Indwelling of the Holy Spirit This notion of limiting the "Baptism of the Holy Spirit" to the apostles ONLY was a false theology developed last century to refute modern day Pentecostals and Charismatics who claim to have miraculous power of the Holy Spirit like the first century church.

In Christianity today, too many people allege that an apostolic or other early state of affairs had existed, without substantiation from original contemporary sources. All teaching and practice must be affirmatively proved from the best evidence available. Otherwise, any sort of statement can be made about anything, and that which can prove anything proves nothing. Nor is a nineteenth- or twentieth-century Bible commentary or declaration an admissible source of evidence. Because long-lost documents from ancient Christian times are being discovered every two decades or so, we in the twenty-first century know more about the earliest period than did the near-modern commentators.
