注意圣灵(神的灵)先降临耶稣,后在五旬节降临信徒。基督的灵不同于圣灵。
路加3
22. 圣灵降临在他身上,形状仿佛鸽子。又有声音从天上来,说,你是我的爱子,我喜悦你。
22. and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased."
徒2
3. 又有舌头如火焰显现出来,分开落在他们各人头上。
3. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them.
4. 他们就都被圣灵充满,按着圣灵所赐的口才,说起别国的话来。
4. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.
16. 这正是先知约珥所说的。
16. No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:
17. 神说,在末后的日子,我要将我的灵浇灌凡有血气的。你们的儿女要说预言。你们的少年人要见异象。老年人要作异梦。
17. "'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.
18. 在那些日子,我要将我的灵浇灌我的仆和使女,他们就要说预言。
18. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.
19. 在天上我要显出奇事,在地下我要显出神迹,有血,有火,有烟雾。
19. I will show wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke.
徒2,这里明显说神的灵是圣灵。
可见这里圣灵是为了施洗和浇灌之用,而不是基督受难复活的灵。
