Summary
This message explains why the Samaritan believers in Acts 8 did not receive the Holy Spirit immediately after Philip baptized them. The teaching argues that this happened because Yahweh honored apostolic authority during the transitional period of Acts, requiring Peter and John to come and establish the Samaritan church in order. The normal rule remains repentance, baptism in the name of Yahshua, and receiving the Holy Spirit, with true evidence shown through obedience and holiness.
