An early Christian heresy around 160 CE
They believed that divine revelation (through the H.S)
was taking place right there among them and expected
the end times to come very soon. The church father Tertullian became a montanist in his
later years.

You can get more of the Holy Spirit by being
filled with the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 5:18).
Allowing differing viewpoints on baptism in
the H.S. is subsequent to conversion
Differing in tongues is a sign of BHS ( it ispossible to receive the baptism and not speak in tongues)
NOT forming their own denomination

(The Third Wave or the Vineyard mt)
Third renewal movement by Prof. C. Peter Wagner at
Fuller Seminary in 1980s
1) It is a renewal and revival movement2) It is based on experience rather than Scripture
3) Unity is far more important than doctrine (their
doctrine can vary widely) Unity is built through
relationships, not doctrine.

After becoming Christians, some experience a
spiritual renewal that Bible Study and prayer became
more meaningful and effective !

1. Is it a Baptism in the H.S?
2. When are Christians baptized in the
H.S? only at conversion or anytime after
conversion?

Pentecostal view: BHS is repeatable and it is associated
with the speaking of tongues
Supportive evidences:
1. Disciples were converted before the Pentecost, Jesusbreathed the Spirit on them (Jn.20:22)
2. Jesus told them to wait for the Spirit (Acts 1:4)
3. H.S. came later on Pentecost. (Acts 2:4)
4. Some believers experience much more power after
conversionBHS?

1. Samaritans converted by Philip and
received H.S. later by Peter. (Acts 8:17)
2. Believers in Ephesus did not receive
H.S. at conversion and Paul prayed and
H.S. came to baptize them. (Acts 19:6)

View of the Evangelistic churches
1. BHS= joining the church and become member of
Christ at conversion
(1 Cor.12:13)2. Pentecost was a historic event; a fulfillment of a
promise; a transition from old covenant to new
covenant. This is a unique point in history...
nonrepeatable.

3. The incident in John 20 was a prolepticoccurrence; a symbol. Just like the last
supper.
BUT
How should we understand the experience
of much more power from the H.S.
Stay tune for next week

Jesus and the apostles met the needs of people by
healing, casting out demons, and even raising the
dead. These miracles made people interested in the
Good News. This is how we should evangelizetoday.
