Baptism in Fire

[Sanoy]

I would like to hear your experiences in this if you are willing to share it. Note I am referring to the Baptism of the Holy Spirit.

Turn off any distractions, close your eyes, and bring back to mind the moments before you were baptisted by the Spirit. Recall the sounds, the smells and the atmosphere. Now move the scene forward to the moment the baptism began. Describe everything that you felt during that instance. Did you feel touched by anything, did you feel anything moving through your body, did you feel fire, what did it feel like, in what way did the fire move etc. Did the scope of your consciousness change, did it expand or contract, in what ways etc. Try to recall the experience through all of your senses.

 

[Greg J.]

The baptism in fire is experiencing fleshly death. It is whatever you lose through God's sanctification and may be a reference to just when it is painful. Perhaps you are thinking of the baptism of the Holy Spirit?

Thanks for the correction. I mean the Holy Spirit, I'll edit it. I'd like to hear both if available, but specifically I'm looking at the Holy Spirit baptism.
