Baptism of the Spirit

"Differing exegesis and theological debate must not be allowed to obscure the primary truth: that the Spirit of the living Christ seeks to enrich, enable, empower, and use Christians in every generation...How we describe the experience is less important than that we open mind, heart, and will to the power and joy which the Spirit offers to confer. The contemporary church and the modern world sadly need Christians baptized with the Spirit."

- R.E.O. White
, Evangelical Dictionary of Theology, 122.
