The doctrine of the Holy Spirit and Holy Spirit baptism was preached by [[Jesus]] and [[John the Baptist]].
The doctrine of the Holy Spirit and Holy Spirit baptism was preached by [[Jesus]] and [[John the Baptist]]. According to the New Testament, Jesus after His resurrection told His disciples that they would be baptized with "The Holy Ghost", and would receive "Power (''dunamis''<ref>Dunamis is the root word of [[dynamite]].</ref>), after that the Holy Ghost [was] come upon [them]" (Acts 1:4-8). Christians believe that the Holy Spirit, guiding people in the way of the truth, produces positive results, known as the [[Fruit of the Spirit|Fruits of the Holy Spirit]].
