In this powerful opening message on the Book of Acts, we explore what it means to be baptized with the Holy Spirit, the difference between receiving the Spirit at salvation and being empowered by the Spirit for ministry, and how the Holy Spirit leads believers into supernatural living. Pastor Kevin also unpacks the significance of Jesus' return to the Mount of Olives and highlights the importance of being Spirit-led in our daily lives.

3 Main Takeaway Points

1. Acts Is Not Over — We’re Living It Now.
Pastor Kevin emphasizes that the Book of Acts is the only New Testament book without a formal conclusion. Why? Because it’s still ongoing—through the lives of believers today. Jesus began the work, and He handed it off to His Church—to us—to carry the gospel to the ends of the earth.

2. The Baptism in the Holy Spirit Is Distinct from Salvation.
While the Holy Spirit dwells in every believer at salvation, Pastor Kevin teaches that the baptism or filling of the Holy Spirit is a separate and empowering experience for service, boldness, and supernatural ministry. It’s not a one-time event but a continual filling for ongoing work.

3. The Holy Spirit Speaks and Leads Us Today.
From Philip and Peter in the Book of Acts to personal stories of deliverance and healing today, we see that the Holy Spirit is still guiding, warning, empowering, and using believers. Pastor Kevin challenges us to be sensitive to the Spirit’s leading and not be afraid to step out in obedience.
