    Meaning Baptism of the Holy Spirit

    High Nehemiah. Sorry ... the Pentecostal church DID NOT invent that TERM. Jesus DID ... He said He would BAPTIZE the believers. Yes. I agree the repentant person will be BORN OF THE SPIRIT ... like Jesus told Nicodemus ... and the woman at the Well. You have to wrestle with John 20.22 [...
