Day 88. How do you receive the Holy Spirit?

Today is day 88 and we are on the Third Article of the Apostles' Creed. Today we are on the thirteenth line: “I believe in the Holy Spirit”.

88. How do you receive the Holy Spirit?

The Scriptures teach that, by repenting and being baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ, I am forgiven my sins and I receive the Holy Spirit, who gives me new birth in Christ and frees me from the power of sin. (Luke 11:11–13; John 3:1–7; Acts 2:38; 8:14–17; 19:1–6; 1 Corinthians 6:9–11; 12:13; 2 Timothy 1:6–7)

We will conclude today with Prayer 97. Preparation for Personal Prayer found on page 675 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
