The Filling of the Spirit for Prophecy

The Filling of the Spirit for Prophecy Excerpt With the coming of the Holy Spirit came also enablement to communicate God’s message supernaturally ( Acts  2:4 ). The believers were filled with the Spirit for the specific function of proclaiming the gospel ( 2:11 ). The disciples were all filled with the Spirit, baptized into the body of Christ, and  indwelt by the Holy Spirit ( 1 Cor.  12:13 ; cf .  Ezek. 36:27 ;  John 14:17 ). Luke’s Gospel presented people being filled with the Spirit to speak ( Luke  1:41–42 ,  67 ). But the difference in Acts from the early chapters of Luke is the speaking in foreign languages— “in other languages.”   More Hughes, Robert B., and J. Carl Laney.  Tyndale Concise Bible Commentary .
