[@nicholasnewland8362]

The reason why it didn't happen was because I was afraid. I was timid, shy and doubtful so I wasn't confident in releasing myself especially in church. Which was where it actually happened even though I tried for it in my own time at home. So My Pastor was the one that God used to help me to overcome that wicked Spirit of fear. We were in a fasting service at church, and She was led by the Spirit to call up the men one after the other to lead a round of prayer. I wasn't expecting to be called because without the Baptism of the Holy Spirit it is customary that a person wouldn't really start to function in the church as yet. Soo I was quite comfortable in the congregation reaching out in my out little way. When suddenly out of no where My Pastor called my name to come to the front, to take the microphone and pray. My heart dropped, and I wanted to run and Hide 🤣🤣, Because I was a very shy, timid and anxious person. But I strengthen my self and took a little courage went up to the front of the Church took the microphone and started to pray and in about a minute BOOM!!💥...The Holy Spirit took over and I started to speak with other tongues. I was soo surprised, was still a little doubtful but I could feel there was a difference because I felt so light. But the stronghold of fear was broken which the Lord wanted, and as I continued to pray in the Holy Ghost, the doubt went as well. Now I'm here stronger in the Lord

Find a couple of saints that have already been baptized in the Holy Spirit and have them lay hands on you and pray for you and with you. Pray fervently to be filled with the Holy Spirit until the Lord answers your prayer and fills you ( You will know when it happens). Then open your mouth and relax your tongue. This is the equivalent of yielding your tongue to the Holy Spirit. Continue doing so until the Spirit takes control of it, " tames" it, and gives you the ability to speak in tongues. That is what begins the fillings overflow which is what Spirit baptism is.

[16] The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God: [17] And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together. One only receives the Holy Ghost/Spirit if God permits. John 1:11-13 KJVS [11] He came unto his own, and his own received him not. [12] But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: [13] Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

The Word says " He that hath not the Spirit of Christ is none of his".( Rom.8:9). When we first believe, repent and are water baptized in the name of Jesus Christ we are in the process of being saved because being saved is being born again. We must then pray fervently to be filled with the Holy Spirit until He answers your prayer and fills you. Then yield your tongue to the Spirit until He takes control of your tongue and enables you to speak in tongues. That is the Spirit baptism and how we recieve the Holy Spirit.

I love Derek's teachings. Like all people, however, he is not perfect, so I feel only slightly sad that I must disagree with two points he made in the first couple minutes of the video. While we cannot put God in a box as He can Sovereignly do things out of the norm, we cannot use either Acts 1:8 or Acts 10 (Cornelius) as examples to underlie a second method (laying on of hands being the first) of receiving the Baptizing (n.) of the Holy Ghost subsequent to salvation. With Cornelius, God most likely did the HG baptizing directly because of those "of the circumcision" (10:45; Hebraic Jews) who were present, and whose ingrained traditions of belief would have precluded them from believing a non-Hebrew could be so blessed. Peter MIGHT have had enough faith all by himself to lay on hands for their receiving, but the others not. And having God do it directly was more convincing than if Peter had administered it (you know, like how many cessationists believe such a manifestation to be false). On Pentecost, they of course HAD to receive it directly because no one else had it, no laying on of hands available from anyone. Therefore, we could further classify Acts 10 as the Gentile's Pentecost?? My second disagreement is Derek's claim of the main reason for the Baptizing of the Holy Ghost being to transfer God's Power. Such was of course in part true of those given the Acts 1:8 promise, but it is the height of presumption to carry this over and apply it to all instances of a second blessing for all people. It strokes the ego, but.... The cessationist by and large knows full well that the vast majority of charismatics do not have some greater degree of power. Those of us charismatic should stop making such an erroneous claim of ourselves. We [hopefully] know it's not true. Such a greater degree of power IS available separately and in addition to the charismata blessing, as I further expound on X. For those at Pentecost this was manifested concurrently, but rarely done otherwise. We are not islands onto ourselves but rather parts of a Body who need one another. If at all possible, and for most it is, we should expect we need another who has the charismata blessing to lay hands on us for same. That said, it's not unusual for the manifestation to appear later, whether minutes or hours or days or.... I thank God for these blessed videos.

When you read the books of the New Testament you have probably asked yourself many times: "Why is it that for 2000 years we have not seen the miracles that accompanied the Church of Christ in the first century as the New Testament describes them? Why is it that so-called preachers of Christ have to prove that Jesus really existed, while atheists have the audacity to deny the historicity or divine origin of Christ? Maybe because the Church of Christ ceased to exist after the first century. There is no Church as it is described in the books of the New Testament, but there are Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant and other Christian sects, claiming to be the Church, but not having that one thing that distinguishes the divine from the human and is characteristic only for the Church of Christ - the backing of the word with signs, that is, miracles (Mk 16:15-20). That is why part of the researchers doubt the historicity of Christ, and part of them do not mind to declare Him a real person, but an ordinary philosopher, a teacher. But even if Jesus was an ordinary philosopher, His disciples would have been ordinary followers of Jesus. And they would not have dared to write about the miracles that not only Jesus but also His disciples could perform. If in our time there were a Church as described by the authors of the New Testament books, where miracles are performed - healing the sick, prophesying, raising the dead - no one would doubt the historicity of Christ. Then all over the world there would be the same disputes as in the first century - Jesus is the Son of God or a false prophet who seduces the world with miracles. Find on youtube the message *"The Mystery of the Church of Christ"* . It reveals the prophecy of the disappearance and reappearance of the Church of Christ before the End of the World, giving hope to all who are sincerely seeking God and who are not lazy to think freely.

[@claudiozanella256]

Jesus states that "God is a spirit". That Spirit is simply called "the Spirit of God" aka "the Holy Spirit". (The almighty God of course is the Father.) The Holy Spirit is inside Jesus ("...filled with the Holy Spirit, Jesus..."). Well, Jesus tells us who is that Holy Spirit and He is NOT THE "LORD WHO GIVES LIFE". Jesus confirms that He is the Father instead "The words I say to you, I say not on my own but from the FATHER WHO DWELLS IN ME.". Also the apostles will be helped in the same manner by the Father - who is a spirit - "...SPIRIT OF YOUR FATHER which speaks through you.". When Jesus was baptized, the Holy Spirit - i.e. the Father who is a spirit - SAID "...you are my beloved Son...". The Father also existed in his "normal form", but no one ever saw Him "the world has not known you". The Spirit of God COMES FROM HIM.

[@claudiozanella256]

@@rena19872007 Thx. Here you can have further information concerning my theory. In particular you can see why 1. Jesus is God (despite not being omnipotent) 2. Jesus is the Owner and King of heaven and not God 3. 4. who is the Spirit of God 5. what is the difference between the Father and the Son.....Jesus is in the Father and the Father is in Him. Correct. Why? For logical reasons, the almighty God cannot be here among us with his power, to do his work now, in real time. (Difficult to explain, I will make a video about this topic in the near future). This means that the almighty God has in reality already COMPLETED his work in a DISTANT PAST (but only from HIS POINT OF VIEW, not from yours !!!). "Completed" indeed means "completed in all respects", He could even have gone away!! But He didn't go away, He became like a man instead: "the Son of God" (with no power at all). This means that the Son is in reality now ALONE and is the only OWNER of everything, "the King of heaven". This all means that the almighty God cannot be here because He belongs to the past "The world has not known you" "No man has seen God at any time." . However - due to his power - even from that past - God can observe us and be here with his actions and his words. God is present here with his actions, He INTERACTS with us, but NOBODY is here in reality. This corresponds to the presence of a spirit ("God is a spirit"). He is the Spirit of God. Thus, the Three Persons are in reality just TWO because NO ONE is here; just the POWER of God is here, alone. "The Son is in the Father and the Father in the Son" thus means that the Son DERIVES from the Father, this is why He is called "SON", He is no "ACTUAL Son". The Son is thus at the same time NOT DISTINCT from the Father because "He is in the Father and the Father is in Him" yet He is also DISTINCT from the Father, since the Father is the almighty God - even if in the form of a spirit - and Jesus is like a normal man now, with no power at all ("the Father is greater than I"). We could thus say that God is more than One and less than Two in number. God bless you.

I have seen many people who lay hands and conduct special holy spirit anointing meetings, deceiving believers with wrong teachings and practises. From what I understand, gift of tongues is a twin gift- one being the ability to speak real languages that one wouldn't even have heard before, IN PUBLIC; the other being the 'gibberish' spoken IN PRIVATE during personal prayers. As with laying of hands, I hope nobody ends up letting the wrong person lay hands upon them.

[@robertnieten7259]

There are three operations of speaking in tongues: 1) The first evidence that a believer has recieved the Holy Spirit and the born again believers' private prayer language for personal edification 2) The gift of speaking in tongues which is always to be accompanied by a belever with the gift of interpretation of tongues for the edification of a church gathering. 3) A sign to unbelievers. The believer speaks in the spiritual language that our English translation calls " tongues"and the unbeliever hears what they are saying in their native language as a sign to them.

@@arkshisha I agree that when a believer recieves the Holy Spirit there is a renovation of character. What I am saying is that recieving the indwelling of the Spirit is so crucial to our salvation that God doesn't leave it up to us or anyone else to say when exactly we recieve but provides a supernatural sign the moment we recieve to confirm it and that is speaking in tongues. I was aware of the Holy Spirits presence near me and in being filled with the Spirit before I ever recieved the permanent indwelling. Without the sign I could easily have been convinced that I had already recieved when I hadn't.

Recieving the Holy Spirit is too crucial to our salvation for God to let anyone, including ourselves, to say when we have recieved so He gives the sign of speaking in tongues to confirm it. I was aware of the Spirits' presence near me and was filled with the Holy Spirit before I ever recieved the Spirit.

This is error.I’m sorry to hear this from someone I thought was scriptural.

As the church perished the baptism of the Spirit was aborted.

[@tawandajones957]

If you have received Jesus as your Lord and savior, you are saved. You just haven't been baptized in the holy ghost yet. But you do have the Holy spirit given to you once you believe in Jesus and accept him as your savior.

I pray that True Believers in Christ Jesus and in His sending the Holy Spirit do not take the Gift of “Speaking in Tongues “ lightly as many in the various Christian Denominations Do!! That Foolish Gibberish of speaking in a Completely indiscernible language and sound, that comes across like a sort of psychobabble is DEFINITELY NOT THE SAME GIFT OF SPEAKING IN TONGUES AS WHAT OCCURRED ON PENTECOST IN THE UPPER ROOM ! The Gift of Speaking in Tongues is having the ability to speak MIRACULOUSLY AND SUDDENLY in many different languages so that multitudes in Crowds of Different Cultures and Ethnic Backgrounds Can UNDERSTAND YOU FOR YIU CAN SUDDENLY SPEAK IN THEIR NATIVE TONGUE!!! May God’s Word Not Return Unto Him Void. and May it produce the Fruit of The Vine of Souls for His Son; Our Lord and Savior Yeshua Ha Maschiach!!!

That's just part of it but read and study 1 Corn 14.. He that speaks in an unknown tongues speak not unto men but unto God Speaks mysteries in the Spirit, edify hinself.. He that speaks in tongues should pray for interpretation. Speaking in tongues is a sign to believers...... Most "abuse" the gift of tongues in a gathering... But according to 1 corn 14 the writer encourage this practice , as he concluded, that in his prayer closet he speaks a lot in an unknown tongue

[@SGOV86]

Agree. But not only the gift of God should be taking lightly. None if the gift should be taking lightly.

I will pray with the spirit, and I will pray with the understanding also: I will sing with the spirit, and I will sing with the understanding also. 16 Else when thou shalt bless with the spirit, how shall he that occupieth the room of the unlearned say Amen at thy giving of thanks, seeing he understandeth not what thou sayest? 17 For thou verily givest thanks well, but the other is not edified. 18 I thank my God, I speak with tongues more than ye all: 19 Yet in the church I had rather speak five words with my understanding, that by my voice I might teach others also, than ten thousand words in an unknown tongue. 20 Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men. 21 In the law it is written, With men of other tongues and other lips will I speak unto this people; and yet for all that will they not hear me, saith the Lord. 22 Wherefore tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not: but prophesying serveth not for them that believe not, but for them which believe. 23 If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad? 24 But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all: 25 And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth. 26 How is it then, brethren? when ye come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a tongue, hath a revelation, hath an interpretation. Let all things be done unto edifying. 27 If any man speak in an unknown tongue, let it be by two, or at the most by three, and that by course; and let one interpret. 28 But if there be no interpreter, let him keep silence in the church; and let him speak to himself, and to God. 29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge. 30 If any thing be revealed to another that sitteth by, let the first hold his peace. 31 For ye may all prophesy one by one, that all may learn, and all may be comforted. 32 And the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets. 33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints. 34 Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience as also saith the law. 35 And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church. 36 What? came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only? 37 If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord. 38 But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant. 39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy, and forbid not to speak with tongues. 40 Let all things be done decently and in order. Thank You Wendy Ann, I’m quite Familiar with Corinthians ( Well the Entire KJV Bible Really). Speaking in “Tongues is NOT for the Believers “!! Try Researching your own Source that I’ve printed for you Here. Corinthians1:14 v;22.... PROPHESYING IS!!! Draw Closer to JESUS, and you will learn that “THIS NEW WAVE PENTECOSTAL TONGUES NONSENSE IS NOT I REPEAT NOT A HOLY SPIRIT BORN GIFT; BUT A TRICK OF THE FATHER OF LIES....

Question? If The Holy Spirit only comes down from God at Pentecost why would we need to lay hands to receive the Holy Spirit?

[@Cross.Ministry]

From what I’ve witnessed and heard; the baptism of the Holy Spirit can come in various ways. Even when Peter was preaching the gospel in Acts 10:44 to the gentiles the Holy Spirit came upon them through faith and hearing! I would just tell someone to follow all the commands to receiving the Holy Spirit; believe in Jesus’ gospel, have faith in him, repent, be water baptized in His name, ask for the Holy Spirit, have someone lay hands, and through all this you will receive the power!

[@MyRoBeRtBaKeR]

@@Cross.Ministry So according to what I gather from you, anyone can lay hands on anyone and they have the power to give the Holy Ghost? Even then this is not how you receive the Holy Ghost, only by conversion to the faith can one receive the Holy Ghost, not laying on of hands, only God. There is absolutely no evidence of one person in the world today with such an indwelling of the Holy Spirit. Paul taught Timothy tha laying on of hands is not to be used so expediently;1 Timothy 5:22 NASB 22 Do not lay hands upon anyone too quickly, and [a]thereby share responsibility for the sins of others; keep yourself [b]free from sin. See, here Paul warns Timothy to not be so quick to lay hands on and ANOINT elders or you could be partakers of their sin. Why? Because only God knows their heart and gives as He wills and this is His will Acts 15:8 “And God, which knoweth the hearts, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, even as he did unto us;” Every time, God and God only bares witness and gives His Spirit Do you realize how abundant the Holy Spirit would have been at the pouring out of Him? Not only was He in the Apostles abundantly, but they were also appointed to establish the church in faith. It was so abundant in Peter that believers merely had to walk in his shadow and be healed, who can say that today? What we do know is that anyone who has been saved will bear the fruit of the Holy Spirit. A bad tree can not produce good fruit. Not to mention, not everyone that confesses is saved. Only God will know the heart of man. I would tell them to believe in their hearts and confess with their lips, and this alone will witness to God their faith.
