Description
Product Overview
In the Gospel of Luke, John the Baptist issues a profound prophecy: the coming Messiah will baptize with “the Holy Spirit and fire.” While often clouded by modern misconceptions and emotionalism, the biblical reality of this statement carries eternal weight.
The Dual Baptism is a comprehensive digital study package designed to provide clarity on one of the most misunderstood passages in the New Testament. This curriculum moves beyond surface-level interpretations to explore the sharp distinction between the regenerative work of the Spirit and the impending fire of divine judgment. Through a meticulous examination of Luke 3:16–17, students will gain a deeper understanding of Christ’s role as both Savior and Judge.
