What is the baptism of the Holy Spirit?

Answered in 1 source

The baptism of the Holy Spirit is the empowering of believers for service and witness, not a subsequent experience after conversion.

The baptism of the Holy Spirit is vital for believers, as described in Acts 1:5. It occurs when the Holy Spirit comes upon a believer, empowering them for ministry and fulfilling the Great Commission. This baptism is not a secondary experience unique to a select few but is fundamental to the Christian life. It signifies the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, enabling believers to be effective witnesses of Christ in the world.
Scripture References: Acts 1:5, Matthew 28:19-20
