Acts 2
There are nearly 650 million Pentecostals in the world and nearly as many Evangelicals. Pentecostals believe that the Baptism in the Holy Spirit can be experienced by believers today as it happened in Acts 2. I am a Pentecostal. When I was 16 years old, I received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with evidence of speaking in tongues. I still speak in tongues. Paul said he did too … more than you all. [1 Cor. 14:18]
When our daughter Ashley was born, she experienced a laryngeal spasm whereby her throat closed up and she wasn’t breathing. The nurse in the birthing room punched the red button on the wall and within seconds, the room was filled with medical personnel. Patty was left on the birthing table, unable to do anything for her baby. I was there and began praying in my Heavenly language. We are instructed that it’s the Spirit praying through us when we don’t know how to pray. [ 1 Cor. 14:14] Ashley is wonderfully healthy today, and loves God with all her heart. She has two beautiful, healthy daughters of her own.
