  • PP201 Why Johnny Can Preach
    May 26 2025
    Even though the baptism in the Spirit happened a long time ago at Pentecost, it has massive significance for Christian life today. Because the Lord Jesus Christ poured out his Spirit on his people 2,000 years ago, every Christian has the Holy Spirit living inside them as a permanent reality. And one of the things the Spirit does is help all of us—male and female, young and old—to be witnesses of Christ. Whether you're with a friend on a study break, or getting ready to tell your testimony at a camp fire or gospel service, the Spirit of God can fill you with power to speak highly of Jesus Christ.

    What famous Christian wrote, "When I turn my eyes within,
 all is dark, and vain, and wild;
 Filled with unbelief and sin,
 can I deem myself a child?" And could someone who struggled with doubts like that ever produce theologically profound poetic verse that would encourage Christians for centuries?
