  1. GOD CREATED HEAVEN AND THE EARTH-everyone knows it
  2. JESUS DIED ON THE CROSS- everyone knows it
  3. WHERE IS THE WORK OF THE HOLY SPIRIT? Does everyone know it?



  1. We physically witness the work of God the Father
  2. We had about the work of Jesus Christ. Jesus came down and physical did his work
  3. Holy Spirit will do the same, because there are 3 Name that are in one God. All the 3 name and their work will be witnessed by everyone therefore where is the work of the Holy Spirit?

THE HOLY SPIRIT INDWELLS EVERY CHRISTIAN - and works His gifts through those who yield to Him as vessels.

God sent his holy spirit down to all the disciples and they were speaking in different tongue, and only the disciple where in the house.
Acts 8:14 When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to Samaria.
Acts 8 [SUP]15 [/SUP]When they arrived, they prayed for the new believers there that they might receive the Holy Spirit, [SUP]16 [/SUP]because the Holy Spirit had not yet come on any of them; they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
The bible says that, they WE baptised in the name of the lord Jesus Christ but we they did not receive Holy Spirit
Why the people/we did not receive Holy Spirit is because Jesus has promised his disciple that he will send Holy Spirit to them?
Even when they believed and peptised in the name of Jesus Christ why didn’t they receive Holy Spirit?
Because Lord Jesus Christ did not promised the entire people or the world see JOHN 14:17 [SUP]17 [/SUP]the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.
Acts 815-17[SUP]15 [/SUP]When they arrived, they prayed for the new believers there that they might receive the Holy Spirit, [SUP]16 [/SUP]because the Holy Spirit had not yet come on any of them; they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. [SUP]17 [/SUP]Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
Peter and John Placer their hands on them and they receive Holy Spirit. That indicated that they have not receive the Holy Spirit but only the disciple receive the Holy Spirit and they are the ones that can distributer Holy Spirit.
Acts 8:[SUP]15 [/SUP]When they arrived, they prayed for the new believers there that they might receive the Holy Spirit,
Acts 8: [SUP]17 [/SUP]Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
Since they are the ones that receive the Holy Spirit they have the authority to distribute the Holy Spirit.
Paul also did the same thing on the other side,
Acts 19:1-4, While Apostles was at Corinth; Paul took the road through the interior and arrived at Ephesus. There he found some disciples [SUP]2 [/SUP]and asked them, “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?”
They answered, “No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”
[SUP]3 [/SUP]So Paul asked, “Then what baptism did you receive?”
“John’s baptism,” they replied.
[SUP]4 [/SUP]Paul said, “John’s baptism was a baptism of repentance. He told the people to believe in the one coming after him, that is, in Jesus.” [SUP]5 [/SUP]On hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Acts 19:6-7 [SUP]6 [/SUP]When Paul placed his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied. [SUP]7 [/SUP]There were about twelve men in all.
Act 11:15 “As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came on them as he had come on us at the beginning. [SUP]16 [/SUP]Then I remembered what the Lord had said: ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’

They believe in Jesus but they did not receive Holy Spirit, and they did not know what Holy Spirit is all about, they just believe in Jesus Christ.
Paul placed his hands on them and prayed and they receive Holy Spirit.
That indicated the they apostles receive the Holy Spirit and distributing them.
That also indicated that the work of the apostles ceased
That also indicated that the world of the Holy Spirit stated through the apostles.
That indicted the baptism of Holy Spirit, placing the hands on people and praying over them is the baptism of Holy Spirit.
Therefore this is the condition to enter the kings of God.

  1. first we must believe in Jesus Christ (John 3:16) and (John 3:15)
  2. secondly, we must baptised in water and holy spirit (John 3:5-8)
Acts 8:1on that day a great persecution broke out against the church in Jerusalem, and all except the apostles were scattered throughout Judea and Samaria. [SUP]2 [/SUP]Godly men buried Stephen and mourned deeply for him. [SUP]3 [/SUP]But Saul began to destroy the church. Going from house to house, he dragged off both men and women and put them in prison.
Acts 8:[SUP]4 [/SUP]Those who had been scattered preached the word wherever they went. [SUP]5 [/SUP]Philip went down to a city in Samaria and proclaimed the Messiah there.
Great persecution broke out
All apostles were scattered, many have been put to death
Stephen death (acts 8:2)
James put to death by seaward (Act 12-2)
Peter was put in prison and later crucified upside down (Acts 12:4)
All the disciples died during that time, all the work of the Holy Spirit ceased,

But the question is how can we baptise in Holy Spirit to enter the kingdom of God?

If you have questions please ask me?
Or if you want me to answer the question above please ask me
 
[SUP]John 14:15-17[/SUP]
[SUP]15 [/SUP]“If you love me, you will do what I command. [SUP]16 [/SUP]I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Helper to be with you forever. [SUP]17 [/SUP]The Helper is the Spirit of truth. The people of the world cannot accept him, because they don’t see him or know him. But you know him. He lives with you, and he will be in you.

The Holy Spirit came down to the disciples and not to everyone. Therefore, they have to distribute the Holy Spirit to everyone.
The work of the Holy Spirit ceased during the time of Persecutions and at that time it was handed to the gentiles.


Act 21:10-11


[SUP]10 [/SUP]After we had been there for several days, a prophet named Agabus came from Judea. [SUP]11 [/SUP]He came to us and borrowed Paul’s belt. He used it to tie his own hands and feet. He said, “The Holy Spirit tells me, ‘This is how the Jews in Jerusalem will tie up the man who wears this belt. Then they will hand him over to people who don’t know God.’”

Isaiah 63:10
Yet they rebelled and grieved his Holy Spirit. So he turned and became their enemy and he himself fought against them.

We did not receive Holy Spirit. We have to look for the real work of Holy Spirit and receive the Holy Spirit to go to heaven. John 3:5-8, [SUP]5 [/SUP]Jesus answered, “Believe me when I say that everyone must be born from water and the Spirit. Anyone who is not born from water and the Spirit cannot enter God’s kingdom. [SUP]6 [/SUP]The only life people get from their human parents is physical. But the new life that the Spirit gives a person is spiritual. [SUP]7 [/SUP]Don’t be surprised that I told you, ‘You must be born again.’ [SUP]8 [/SUP]The wind blows wherever it wants to. You hear it, but you don’t know where it is coming from or where it is going. It is the same with everyone who is born from the Spirit.”

There are 2 precautions through the work of the Holy Spirit. One was over during the time of the apostles and the other one is yet to come.

The Firest persecute which was over

Acts 8:2-3, on that day the Jews began to persecute the church in Jerusalem, making them suffer very much. Saul was also trying to destroy the group. He went into their houses, dragged out men and women, and put them in jail. All the believers left Jerusalem. Only the apostles stayed. The believers went to different places in Judea and Samaria

Second persecute which is yet to come

Revelation 11:2
[SUP]2 [/SUP]But don’t measure the yard outside the temple. Leave it alone. It has been given to those who are not God’s people. They will show their power over the holy city for 42 months.

Revelation 11:7
When the two witnesses have finished telling their message, the beast will fight against them. This is the beast that comes up from the bottomless pit. It will defeat and kill them.
Revelation 6:8
[SUP]8 [/SUP]I looked, and there before me was a pale-colored horse. The rider on the horse was death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth—power to kill people with the sword, by starving, by disease, and with the wild animals of the earth.

Those who have the strength of the Holy Spirit will go through the persecution like the apostles in the past.
It is the work of the Holy Spirit which is the final work. Final because God the father done his work and the son also did his work and now the final work of the Holy Spirit which will be done. No one knows when the text in the revelation will bear fruit. At what specific time it will bear fruit. Only the people who are in the Last work of the Holy Spirit know then and where?


For example see revelation 11:7, Revelation 11:2, the above text.
Romans 11:17, ect……………………………..

We have to receive Holy Spirit to go into those persecutions and go into heaven.
