In Philippians 3:10, the Apostle Paul expresses his heartfelt desire, “that I may know Him (Christ).” Paul had known Christ for many years as his Savior and Lord, so what did he mean? Paul desired to know Jesus Christ more deeply through experiencing a close, personal relationship with Him on a daily basis. In this series of Bible messages, we explore how we, as believers in Christ, can experience this same thing in our own lives.
These Bible messages entitled “Knowing Christ” were preached by Pastor Gregg Bing in 2021 during the morning worship services at Grace Bible Church in Fort Worth, TX.

Christ Baptizing with the Holy Spirit - Part 2
Christ's baptizing with the Holy Spirit took place on the day of Pentecost. While the coming of the Holy Spirit into the world certainly affects believers in this present dispensation of grace, this baptism had special meaning for Israel, and, in particular, was needed to prepare Jesus' twelve apostles for their ministry during the Acts period. In this lesson, we look at the events that set the stage for Pentecost and how they all point to God's dealings with Israel and His offer to them of the restoration of their kingdom.
