Are You Dry? Jump in the River
Global Day of Prayer. Spirit Fire Series Are you dry? Jump in the River. Who baptizes you with the Holy Spirit? Jesus In every Gospel John's baptism for repentance is compared with Jesus who will baptize you with the Holy Spirit. Matthew 3:11 John baptized you with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit. Acts 1:5 Are you ignorant of these facts? 1 Corinthians 10:1-5 One Pillar, a cloud by day and fire at night. Exodus 13:21 14:31 One Rock, but two stories separated by 40 years. Exodus 17:1-7 Numbers 20:1-13 Jesus - can you hear me now? John 7:37-39 1. If any person is thirsty 2. Come to Me and drink 3. If you believe in Me as the Bible has promised 4. Out of your inner most being will flow rivers of living water Being baptized in the Spirit means to be totally immersed by the Spirit. 1. Some people at conversion give themselves completely to God are totally immersed by the Holy Spirit. 2. Some people at conversion receive Jesus Christ but hold on to some areas of their life not willing to give themselves completely to God. 3. At a later time they give over every area of their life and experience the baptism of the Holy Spirit

The Beginning of the Gospel (Mark 1:1-15)
We are introduced to the gospel of Mark. Mark writes to prove the deity of Christ and to declare the gospel message. In the opening passage we see John prophetically preparing the people for Christ, and we see the declaration of Jesus's deity, and the beginning of the gospel message -- repent and believe!

Father, Son, Holy Spirit
Mark is a master of saying much with few words, and in this passage he emphasizes both the total humanity of Jesus and the total divinity of Jesus. Jesus, as a man, was a carpenter from Nazareth. As the second member of the Trinity, however, Jesus is the Son, the Beloved of his Father. God became man in Jesus in order to reverse the effects of the fall and to welcome us back into the community of the Trinity!

1 Peter 3:18-22 - Christian Baptism: A Comfort and Assurance in the Day of Suffering
The Christian’s baptism then is a source of great comfort. It is not a comfort because it is seen as some saving ritual. Baptism is a comfort because it reminds us that we are united with Jesus in his death, his resurrection and his reign in glory. We can be certain that we will be blessed when we suffer for righteousness’ sake, because as believers our destiny is united with Jesus Christ. If Jesus has the victory over evil spirits, then he certainly will have the victory over those who persecute us now.
