as power - becomes some kind of impersonal force (the strength behind the Christians, the energy to dispense to others. he manifests himself in very powerful visible ways.. these do not help us see that the Holy Spirit is a perosn)
  3. the biblical speaking of the Holy Spirit is less frequent than God the Son and God the Father
    - easy to grasp the nature of Father and Son, harder to grasp the nature of the Holy Spirit
