Bible Q & A
Messiah and the Holy Spirit
This article explains that Scripture presents Jesus in a twofold role regarding the Holy Spirit: first, as the Messiah who is uniquely anointed and empowered by the Spirit in his earthly ministry, and second, as the exalted Lord who baptizes believers in the Holy Spirit. Drawing from both Old and New Testament passages, it shows that the Spirit rests upon Christ and is then poured out through him to his people, fulfilling God’s promises of renewal, empowerment, and new-covenant life.
