Did You Receive the Holy Spirit When You Believed?

Part 31

June 19, 2022 • Mason Adair • Acts 18:19—19:7, Isaiah 40:3–5, Matthew 3:4–6, John 3:5–8, Romans 8:9–10

Give

In Acts 19, the Apostle Paul asks 12 disciples of John the Baptist, did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed? They answered no. They had only experienced the baptism of John and not the baptism of the Spirit. Jesus was the missing piece in their religious pursuit. Paul shares Jesus and they believe and receive the Holy Spirit. This message asks the same question, did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?

Nothing Will Ever Stop the Church

September 11, 2022 • Mason Adair • Acts 28, John 12:37–38

In Acts 28, Luke concludes his letter with Paul ministering in Rome under house arrest. This message reminds us that we are a part of something bigger than ourselves. God has an unstoppable Spirit-empowered plan!

Remember God's Promises

September 4, 2022 • Mason Adair • Acts 27, Job 5:7

In Acts 27, Paul encountered a ferocious storm on his voyage to Rome. During that storm, God reminded Paul that he was to stand before Caesar. When you’re in the midst of a storm, it’s easy to forget God’s promises and faithfulness. Sometimes we just need to remember what God already said.

Unplanned Detours

August 28, 2022 • Mason Adair • Acts 26, Luke 21:12–13, 2 Corinthians 4:4, Acts 25:23–27

In Acts 26, Paul defends himself from the Jewish leaders accusations to King Agrippa II. This message encourages us to see unplanned detours with spiritual value. That even the interruptions and irritations of our day could be turned for divine appointments.
