Pickled In the Spirit
- by Troy Watson
In all four Gospels, John the Baptist introduces Jesus as the Messiah, with a specific job description. "He is the one who will baptize people with the Holy Spirit.” (MT 3:11, MK 1:8, LK 3:16, JN 1:33)
The last thing the risen Christ says to his disciples is, “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift my Father promised, which you have heard me speak about. John baptized with water, but in just a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.” (Acts 1:4-5)
