[QUOTE="BrownFlush, post: 5664435, member: 65823"] Have we had this discussion before? There are several baptisms mentioned in the NT. The purpose of water baptism is for the remission of sins. The NT teaches the Holy Spirit "resides" in the Christian. How He "dwells" in one is the debate. An actual literal indwelling? That only happened once. An incarnation had to took place. There is not one place in the NT where the personage of the Holy Spirit was ever literally "in" someone. If you know of a place in scripture where that is, please show me.He resides in us representatively through His Word. The Holy Spirit definitely "inspires" those who have been baptized. He does it the same way those who were baptized knew to do that and why. Through the avenue/instrument of His word. What has the Holy Spirit said to you, done for you, taught you, separate and apart from His word? [/QUOTE]
