does your church teach baptism by water and spirit?

Yes. The Baptism Of Repentance In The Name Of The Father And Of The Son And Of The Holy Ghost Declaring A Clear Conscience Before God. This Baptism Of Jesus Was To Fulfill All Righteousness. And The Baptism Of The Holy Spirit - Speaking In Tongues And Various Other Giftings.

Baptism Like Sabbath Days Is A Controversial Subject In Many Churches. Some Teach Only Water Baptism And Deny The Holy Spirit Thinking God Is Some Kind Of Energy.

But It Is By The Spirit Of God That We Receive Power To Overcome Sin And Temptation And Live Holy And Upright And Godly Lives In This Age.

The Book Of The Acts Of The Holy Spirit Gives Clear Examples Both Baptisms Fulfill Righteousness. And Many Use The Argument Of The Thief On The Cross Beside Jesus To Negate Water Baptism.

A Useless Argument However Because Jesus Was Still Alive And It Was Not Until After He Was Raised From The Dead That Men Were Given The Holy Spirit.

I Still Have Not Grasped It Fully Understanding The Reasoning. However This I Do Know. A Year After Receiving The Holy Spirit With Deep Conviction I Was Instructed To Be Baptized In Water. So I Called My Pastor And To My Amazement He Said, Yes We Are Having A Baptismal Service This Weekend.

That Also Brings To Mind Another Testimony Of The Holy Spirit Guiding. I Had A Job. Working Seven Days A Week. Twelve Hours A Day. Brand New Just Started Working A Couple Weeks. And I Was Told. Quit Your Job And Go To Church. You Know Stubborness Eh? I Cant Quit I Just Started. I Cant Quit The Other Man Relies On Me. Excuses. Excuses... But God Has A Way Of Getting His Will No Matter What! So...

So... I Called My Boss And Said, No Hard Feelings I Have To Quit The Job. I Cannot Explain Why. That Sunday I Went To Service And Took Communion For The First Time. And To Describe What Happened It Was Like A Rush Of Life Entered Me. For God Had Said, Quit Your Job And Go To Church. He Knew What He Had Planned! Then...

Then I Went Back Home. A Two Hour Drive From My Home Church. And I Was Wondering... Now What? I Have No Job! So I Called My Boss Back Being Off Work Less Than A Week And Asked If They Needed Anyone. To My Amazement Again This Was What They Said. The Guy We Hired To Replace You Cut His Hand And Refused To Work. So I Got My Job Back. God Has A Way Of Getting His Way. Make Sure You Listen When He Calls And Give Him Answer. Yes. I Will Go. Send Me. Then Do It. Even Unto Death. God Bless.

my church repentance baptism in JESUS CHRIST for the remission of sin being filled with the HOLY GHOST with speaking in tongues as evidence

Amen. In Acts You Will Find Both Cases. Water Baptism Both Before And After Receiving The Holy Spirit. It Is The Spirit That Gives Life. It Is The One Baptism Guaranteeing Our Inheritance.

i agree

I Think I Should Clarify This Subject Of Baptism For Anyone Who May Have Doubts Of What The One Baptism In Ephesians 4:5 Is... Romans 6:4 We Were Therefore Buried With Him Through Baptism Into His Death...1Corinthians 12:13...By One Spirit Into One Body...In Order That Just As Christ Was Raised From The Dead Through The Glory Of The Father, We Too May Live A New Life...We Were All Given One Spirit To Drink. 1Peter 3:21 This Water Symbolizes Baptism That Now Saves You Also-Not The Removal Of Dirt From The Body But The Pledge Of A Clear Conscience Toward God. It Saves You By The Resurrection Of Jesus Christ. : Christs Example: Matthew 3:16 Colossians 2:12 Having Been Buried With Him In Baptism And Raised With Him Through Your Faith In The Power Of God, Who Raised Him From The Dead. Acts 10:47 Can Anyone Keep These People From Being Baptized With Water? They Have Received The Holy Spirit Just As We Have.v. 48 So He Ordered That They Be Baptized In The Name Of Jesus Christ.

The Baptism Of The Holy Spirit Is Circumcision. It Is The Cutting Away Of The Flesh And Its Desires. It Is Putting On The New Self-Clothed-With Christ. It Is The Circumcision Of The Heart Done By The Spirit. So The One Baptism Is Water Baptism... John 3:4,5 ... Born Of Water... Just As A Womans Water Breaks Before Childbirth... And Born Of The Spirit... Male Children Circumcised After Eight Days.
