ISA 44:3  For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry 
ground; I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring, and my blessing on 
your descendants.

JOE 2:28  "And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your 
sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your 
young men will see visions.

29  Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in 
those days.

ZEC 12:10  "And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants 
of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the 
one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an 
only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son.

MAT 3:11  "I baptize you with water for repentance. But after me will come 
one who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not fit to carry. He 
will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

16  As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that 
moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a 
dove and lighting on him.

MAR 1:8  I baptize you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy 
Spirit."

LUK 3:16  John answered them all, "I baptize you with water. But one more 
powerful than I will come, the thongs of whose sandals I am not worthy to 
untie. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

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."

24:49  I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the 
city until you have been clothed with power from on high."

JOH 1:32  Then John gave this testimony: "I saw the Spirit come down from 
heaven as a dove and remain on him.

33  I would not have known him, except that the one who sent me to baptize 
with water told me, 'The man on whom you see the Spirit come down and 
remain is he who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.'

3:5  Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of 
God unless he is born of water and the Spirit.

ACT 1:5  For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be 
baptized with the Holy Spirit."

2:1  When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place.

2  Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and 
filled the whole house where they were sitting.

3  They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to 
rest on each of them.

4  All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other 
tongues as the Spirit enabled them.

38  Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name 
of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the 
gift of the Holy Spirit.

8:15  When they arrived, they prayed for them that they might receive the 
Holy Spirit,

16  because the Holy Spirit had not yet come upon any of them; they had 
simply been baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.

17  Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the 
Holy Spirit.

18  When Simon saw that the Spirit was given at the laying on of the 
apostles' hands, he offered them money

10:38  how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, 
and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power 
of the devil, because God was with him.

44  While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit came on all 
who heard the message.

45  The circumcised believers who had come with Peter were astonished that 
the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out even on the Gentiles.

47  "Can anyone keep these people from being baptized with water? They have 
received the Holy Spirit just as we have."

11:15  "As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit came on them as he had come on 
us at the beginning.

16  Then I remembered what the Lord had said: 'John baptized with water, 
but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'

19:2  and asked them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" 
They answered, "No, we have not even heard that there is a Holy Spirit."

1CO 12:13  For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body--whether 
Jews or Greeks, slave or free--and we were all given the one Spirit to 
drink.

TIT 3:5  he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but 
because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and 
renewal by the Holy Spirit,

MAT 3:6  Confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan 
River.

11  "I baptize you with water for repentance. But after me will come one 
who is more powerful than I, whose sandals I am not fit to carry. He will 
baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

13  Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John.

14  But John tried to deter him, saying, "I need to be baptized by you, and 
do you come to me?"

16  As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that 
moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a 
dove and lighting on him.

21:25  John's baptism--where did it come from? Was it from heaven, or from 
men?" They discussed it among themselves and said, "If we say, 'From 
heaven,' he will ask, 'Then why didn't you believe him?'

28:19  Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in 
the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

MAR 1:4  And so John came, baptizing in the desert region and preaching a 
baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.

5  The whole Judean countryside and all the people of Jerusalem went out to 
him. Confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan River.

8  I baptize you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."

9  At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by 
John in the Jordan.

10  As Jesus was coming up out of the water, he saw heaven being torn open 
and the Spirit descending on him like a dove.

11:30  John's baptism--was it from heaven, or from men? Tell me!"

16:16  Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not 
believe will be condemned.

LUK 3:7  John said to the crowds coming out to be baptized by him, "You 
brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath?

8  Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to 
yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our father.' For I tell you that out of 
these stones God can raise up children for Abraham.

12  Tax collectors also came to be baptized. "Teacher," they asked, "what 
should we do?"

21  When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as 
he was praying, heaven was opened

7:29  (All the people, even the tax collectors, when they heard Jesus' 
words, acknowledged that God's way was right, because they had been 
baptized by John.

30  But the Pharisees and experts in the law rejected God's purpose for 
themselves, because they had not been baptized by John.)

20:4  John's baptism--was it from heaven, or from men?"

JOH 1:25  questioned him, "Why then do you baptize if you are not the 
Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?"

26  "I baptize with water," John replied, "but among you stands one you do 
not know.

31  I myself did not know him, but the reason I came baptizing with water 
was that he might be revealed to Israel."

33  I would not have known him, except that the one who sent me to baptize 
with water told me, 'The man on whom you see the Spirit come down and 
remain is he who will baptize with the Holy Spirit.'

3:5  Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of 
God unless he is born of water and the Spirit.

22  After this, Jesus and his disciples went out into the Judean 
countryside, where he spent some time with them, and baptized.

23  Now John also was baptizing at Aenon near Salim, because there was 
plenty of water, and people were constantly coming to be baptized.

4:1  The Pharisees heard that Jesus was gaining and baptizing more 
disciples than John,

2  although in fact it was not Jesus who baptized, but his disciples.

10:40  Then Jesus went back across the Jordan to the place where John had 
been baptizing in the early days. Here he stayed

ACT 1:5  For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be 
baptized with the Holy Spirit."

22  beginning from John's baptism to the time when Jesus was taken up from 
us. For one of these must become a witness with us of his resurrection."

2:28  You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with 
joy in your presence.'

41  Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand 
were added to their number that day.

8:12  But when they believed Philip as he preached the good news of the 
kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men 
and women.

13  Simon himself believed and was baptized. And he followed Philip 
everywhere, astonished by the great signs and miracles he saw.

36  As they traveled along the road, they came to some water and the eunuch 
said, "Look, here is water. Why shouldn't I be baptized?"

37 

38  And he gave orders to stop the chariot. Then both Philip and the eunuch 
went down into the water and Philip baptized him.

9:18  Immediately, something like scales fell from Saul's eyes, and he 
could see again. He got up and was baptized,

10:37  You know what has happened throughout Judea, beginning in Galilee 
after the baptism that John preached--

47  "Can anyone keep these people from being baptized with water? They have 
received the Holy Spirit just as we have."

48  So he ordered that they be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. Then 
they asked Peter to stay with them for a few days.

11:16  Then I remembered what the Lord had said: 'John baptized with water, 
but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.'

16:15  When she and the members of her household were baptized, she invited 
us to her home. "If you consider me a believer in the Lord," she said, 
"come and stay at my house." And she persuaded us.

33  At that hour of the night the jailer took them and washed their wounds; 
then immediately he and all his family were baptized.

18:8  Crispus, the synagogue ruler, and his entire household believed in 
the Lord; and many of the Corinthians who heard him believed and were 
baptized.

25  He had been instructed in the way of the Lord, and he spoke with great 
fervor and taught about Jesus accurately, though he knew only the baptism 
of John.

19:3  So Paul asked, "Then what baptism did you receive?" "John's baptism," 
they replied.

4  Paul said, "John's baptism was a baptism of repentance. He told the 
people to believe in the one coming after him, that is, in Jesus."

5  On hearing this, they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.

22:16  And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your 
sins away, calling on his name.'

ROM 6:3  Or don't you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ 
Jesus were baptized into his death?

4  We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order 
that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the 
Father, we too may live a new life.

1CO 1:13  Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptized 
into the name of Paul?

14  I am thankful that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and 
Gaius,

15  so no one can say that you were baptized into my name.

16  (Yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I don't 
remember if I baptized anyone else.)

17  For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel--not 
with words of human wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its 
power.

10:2  They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea.

12:13  For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body--whether Jews 
or Greeks, slave or free--and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.

15:29  Now if there is no resurrection, what will those do who are baptized 
for the dead? If the dead are not raised at all, why are people baptized 
for them?

GAL 3:27  for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed 
yourselves with Christ.

EPH 4:5  one Lord, one faith, one baptism;

5:26  to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the 
word,

COL 2:12  having been buried with him in baptism and raised with him 
through your faith in the power of God, who raised him from the dead.

HEB 6:2  instruction about baptisms, the laying on of hands, the 
resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.
