Sacraments - Part 1

Acts 10:44-47

While Peter was still speaking these things, the holy

Spirit fell upon all who were listening to the word. The

circumcised believers who had accompanied Peter

were astounded that the gift of the holy Spirit should

have been poured out on the Gentiles also, for they

could hear them speaking in tongues and glorifying God.

Then Peter responded, "Can anyone withhold the water

for baptizing these people, who have received the holy

Spirit even as we have?"

Titus 3:5

... not because of any righteous deeds we had done but

because of his mercy, he saved us through the bath of

rebirth (baptism) and renewal by the holy Spirit.
