(KJV) Acts 1:4
And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me.
GIFT MY FATHER PROMISED / ACTS 1:4
The gift that God the Father promised (Joel 2:28-29; Matthew 3:11) is the baptism in the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:5). The fulfillment of that promise is described as being “filled with the Holy Spirit” (Acts 2:4). This means that being “baptized in the Spirit” and “filled with the Spirit” are at times used in place of one another in Acts. However, not every reference to being filled with the Spirit is speaking of the baptism in the Holy Spirit. This baptism in the Holy Spirit is not the same as receiving the Holy Spirit, which happens at the point when a person accepts Christ’s forgiveness, yields his or her life to Him and becomes spiritually “saved.” These are two distinct works of the Spirit, sometimes separated by a period of time.
