So, here I sit in my livingroom at the end of the day, computer in front of me and a cold beer to my right.

I am not a drinker, never have been, have looked down on those who are drinkers, but recently, since the end of April, I have begun having a few sips of alcohol in the evening to "take the edge off".

1John 5:

Two other occasions mentioned in Acts report separate water and Spirit baptisms. One is the case of Cornelius (Acts 10:44-48) and the other is that of disciples in Ephesus (Acts 19:1-7). All the other baptisms make… Continue
