NOTE OF THE BAPTISM OF THE SPIRIT:

Ye shall be baptized with (in) the Holy Ghost not many days hence. Acts 1:5

On the day of Pentecost while the apostles and disciples (all Jews) were gathered

the Holy Ghost fell on them. (Those baptized believers already had the Holy Ghost)

They all spoke in another tongue (or another language) wherein they were born.

Not an unknown tongue at all, but in common language

that they were born and then it names all the languages used there.

A goodly number. This was a prophecy fulfilled that day and prophesied by Joel.

In Acts 2:32 this Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.

Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted,

and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this,

which ye now see and here. To shed fourth is to pour out.

The out pouring of the Holy Spirit and giving the Comforter

were widely distinct from one another,

they are as far apart as the East is from the West.

The out pouring is a promise of the Father.

The promise of the Comforter was made by the Son previous to his death.

The promise of the outpouring at Pentecost was made eight hundred years before our Lord was born.

The promise of the Comforter was made directly and individually by the Lord Himself.

The promise of Pentecost was made by the Father through Joel and that is spoken by the prophet Joel.

Acts 2:16 Note: The Holy Spirit came upon them (from the outside).

He sat upon them,

we are born with the Spirit and by the Spirit, Born Again.

Court Fence:

I. Ex 27:9-19; Ex 38:9-17

II. 175 feet long; 87 1/2 feet wide

Held up by 60 pillars; 20 on each side 10 on each end Fence made of white linen

Eastern end had 4 pillars that formed the gate of the entrance into the court.

The camp outside was the dwelling of man

The tabernacle inside the fence was the dwelling of God

The court fence occupied a definite position between God and man

Jesus, the dividing line between God and man

The court fence so divided the people that there were only two people:

Those who had access to the tabernacle. In Christ.

Those that did not have access to the tabernacle. In sin.

The only difference between those on the inside and the ones on the outside

is their relation to the fence (not morals)

Fence---Christ as mediator I Tim 2:5; Heb 8:6

Mediator:

A mediator is one who takes an office between two parties

A go between.

One who must offer something to satisfy both parties.

In satisfying the claims of each the mediator becomes one who reconciles

Christ----Mediator in these aspects
