It traces biblical emphasis from prophetic expectations of the Last Days, to the outpouring of the Spirit, to renewed focus on Scripture and ministry. Particular attention is given to the relationship between water baptism and Holy Spirit baptism, including the order described in Acts, the issue’s relevance for today, and the pattern for
